    Hello I'd love to join please?

    I've been doing the payment a day and make £10 a day threads and since I'm well on my way this thread could provide extra focus!

    I'm currently on £3463.20/£11072.71, so 31.28% paid xx

    Oh gosh, this feels so positive... I PAID OFF MY CREDIT CARD TODAY!! Hooray!!! This means I can use the payments I was making towards it for my loan and mortgage: they're similar interest rates and can both only take so much overpayment, so I'm going to split my new-found extra between the two of them.

    SO pleased :):)
