    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! :p

    £50.00 extra payment for me this week. This is my ISA interest plus a little extra from grocery budget to round it up to a nice neat £50.

    £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.

    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!
