  • Hi teaandcupcakesplease!

    Now that would be amazing, debt free and a guilt free holiday paid for without credit. Now that would be the most amazing birthday present ever!

    I can do this :D

    Evening guys and girls,

    So I'm back from Canada, which was amazing as usual, and I'm now prepared for getting back on my debt busting journey :j

    My partner's cheque came through whilst we were away, so we've deposited that and just waiting for it to clear. Once that's cleared, we will be paying off the Halifax credit card in full. We will then be able to throw the full £273.95, that we were splitting between both credit cards, at the MBNA meaning it will be cleared by March 2020 - so we will be debt free by my 30th birthday!!! :T

    Off to update my signature :)

    Hopefully we can keep up with these payments, if so, we only have 9 payments left until we're debt free.

    Oh how I wish I could magic money from somewhere!!

    slow but steady is doing you so well. don't blow it by trying some clever trick. especially not with XMAS to get through right as you are getting close!!
    I think I saw you in an ice cream parlour
    Drinking milk shakes, cold and long
    Smiling and waving and looking so fine
