    And in today's post I received a very nice letter from the car finance company confirming that the car is now mine, all mine! :beer: Always nice to see the paperwork even though it was actually paid a few weeks ago!

    Well done all PADders. We will get there! x

    Just thought the following link hadn't been posted for a while and it really helps you to decide what debt to pay off first :)....put in your figures and save to desktop (it's the debt snowball folks)

    http://www.whatsthecost.com/snowball.aspx

    Also people who are new to this debt busting journey it may be a helpful idea to menu plan and try out budget cook books from the library. There was a really good 'how to feed your family (of 4 people) on £20 a week or something daft' link on the frugal living thread but I can't remember it? (can anyone?)

    This may also help people

    There are lots of ways you can menu plan and write a shopping list - from tablet to a notebook and pen. It doesn't have to be high tech.

    Also - as I discovered last week - white goods are often cheaper on the likes of ebay if they are 'Grade A refurbished'. I got a family sized digital microwave last week for less than £40 off ebay - delivered to my local argos :) (including courier). Worth having a look and also checking the reviews :D

    Hope that helps someone :)
