Well done jaxsmar. Nearly there!
This week may be quite tricky for an extra payment, a fair few extra expenses but hey, I'll try and be extra frugal and we'll see how I get on.[STRIKE]Credit Card 17.9% = £460 paid off 2013[/STRIKE]!
£1000 overdraft 0% = 0/£1000
Owe parents for car = £410/£2950
Owe SAAS £240/£548
BF Lend £0/£200
And I'm still pretending my student loan doesn't exist until I earn enough that they ask for it!0 -

£26.00 for me this week as I sold an old dress and some shoes on Ebay. Hurrah!
Payday next week, so hoping to have some left-over balance to skim off.
Hope you're all having a lovely week.0 -

I've overpaid another £5 from my Barclaycard this week. In the few weeks I've been doing this challenge I've paid an extra £217.83 off. Very happy with this.
Enjoy the long weekend everyone!I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)0
