Hello
Please may I join in here? I am coming towards the end of my DMP but am just about to get into debt with an expensive vet bill, which I've had to take out a credit card for. Little 1% targets would be brilliant for me.
The bill is an estimated £1000 (could be more or less than that). I've allocated £537 so far, so am going to break the remaining £463 into 1% chunks of £4.63 - which sounds far less daunting.Not giving up
