  • One last quick one from me... payday on Friday, and I can't see myself spending any more money this month outside of groceries etc. Transferred £300 to First Direct, leaving about £150 until Friday. Hopefully most of that will be send in the same direction when my pay lands :). New total...

    £4,285.57/£15,000 (28.6%)

    That is progress pablosammy well done. It feels so good doesn't it to know that you can enjoy your time away without having to worry about the bill in 28days time!

    Wow 70% into last year's figures already. We've still got just under half the month to go too. Well done everybody :T

    Hi :) Looks like we are doing well.

    Just paid a little extra £3 off the balance. I know it's not much but little bits do help to chip the total down. ;) There's so much to save for at the moment and the car service to pay tomorrow. Need to get selling a few more things so that I can pay off a bit more.

    New totals:

  • I've just paid off CC1 in full! Feel very happy but also extremely nervous about the whole thing. Total paid was £1095.24. I was waiting to see if the dog needed an op on a couple of cysts but as my bank balance looked quite healthy, I keep spending! Now it's gone I can't!

    This brings my total too

    #115 £1907.56/4429

    I'd love to break the 2k barrier this month. Chances are pretty slim unless I finally get round to listing things for sale

    Wow we are doing well :j :j :j :j


    Mossy I completely agree and keep making little payments whenever I get money in or save money.


    However, today I got some money back unexpectedly so I've paid off another £200 :)
