hi is there anyway I can save threads like this one - so i dont have to trawl through the lists to get to it? Im new so im clueless.
Thanks:)So finally debt free and it feels amazing however continuing here to stay debt free.Next declutter house and body and finally swim under that waterfall x0 -
This is an excellent idea and I would like to participate! I often neglect to 'chip' away at debt, thinking it won't make much difference in the grand scheme of things but my current repayment plans are obviously not making a dent in the debt so time for a new strategy in 2012!
Think I will make Friday my payment day - so here goes - lets see what I can clear this year!0 -
Oooh, I like this a lot! Can I join in too??Don't be 'Good' - Be 'Amazing'0

Oooh I'm going to join this, this sounds like a GREAT idea. Especially when my debtors allow me to pay online
I will add to my signature now!SAVINGS: £63.86 // £3,0000 -
Hey
Can I join in.... **whispers** I have a few CCs that need clearing, really should clear them before I tackle the mortgage!!
I have been lax in my MSE ways, well I'm fine, still in my budget but I'm starting to waste money again... which is a slippery slope!
I will try to round down my current account each week, just to the nearest £5 or £10. Then the last week of the month I can move any money left over to start clearing the card!
I don't think it should matter how much each payment is, just as long as I don't miss one!
I will clear out and update my sig later!
