    Hello, pay day today so I have £200 to put towards my CC:

    #118 £2631.65 / £4861 (54.14%)

    Getting there, slowly but surely! The second half of the year has been my downfall the last 2 years I've been trying to get debt free so I'm really going to try and stick to it this year so I can finally get rid of it all!
    Total debt at LBM = £4861.03

    DFBXmas2018 #91 - £3342 / £3500 (95.4%)

    HTB ISA - £0 withdrawn for house purchase! :D
