Hello everyone,
Yes, Millionaire this has really helped me keep focused as well. I have got the overdraft down to £200, and spending on credit cards this month has been negligable, so there will be more available to pay off the two with the ongoing balances.
Does anyone know how to put lines through the text in edit sig? I want to cross my o/d total out and add the new one.
Good luck to everyone out there.

Well I'm making slow but steady progress in this. I think at the moment I'm at the following totals:
Credit Card - £40 left to pay off
Dotty P's Card - £150(ish) left to pay off
£1800 Saved by Christmas (to move out) - £1170 so far
Will update my signature when it'll let me (doesn't seem to want to let me while I'm at work).
I've bought almost all of my christmas presents already aswell so thats one less thing to save for!!!
Hope you are all getting on well!!!

The snooker table didn't sell on ebay :sad: so we are going to email some pictures to the bloke we got it from to see if he can sell it instead.
However the good news is that my dh is going to drive back to see his mate in Bedford as he is buying our old computer for £500!! :T so this will clear the overdraft completely ......yipeeeeeeeee.
Then I just need to pay off the gas and elec bills, they have been reduced by normal payments but obviously a new bill will be expected so hope to clear.0 -
