Hi, I haven't been on in AGESSSSS!

Update:
I have now cleared my CC YIPPEEEEE!
So now, my target is 7000 family loan.
Going to start paying a monthly amount to chip away at this as well as saving for bigger chunks.
Also going to put away as much as I can alongside this. Here goes..

Ooh I have a number now too - #278 - strange how much that makes me want to do well lol

I've come off the boil a bit on my main debts as ran up my overdraft repairing the car, then took some time off thinking about money to celebrate my birthday :beer: soooo, debt number 5 is £1200 and 1% is £12. Need to tackle that quickly as it's my overdraft and will mean interest

Hi guys and gals,


#335 reporting in...I am at 2.6%, been doing some challenges and chipping away at the debt monkey.... :j
Looks like I will have a heap of overtime coming in later this month and into next month, so should be able to make some bigger inroads to this

Hurrah! Had forgotten how good it feels to complain when something's not right! Been given £200 back and 50% discount for the rest of my contract. Not counting it till I have it, but that's a good few % against debt #5 :T :T :T

£11 overpaid on the long term loan after an eBay profit account tidy up and survey payment. Every penny makes a difference no matter how small the amount.

Another £50 to declare from me after absolutely no craft spending for a whole month (I really don't need anything else as my stash already resembles my own craft shop! but normally I am tempted to a few little bits here and there and digi products are usually my weakness but from the 18th Aug - 18th Sept I am proud to declare that I have not spent 1p on any craft materials so have transferred £50 into the savings account as this would normally have been spent on my crafty goodies


So MEMBER 17 is now at 33%

I can declare a further £49 towards my target (4%) made up from:-


£40 face painting party payment
£8 free dinner voucher for my birthday from local restaurant
£1 saved from not buying a school cake raffle ticket (as I never win and had lots of birthday cake which needed eating so no more cake was required!)


So member 17 is now at 37%
