    Have finally decided to reach into savings to pay off credit card - resisted this for ages but I've finally decided it is the most sensible thing. I managed to pay off one credit card and an overdraft without using savigns but if I truly want to be debt free before Christmas, which I really do, I needed to just use some of my savings pot on this last credit card.

    Happy to say that I am now debt free!! Amazing feeling :)

    Now to concentrate on rebuilding my savings pot and continuing to save for a deposit on a first home with my husband.

    Good luck to everyone and massive thanks to muppets for running this challenge!:T
  • Wow that's fab GalRob :j Enjoy that feeling!! You will start building up your savings in no time :)
