    Morning

    Its payday so I have made my regular payments/overpayments :j

    Total now #11 - £6631.48 / £10,224 = 64.86%

    I have been paid for another ebay item, but haven't got time this morning to make another payment, so I will be back later.

  • Hello!

    Payday here for me too. Unfortunately spent £150 on my credit card this month, so with interest added I am back up to £3000. (Boo!) On the other hand, after my payment this month, I only have £60 left on my overdraft which I am going to try so hard to scrape together this month, then that's 2 out of 4 debts gone! Plus I will save £32 a month as I am going to just downgrade to a basic bank account and will have no overdraft fees or interest to pay!

    So payments for me:
    £440 to overdraft
    £200 to loan
    £100 to credit card

    New total: #42 3887/7477
    Aiming to be debt free by Dec 2013 :eek:

    Hmm I appear to have an extra £300 in my pay packet, now I think this has something to do with my new tax code but I'm not 100%. Oh well, I've reduced the overdraft by another £50 and there's just £300 left to go on that now. I have to try my bestest not to spend allll my wages this month as we have a holiday to pay for (trip to France).
    I need to pay some money towards the dreaded card (like what I did there?) but I might put £500 aside and then see if I can match that in fleabay sales this month (that'll be a hard slog!) Banning myself from using the dreaded card this month, this debt needs to vamousse!

    ;) yes it would however I think the £3000 dreaded card needs paying off first. It would appear I can't be trusted with increases in credit limits and seem to think it's "free" money...it's not. So dreaded card is going to be given to the OH.
    That being said, have paid my usual £200 + the extra £300 towards the dreaded card to pay off interest and reduce it some.

    That being said I now owe a total of £2926.43 I don't really know how to work that out as my total is £2900 and I've already paid off £522.63 this year.

    Spagbol, I think I need a new total :(
    £522.63/£3449.06 15%
    (I appear to be back to where I was last year. Although this time I've spent about £1000 on stock for my business and I have almost £100 in the business bank account so that can start to buy it's own stock soon.)

    Lovely to have a bonus! I have updated your total, don't be disheartened about the increase, you are a businesswoman now and will be rich before you know it :D
