The 'Extra Payment Every Week' Thread 2015

Kelxx

Sent £20.00 extra to Tesco CC &
an extra £8.05 to BarclayCard by rounding up :j

Late update for last week £19.58 paid off CC, proceeds from last month's Amazon book sales

Paid an extra £12.70 off the B/C yesterday - signature updated. I struggled a bit this week - lots of bills and shopping to pay for, which hasn't left much in my pot for the rest of the month

Just wanted to drop in and thank PLMBL for starting this thread and for all the support from other posters.


I admit I have become a little spread sheet obsessive but its such a relief knowing exactly where I am with things. Knowing when the 0% finishes and spotting the minimum payments going down so I can top them up. Also being able to snowball a paid off credit card into the next one. I don't think I would have done any of this before coming onto the MSE forums.

I second this - both with thanks to Lucky and the spreadsheet obsession

An early check-in to report £36.07 paid off for this week - had an incredibly lucky pass on my cars mot, with little work, so have been able to do a bigger round down on the savings pot for this week's payment.

Have to join in the thanks to Lucky for this thread - for me it's the perfect balance of nibbling away at the debt, but not as hard as the payment-a-day , I just know if I hadn't been doing this that the extra money would have ended up disappearing without seeing an impact on the debts - thank you!
