I'm not counting mine. When I earn over £15k a year I'll think about including it. But not now.

Oh God I didn't even think about including mine! It's HUGE! But it comes straight out of my wages so it doesn't even affect my budgeting that I've done. I plan to pay off CC, then save a little bit and overpay my mortgage a little each month, then look at car and student loan, as they don't actually affect things too badly.

A NSD for me today

Jakes Mum - glad the party went well

Rosiest - well done, that's fab news.

Recurrent Ostrich - Fabulous, you deserve it :T

Dorset Girl - we also have problems with the thicker paper although I usually buy from B&M's £1.99 for 9 rolls and that's pretty good.

The wfc have put £534 in my bank which I can use towards my dh's tax bill, it's a shame that I can't pay a debt off with it but at least it means I can avoid adding it to a credit card That was a real welcome payment. Hopefully, I'll be able to make another extra payment to something this month but then it'll be minimum payments whilst I pay for our first holiday abroad for 25 years!

Hi there not managed to get on for a few days as I was away for a couple of nights but since I am a so committed to being debt free I did only manage to spend £42.80 and that included our meals and drinks in the bar, the rest of the time we used the free facilities, I am really pleased as normally I would spend a fortune when away.

Anyway while I have been away I have had £329.32 taken off my bank in DD so my new total is:

#259 £1021.27/£12477.37

I am nearly at my target of clearing off £1039.79 a month in order to be debt free by the end of the year.

OOOO reading this thread does really inspire you.

Keep up the good work everyone.

Haha I dunno but it does come in handy for eBaying things!! I sold a dress last night for more than I bought it in the shop for only £1 more, but still :rotfl:

I'm really happy with my ebay listings after all the kerfuffle the other night as everything that sold has now been paid for, plus I posted most of it earlier today AND I've paid another £50 off my credit card which means I'm only £25 off 50% total paid which is blood amazing for January!! Hoping that when my Paypal & Quidco money actually lands in my account I'll be able to top that off and still buy food until payday!
