I’m gonna take part in the payment a day challenge this month! (Decided about ten mins ago but I made some payments yesterday also!!!)
Yesterday I made payments of £305 to one of my Credit Cards
Today I made a payment of £5 to same card!
I might only make smaller payments the closer we get to each payday…but every little helps!!5 -
£3 to debt x2

Glad to see you taking part @abaka,
As counter upper this month I’ll combine both your payments and count them as made today if that’s ok, as yesterday’s total was already declared?£305 is a stonking amount, way more than any single payment I ever make.
A lot of my PADs are often just a pound but just as you say…. every little helps!27/5/17 Mort 64705 BTs 1904031/12/17 Mort 59815 BT 1673007/04/20 Mort 49208 BT 1572128/07/20 Mort 47387 BT 1263414/11/20 Mort 45905 BT 10134 20/05/21 Mort 42335 BT 686811/08/22 Mort 32050 BT 2915Sealed Pot Challenge 16 Number 55 -
No worries. That was only so big because it included a payment from my wife for a balance transfer I took on from one of her credit cards when she was on maternity and money I got for getting a refund on something!!! I wouldn’t expect those totals every day!!!! Looking forward to be taking part thoughAntoMac said:Glad to see you taking part @abaka,

Great to see you here @abaka! Welcome, welcome 🤗. I don’t PAD everyday so don’t feel pressured to do so. And some days it’s just my spare change put into the money tin and it’s less than a pound and other days it’s my direct debit payments etc and there could be days or a week and a bit in between payments. But I read the thread everyday as it helps to motivate me and I cheer people on even when I have nothing to PAD.Received some money from my brother for what he owes, so paid £5 straight to MBNA.Debt Free Diary:- The Mental Debt Struggle
