The 'extra payment every week' challenge 2013

Massive slide the last week or so.
Lots of expenditure followed by a period of reduced income then my phone refusing to charge and requiring a replacement has meant I've not made any headway and have in fact USED my credit card.
Feeling rather disheartened but I was heading in the right direction so just need to get back into that frame of mind
[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!

I got paid an extra £29 this month for working an extra day. Most of the overtime I do is unpaid as I'm salaried so its a nice surprise. In the past I'd have treated myself but this challenge is really good for keeping me on track so onto the cc it went.MFW 2024 £27500/7500 Mortgage £129,500 Jan 22 Final payment June 38 Now £68489.08 FP May 36 Emergency Fund £20,000 100% Added to ISA 24 £8,060 Save 12k in 24 #31 £20,034.76/20,000 Debt Free 31.07.140

Mainly thanks to working lots this week so not really had to pay too much for food as can grab bits and pieces from work.
Hope everyone has had a good week [STRIKE]Credit Card 17.9% = £460 paid off 2013[/STRIKE]!
