  • Good evening everyone. I've not had time to post over past few days but I've kept up with a PAD.
    On Sunday I transferred £6.80 into a savings account that I've set up specifically to save money for F&F offer to one of my creditors. This money came from my current account which I keep intending rounding down to the nearest £10. Similarly yesterday I rounded down again and transferred a further £3.93 Both small amounts but I'm hoping that it will keep me motivated.
    Today I've made an extra payment of £17.36 to clear the balance on a small loan that I had. Was only due at the end of the month but was accruing interest so feels good to save a few pennies there :)

    Total personal PAD's for March now stands at £194.09 :) Really pleased with that
    Total Debt April 2017 = £98086.93 :eek: May 2017 paid back £678.63/£97943.93 or 0.69%
    Short term financial goal :-
    Clear £7107.78 of high interest debt (includes clearing overdrafts)
    April 2017 £0/£7107.78 paid. May 2017 £678.63/£7107.78 paid (9.54%)
    Weight loss goal:- Lose 30lbs by Christmas 2017 April 2017 1/30 lbs lost
