    Ellie - what a fabulous post to wake up to today. You've made my day :beer: I am sooooooooooooooooooooo pleased for you.

    I think you said you will be debt free in 25 days time......or did I misunderstand ;)

    Thank you January, I have to keep pinching myself that I'm so close now:)

    Evening all!

    Tax man paid £3k of tax owed into the husbands account this morning bringing our total debt down to £7882. That's first time we have been sub £10k like.....ever.

    Mines a large glass of red for now but we have earmarked a magnum of champagne in the loft (a gift) for celebrating when we are officially debt free hopefully this summer now thanks to this windfall!

    I can almost taste the financial freedom!!!

  • Little late too the party but i have had two milestones recently.

    1. My DMP debt is now below £1000 (was over £21K eeep!!)
    2. October 2017 is my debt free year! In 2009 when i started my journey it was 2023 and i couldn't even contemplate ever being nearly debt free.

    Feeling really positive at the moment !
    March 2017 - Debt Free- cleared £21,750

    On a mission to repair my credit rating & own my own home
