    Morning everyone:)

    A PAD of £7.51 £7.14 to cc and 37p to savings please Milky, thank you.

    Dizzy that's what is great about this challenge, you could have just spent that £1 thinking it won't make a difference but you didn't, you put it to work and every PAD makes a difference. It is more than a PAD it shows that you are in control, focused and determine to succeed in repaying debt, you should be proud of every penny that you are in control of :beer:

    Have a great Sunday everyone :)

    Absolutely MessyBetty, summed up the power of PAD nicely there. And Dizzy, I don't even manage a PAD every day if there's no funds coming in especially on the run up to payday.


    However, today there's £36 paid to the balance cc please milky
