Hi folks great work all round everybody! I am up to 40% now
Probably won't be around much for a while as I'm away through most of July.
Dropped my Ipad at the weekend and cracked the screen - it's in for repair now at a cost of £80Very disappointed with myself :mad: Especially disappointed 'cos the Ipad was a gift that we didn't really want but I use it a lot and have my promised my old tablet to DS1 so had to have it fixed....

Hi All,
Sorry for the late of involvement - just been rubbish really!
My total is now this:
Member #198 £8,580.59/£8731.92 (98.27%)
So desperately want to clear this, but haven't got the money at the minute! Plus SLC said to clear my balance on pay day so I won't have the money come out of my salary the following month.
Hope everyone else is doing fantasticDEBT FREE SINCE 25.07.14!

Hi - can I join in? I like the idea of breaking the debt down and am getting my crayons out as we speak!
My first debt is £1950 so 1% = £19.50. I already have £9 through some small sales so will update when I reach my first 1%.
Thanks x44 day challenge
