    Could I join please? I've seen this challenge listed many times before but have shied away from it every time lol! However I'm going to sort out which debts I want to focus on this year and will update shortly with a target.:money:
    .......It's £5000....say it quickly lol! This is not all my debt but it will clear up several niggling annoying little ones including my Halifax overdraft of £750 which is high priority

    Wishing us all success in 2017!:T

  • Muppets thank you so much for running this, it's wonderful 59 will be great. I can't find the old thread I wondered how much we all paid off in 2016? Only if it's no trouble

  • Hi there,
    May I join in please? As of today, I have £2889 left to pay off from a total debt of £5,629 at it's worst (this time last year). This is made up of 5 small debts now that I've managed to smash through a couple of the bigger ones. (I know I've done it 'the wrong way round' but the smaller ones are 0% interest and the larger ones were council tax and H.B. over payments. I'm so glad they are gone!)

    I'm really looking forward to this year!

    Thank you.
