    I've also had an expensive month with 2 car tyres, wheel alignment gizmo and a trip to Cardiff so less paid off Virg CC today :( Oh and I did treat myself to a steam mop thingy :o

    No 069 £3153 / £7719 = 40.8%

    I might make some extra payments later in the month depending how we get on, I soooo want to get to 50%.

    Blimey it's been ages since I last checked in so hope everyone is ok. Will try and catch up with thread later.

    It has been a tough month so far but today I received the cheque for my old mobile so rounded it up and paid off £50.

    Husband didn't go out last night and I'm missing girls' night out tomorrow :( so hopefully we might see a bit more in account next week.

    Well done everyone.:)
