            Wow, quarter of a million pounds!! :eek: That's pretty impressive, although slightly depressing that between 170 of us we've had to use all that lovely money on paying off debts instead of being able to enjoy it!! 
 Still I guess between us all we are quarter of a million pounds less in debt than we were three months ago and that does feel pretty good!! :j                        Saving for Disney again, oops why book one Disney holiday when you can book two!:starmod: Emergency Fund Savings - #148 - £10/£1000 1% :starmod::xmastree:#083 SPC6 £63 - SPC7 £90 - SPC8 £63 - SPC9 £54 - SPC10 £26 - SPC12 £70 :xmastree:0 :j                        Saving for Disney again, oops why book one Disney holiday when you can book two!:starmod: Emergency Fund Savings - #148 - £10/£1000 1% :starmod::xmastree:#083 SPC6 £63 - SPC7 £90 - SPC8 £63 - SPC9 £54 - SPC10 £26 - SPC12 £70 :xmastree:0

            First of the month so first over payment made. £82 paid to the loan.
 Well done everyone for paying off a quarter of a million off our debts. I bet the banks hate this thread :rotfl: I wonder how much collective interest we have saved ourselves?? :think:

            Hey all.
 Well done everyone on the debt busting so far- it really is amazing to see how much we are all chipping away at our debt and the 1/4 of a million is :eek::eek:
 Pay day was yesterday but i didnt get paid nearly as much as expected. My overtime was not submitted in time by my manager so it will be paid next month. I also started a new job middle of the month (same employer- different pay scale and departments) it appears that they cant use a calculator or they use one that is completely different to the ones most normal people would use. I have not been paid for a day :mad: and my tax calculation for the year looks really high (did a "how much tax" online calculator and it shows i have paid too much- will wait now to hear from HMRC)
 Number 59 Checking in- Ive paid off £1030, i am nearly at 35% paid off Finally dealing with debt: 01.01.2015 -£10,562.:( Finally dealing with debt: 01.01.2015 -£10,562.:(
