Woot, we have been tough on ourselves, and even with paying £1800 towards windows and doors (which makes our home a lot warmer!), we have found another £300.
This makes the 1st month of the year, a MAX paid OP
On a side note, this means we are ahead on target, as we needed to pay £250/mth to get to our £3k
So #127 is making an OP of £300.

Hiya- £3.55 quidco payment transferred to the mortgage.
It may be small, but I'm enjoying the different ways I can make OPS. Well it's more fun than the monthly standing order coming out automatically.
So #38 with the mammoth sum of £3.55Mortgage debt : -£17,000
2019 overpayments : £23,0000 -
