Hello, I'm a bit late to the party but can I join please? I won't have time to pay off all my debt by Christmas but I would like to just start on my credit card. The 0% runs out in December and rather than looking for a new deal I would rather just clear it. It's only a bite size of our overall debt, but it's better than nothing!
£0/ £2350Taking on the world one debt at a time!!!
Buy my car outright £0/£3300
Buy a caravan £0/£7500
Replace house windows £0/£50000 -
Morning All!
Just reporting another £50 payment to my one and only remaining debt!
#66 £2339/2889
Only £550 left which I am totally giddy about! I'm due a bonus in October which I can't wait to throw at this figure!
I hope everyone is still enjoying this challenge.
Thank you Muppets!
