Woohoo!!:j :j . I'm done.Paid off my credit union so I have paid off all 3 debts I started off with. Still going to keep going though as I have put a few hundred onto my Barclaycard for Christmas stuff but want it paid off before Christmas so I will keep going with it as it inspires me. It will all depend on whether I get my bonus from work before Christmas or not. Fingers crossed I do as I grudge the interest I will be paying. Good luck all xx5 Year plan.

Well done on paying them off M I T!! That's fab! :j
Hopefully nursery are going to pay some back on Monday but I'll believe it when I see it. My car is being driven on fumes at the moment but I'm resisting using my credit card! Hopefully I'll be able to pay some more off on this challenge next week. Feel I'm being left behind now!0 -
no dont feel like that I have just had loads of luck. If I had had to do this all myself then I doubt I would have managed it. Just keep going cos even if you dont manage it all this challenge will ensure you have paid off more than you would have. Chin up x5 Year plan.
