I did this purposefully to get me under £12k (£11,999.99) which is for the first time in 7 years!!!
Well done you!!! I try and do the same to bring my figures under a nice round figure.... even if it's just paying of a few pennies to see it under the pound, very satisfying!!
Well, I'm a little happy because I realised that I've been paying away an extra £10 per month on one of my loans which will automatically pay off the total once it equals it (if that makes sense?)... so if you'll allow me I consider this to be debt being paid off - I can't use that money or get it back, it's purely there to pay off debt. So I've got a nice new figure...

Finished my tax return and because I bought a car for business I've made a mahoosive loss for my first year. But they're apparently going to give me a tidy sum as a rebate so I'll look forward to that for paying off my debts with
It's funny, before November I would just pay the minimum balances and cary on buying pointless carp and buying things for other people. Now I won't spend a penny unless I can justify it.
Just had two more payments through from fleabay including a payment from the bloke wanting my knickers, surprisingly there's no mention of the knickers, although the bras are addressed to a woman which has me most confused?!?!?! Anyway I've put it straight onto freemans so...

Just in time for a final January payment :j Was checking figures on banking website and saw I'd got a refund on something I paid for on my Mastercard and I've lumped in another tenner so another £27.36 off my total. So update is:
#309 £304.36 / £5554.36 (5.48%)
I'm up over 5% now. Having to hang onto a bit of money as cancelled MOT and service is now rescheduled for this Friday so I'm hoping to catch up a bit in Feb0
