    Everybody is starting so well! :T

    I have:

    Paid £42.40 off my credit card (takes the balance down to £899.99) and reduced my overdraft by £100. Lloyds let me do it over the phone - I was preparing to have an argument over it because they refused to do it in the past. Super excited now!

    Only the OD counts towards this challenge (I just didn't want to only make the minimum payment on the card and wanted the balance under £900) so thats:

    £100/£500! :j

    I have been playing about with some figures and I am sure I can do this in 100 days my last debt is my mortgage and it will be going on that.

    OMG just read this back and it looks so scary :( But not changing my target (swallows and hits submit reply)

    Debt free and Mortgage free thank you to all for your encouragement and advice

    Thank you for the encouragement no will not clear the mortgage sadly another £15,000 to go after the £10,000 but a good chunk off it.

    Been living so MSE since my LBM and these challenges really help me and had my beady eye :rotfl:on this one for a while.

    So scary to see it in writing your encouragement will be greatly appreciated also determined not to drop the other challenges I am part of either :eek: So even more pressure :D

    Debt free and Mortgage free thank you to all for your encouragement and advice

    Well done on your payment I am here to give support to everyone too as I know how hard it is to find £2.50 some weeks so well done and every little makes a vast difference :T

    Can I ask if you have any plans for how you are going to do this please? I for one would love some extra tips and I'm sure others would as well.

    Hope you don't mind sharing x
