    I know we are close to the end of the year but is it too late for me to join..?

    Just stumbled across this thread and as i'm one for shared support, encouragement and celebratory success I thought it fitted the bill perfectly!

    I have been documenting my journey in my diary since the beginning of August when I finally admitted to myself how much debt I was really in :o ... constantly looking for inspiration, I thought this would be the perfect challenge for me; i've kind of become obsessed with making over payments when I can..and it would be great to shout about it....yay :T

    £165.00 this week for me. Vet's bill wasn't too horrendous, so I'm not quite skint (although nearly) this month.

    Lucky you are so close :T

    Two of my lenders have recently increased my credit limits too Picklepot! I'm not going to use it, but it does mean my credit utilisation ratio has dropped, which is good. I think.
  • Thanks Dizzy! I'm so tempted to just pay it off but I don't want to leave us short, especially with it being half term next week.

    On that note, just a fiver for me this week Xx
