    brilliant work guys, ive put 30p in my tin lol

    cant wait til payday to get another chunk paid off, luckily my family know my focus is on shifting the albatross so its not going to slow down at christmas for me.

    Have got my list ready of everyone who's posted in this thread so all prepped for totals to be declared, getting closer to the countdown now. I will be sad to see mine go but happy that my sig will be that amount lower. Might pay homage to it with the room ive now got in my sig lol.

    I have just found this thread and think it sounds fantastic, this is something I want to do for 2013, but I am going to start right now :-) No time like the present when it comes to debt :-) I hope you don't mind me joining you so late in the year :-)
    Don't turn a slip up into a give up:D

    forgot to post last week :mad: overpaid credit card by £10.00 last week and have overpaid another £20.00 this week

    so £30.00 in total.

    I wish it could be more but I do overpay my credit card by £60.00 each month anyway so not doing too badly. Should I include that in my signature I wonder?

    Keep up the good work guys
