    Welcome newbies!

    amr glad you got paid in full!

    Newlywed Congratulations on all the wedding clearing - I'm glad it's been going so well! And it's fantastic you've paid off so many of your debts! I would have paid off the little ones too... I'm sure it reflects better on your credit to have one bigger debt, than to have 5 smaller debts! I didn't think there was a way to privately post to the selling pages... My other idea was to set up a selling profile, and just add myself as my only friend :rotfl: That might look at tad suspicious though. Still, if I get no sales, I'll just cancel the spare account.

    I didn't manage to pay off the credit card, I'm so disappointed!

    I still have another £300 to go, oh well I am going to try and make that £300 by next payday so going to eBay anything I have left and maybe a boot fair if I have the time.
    I also have a shoe box that has some loose change in it, so will count that out tonight and pay it to the card

    Happy Friday!

    Debt-free and Proud!
    I think I am going to burst!!!!!! Checked my bank account this morning to find work has paid me £800. Surely a mistake as payday was last week..but Hubby had a similar payment so when we got to work he checked with the Accounts Guy and IT'S A SURPRISE BONUS!!!!! He didn't thnk anyone would notice until he brought the letters round later.

    It's enough to pay off the £716 left on my CC!!!!!!!!!!! I can become debt free today (apart from the trailing interest that'll be on my next CC statement) I could cry I'm so excited!!!!!!!!!!!

    Me again!

    Just been onto my account and paid off the remaining £713 on my CC.

    I am now officially Debt Free:j (though apparently there will be a bit of trailing interest to pay next months but that'll just be a few pounds)

    So #012 £3092/£3092 100%
