    Congratulations amr :)

    Payday also for me today and already sorted out my balances.

    I got engaged to my beautiful fiancee :j:j on holiday last week, I bought the ring the day before we flew to Corfu so had to put it on the Tesco credit card. So I've added that to the new balances and paid it all off already.

    New balances: £2669.77/£4339.77 61.52%

    Total debt went up but paid off more so my debt paid off percentage rose to 61.52% - really need to get it to 75% by end of next month. Still waiting for the £178 from Quidco at some point in the future. Could do with that paid out before Xmas.
  • Congratulations everyone! looks like everyone is doing great!

    No 177
    £801.69/£2728.43 29.38%


    So nearly hit 30% of this year's target, but only 5% of my overall debt :(

    I am hoping that by the end of August I will have doubled my percentage paid off and be at 60% as I have a big chunk of overtime being paid this month with any luck!

    Looking forward to seeing everyone's payday payments!!

    Won't be for a few years yet. Ideally wanted to clear debts and get a deposit on a house first before getting the wedding organised.
