Morning, some of DH's invoices were paid over night and after moving money around there was £15 spare that I've used for any extra payment on the card.

Another poor week for me, another tyre has to be replaced, so that's 3 this month! Hopefully no more car troubles for a while now.
Very much looking forward to having saving pots that this will all come out of next year but for the moment just a £30 payment this week

Great payments everybody! One or two (like me) who have seen their debt total rise slightly - don't worry about it, there will be ups and downs this year, we just have to make sure there are more ups than downs :rotfl:
Last year, March was a bumper month for some reason, so it's an ambitious target seeing as we had a bumper February. We're doing well though, the total is looking veeeeeeeeery healthy. Pay day edging closer and closer too... I can't wait to break this pay day cycle.supermum1988 wrote: »Is it too late to start this challenge?? I can not clear my whole debt but would love to set myself a target of £3000.
Of course not! You're number 160, and I've given you a £3k target. Welcome aboard.0 -

Sure? I can change it if you like...0 -
No, no £3k is good thank you. Confused myself. I made my first payment of £8 the other day. Don't know if that counts but I did it so I'm at £8/3000. Yay. Cant actually wait until payday. That's a first.LBM: 10/03/2015 Total debt:£11,742. :mad:
