    Argh so annoyed, I forgot about the balance transfer fee (went to 0% this month) and so my balance has bounced back up again to £7162.63 - despite me making another few payments this week totalling ~£48.

    So I was £7131.80/£7,500.00 and now i'm £7162.63/£7,500.00 :(

    Let’s just pretend I have not been alternately drowning in debt or only eating toast to try and pay it off for the last 20 years 😭

    Just popping by to say I won't be completing the debt free challenge this year :(
    Hubbys car had an accident last week (he's fine, the car isn't) so we've had to bring our plans of buying a new car forward and so we won't be paying any debt off now until next year :( (we've done a big finance reshuffle)
    So i bid farewell to this challenge and wish everyone still paying lots of luck :)
    I shall return to attempt debt free in 2017 :)
    Dipdap sorry to hear about the car accident. xx

    Penniesinmyjar, it's so annoying about the fee, but just think, every payment from now will all go to the debt and not to interest. xx
