Hello everyone, the weather is dismal so we need to remind ourselves of the progress we are making every day.....:T
So let us know what small steps you are taking today to enable you to become debt free.
I have:
- sent everyone off with packed lunches and yesterday I stuck to my shopping budget at the supermarket
I will:
- check online banking and make an overpayment to a credit card if at all possible
- write to my old phone company demanding the £39 that they owe me
- try for a NSD
Have a good day everyone x

* Managed to provide enough money to pay minimum payment for third creditor THIS month, and applied to get money back from old PO savings account which will allow me to settle debt in full NEXT month.
* Recieved info from CCA that they have put my case on hold and are not going to try for a CCJ until they have spoken to my creditor. YAY:)
Not a NSD... I spent money on recorded delivery, printing, & a postal order. Plus a small treat from the charity shop - 50p:)
