Debt Free in 2015 - Who's with me?!?!?!?

Comments

Hi
can I join please. We are aiming to be debt free not including the mortgage by the start of 2015.
We are going to put all spare money into paying off the credit cards in order listed on my signature. I am currently on unpaid part of my maternity leave until feb 13 so we won't be able to start properly paying off extra money until March when I am back at work.
Our target is to clear CC1 by May, CC2 by Aug, CC3 by Nov, then have a break for xmas, CC4 by Mar, CC5 by Apr, CC6 by July 2014??
We have bought a breadmaker and have started making our own bread which is much cheaper and tastier. Food is one of our biggest expenses so this is an area which we want to cut back on
Can anyone tell me how I get a line through my amounts in my signature once they have started reducing thanksslimming world:
start date 03/01/13 starting weight: 14st 5 1/2 height: 5ft 3 1/2
current weight 13st 3lb-16 1/2 lb :T

Welcome to the challenge!!
Do you have a plan in place to get this all paid off?
I have worked out all my repayments & also anything extra that I can save - I love being organised & writing everything down!
