#21 checking in with a small overpayment which means I've reached 77% since the 1st January.
Only £560 left of my original debt of £2494. Progress has been slow due to starting a new job so funds have been tight.When life throws you a curveball, learn to catch it and throw it back! Feb Grocery Challenge/£1000 -
Number 20. I want to change my 1% to £14 if possible please. £46 is too hard for me at the minute and hoping a smaller amount will help. Hoping to get this to 25% at the end of the year! Thanks0

Hi all,
Thanks so much I’ve reached my 100% the Overdraft has been paid £500 :-) and I’ve applied for it to be removed from my bank account. The 1% really helped every time I went to spend money I just thought that could be a percentage of my debt off.
Thanks everyone even though I don’t post a lot I do read and everyone’s stories helped.
My next aim is the cc at £1684. My 1% = £16.84. Lets go :-)0 -
