    Chipping another £1 off the VERY account.


    I LOVE this thread and feel like these baby steps (petite pads) are actually getting me somewhere. :D


    Lovely to see everyone PADding away. xx


    I'm so with you. I tried debt busting by paying off huge chunks off whatever I felt like (pre DMP where I got an account for debt and an account for every day stuff) and boy the beating myself up never stopped.....

    But with persistence, Dave Ramsey; DMP and MSE I got debt free 2 years ago :). It had it's ups and downs but I got there

    For those folk on the final leg...this may well be the hardest part of your Debt free journey but I just wanted you to know we are here for you. I think my original plan was to get Debt free in the april but the last leg was so hard it took me another 6 months!!!!

    However I got there :D

    Am I still counter upper for March?

    Thank you EE - lovely to see you and others are still bashing down the debt - and some of you like Esme are debt-free. That's magic :wave:

    I haven't posted on MSE for such a long time but hopefully I can come back here once a month or when ever I make a payment. Always having a nosey around to see how you're all doing xxxx
