    This whole thread has been amazing. It gives you hope when you truly think there is none.
    For me, I seemed to do so well until reality struck and I realised I hadn't budgeted at all.for Xmas. With 5 children that's a disaster.
    Back to the drawing board, let's hammer the debts off in 2015.
    huge thank you to everyone who ran this thread..

    You've still done really well this year! But I don't envy you with 5 kids at Christmas, the food bill alone :eek:

    Wow it's crazy to think that between us we had that much debt, :eek: but we've also managed to clear half a million of it!! :T :beer:

    Thank you minicooper for looking after us and thanks everyone for keeping me motivated. I've certainly paid off much more than I would have done without you all!! :smileyhea

    To be fair, it's not all that much when you divide it by 218 people ;)

    Sorry have not kept up to date with this thread but I have slowly been plough away. Not cleared as much as I would have liked but anything is better than nothing.

    no. 199 with a total of 1843.57 cleared which leaves 1800.00 remaining.

    Thanks for this thread as it helps focus the mind and pay more off.

    You and me both. Though it may have looked better if I had included all my debt at the beginning of 2014 instead of just the loans/overdrafts/cc kind of debts. This year I will add in all the bills so I know exactly where I stand!.

    #124 declaring my total for 2014.


    Thankfully, after 5 months out of work, I started a new job ten days before Christmas, so that has eased a lot of my financial worries.


    My redundancy money has gone a long way towards clearing my debt. I have spent a little on my credit cards this month in order to buy Christmas presents, but I'll pay it off in full before I incur any interest.


    Overall I paid off £15085.56 in 2014.
    Debt free since December 2015. It can be done
