Pay ALL your debt off by Xmas 2014!

Direct debit gone out today plus I have paid off my lowest balance card from my savings. (I know I should have done this ages ago but have to have an emergency fund. I decided my emergency fund total could be cut to pay off a card and still leave me ok for car breakdowns, heating packing up etc).
On track to pay my second one off in March which only leaves me with my 0 interest one.
Todays transactions makes my new total
#79 £991/£10082 so that's £9191 left to pay.

Is it cheating to join this challenge if I don't intend to pay off ALL of my debts this year? As much as I'd love to pay off everything, it's just unrealistic, as I currently owe around £19k :eek:

Hi Karb
It is certainly NOT cheating. There are a few here who are not planning to pay off all their debt this year. There are also a few (like me) who are doing the challenge for a second year.
Just name your target and good luck.
One of the thread moderators will assign you a number soon.Goals for FebruaryDeclutter 2/50Money Made £0/£200Overpayments £0/£2000 -
