    Another pay day last Thursday, cant believe its april next week. I have been busy reducing my debt wherever possible. Money back from switching energy supplier, Halifax monthly reward, cashback on my credit card and generally trying to live off the food in my cupboard and freezers.
    Including paying my bills on my computer for the month an additional debt reduction of £1302.26.

    Debt Free By Xmas 2014 challenge #134 1098/4000
  • Hi,

    #31 checking in

    Glad to see everyone is moving in the right direction and some nice payments coming through.

    Its payday for us and I've made all of April's transfers a day early. Am never usually THIS organised but maternity leave is offering up some free time at random times in the day & night when baby is sleeping.

    Have transferred £750 payment to our 0% fluid credit credit card.
    That means we have paid a total of £2,825/3072 in this challenge.
    a very juicy 91% :j

    Next month is looking all rather likely to see our debt free day.:D

    All of the credit cards will be paid off in full.... fingers crossed no dramatic financial emergencies arise in the meantime.

    MIB x

    Total now #12 - £2827.83 / £10,000 = 28.29%

    I would prefer to be further along than I am, but I am still on target for the end of the year.
