    I had a relatively quiet bank holiday weekend but I did buy a few things oops! On the count down til next payday, although my car mot and service is booked the same day. Bit depressing but at least I'll know what I have left or not for the rest of the month rather than trying to guess!

    #163. Good news!!! Finally got my dividend from work not as much as I was hoping for but I've paid my car loan & very account so very happy!!! Now I can start paying the MBNA credit card.

    So my new total is £3550.86 paid off out of £8940.04!!! My total figure was slightly out due to the car loan settlement so I've updated my signature!
    Thanks
    Debt free and never going back!

    Hi guys how many of you do free postcode lottery or ego lotto. Geo lotto have a free treasure hunt game where you can win cash, it's only. Between 1p and 20p on some squares but if you build it up enough it can help make an extra payment off your debts and the daily prize on free postcode lottery is now £100 a day

    Every day for 2 years now, still not won anything but that surely means I'm due.

    Sern that geo lotto free game but not signrd up for it.

    I'm having one of those oh this is not so easy when real life comes knocking.

    Was doing really well and have a big plan in hand of moving house to downsize all my expenses. Excellent long term plan, short term of course there are all sorts of additional expenses. Plus children's needs, a forgotten balance of £500 due on a summer holiday contracted for last year, council tax kicking back in again, and the loooooong month of May and its all looking very uphill indeed. Amazing how my mood can go from sunny and chipper over two no spend days in a row to gloomy as I see the prospect of getting debt free by the end of the year look gloomier. Onwards is the only way I know. Hmmm.
    Total debt at 18.9.17 £1950

    Debts down £12,700 high in Feb 2015, £10,700 April 15, £8830 May 15, £6776 June 15 , £5857 July 15 £6970 1.3.16

    Well done on all of your debt busting update's, it makes great reading! For those that have just joined or are finding things slow, keep strong lovelies :kiss:

    An update from me, my usual DD of £250 went out this month.

    I was very fortunate to be awarded some work shares and I was able to sell them in April; so I did and paid it all off of my debt!

    So this month I have paid off a whacking great £1619.09 in total!! :j feel so happy about it..

    Needed to get rid of that poxy 9p to!

    #120 £3144.09/£5144.09

    £2000 left to go... :rotfl::beer:
