    Even tho I've just hit my target I'm not debt free yet xx

    Yeah, I maybe need to consider how to word it differently for next year to make it friendly for debt free and targeters! Everyone needs to get the same.

    I was a targeter last year, this year it was the full amount but I'm only just over half way. Ah well. Done pretty good :j next year I will really be debt free by Xmas!! Will have only taken nearly 3 years :eek:

    I haven't done as well as I should have, as I took my eye off the ball during the summer months. Maybe I could be debt free by Xmas next year, but I think more likely it will 1 or 2 after that. Hoping to have the debt total under £10,000 by the end of the year. That's my mini target.

    Everyone is doing so well, congrats to everyone who has acheived their targets this year! :j

    Oh dear me. I have spent £82 on shopping since Tuesday!!!! To be far though £22 was wine for Christmas presents so I guess it's only £60 really - £10 over budget...

  • We were meant to have a special day today, and I was a bit sad I couldn't afford much, but in the end my OH put his back out! I did have to go stock up on pricey painkillers, but other than that, I should happily survive to payday!

    I also opened my sealed money tin to find £133 of spending money for our holiday :)

    Been a bit lax about posting lately, but hey. I made another payment towards the car today. Now I'm at at £8104.05/£10,000.

    Hi everyone
    I'm updating now as I'll forget in the week and I will miss the deadline for October. It's payday tomorrow so my payments will go out automatically tonight.
    Super super chuffed, I won £450 so I have paid that straight off a debt - it hasn't cleared the balance but it has knocked at least 9 months off my repayments :-). I am going to reduce my credit limit too so I can't incur any more debt and avoid any temptation. I can't believe that I am actually on target as a few weeks ago it felt like wishful thinking!!
    My figures (as of 12pm tonight) will stand at:


    Paid £7,002.74/£7,365 = 95.08% = £362.26

    A vision without a plan is just a dream.
