  • Good afternoon people i am forever in my debt free notbook designing plans drawing on dreams etc etc etc :D although i like to jot targets down things can always change etc etc so since i have had a little payrise i intend to use teh extra 70 pound a month to go in to a little savings account then every debt cleared will also go into the savings pot.. do not look alarmed this will not affect our dfd of dec 2011.... the Targets are as follows
    1. Egg credit card paid by Jan 2010 from our 1000 excess leaving 104.35 remaining from excess
    2. pay barcaly card by february 2010 =96.08 excess
    3. pay virgin credit card by april 2010 leaving 741.01 excess
    4. pay halifax credit card may 2010 leaving 110.80
    5. pay mint credit card july 2010 = 326.70
    6. Halifax cc dec 2010 =307.84
    7. pay virgin credit card may 2011 = 745.91 remaining
    8. tesco loan to terminate april 2010
    9. egg loan to terminate december 2010
    10. June 2011 should clear the following 3 loans with savings 2 x halifax loans and one alliance loan.
    11. july 2012 we should have enough in savings to clear the remaining amount of home owner loan who knows i may look at getting a cheaper loan to clear it with bigger payments or just carry on with original plan.....
    then the next bet is to hoepfully accumulate savings or sell house live with parents and accumulate savings faster :D then we can get our dream land/house sorted :D... gosh i do hope i can get this to work and stick to it fingers toes and legs and arms crossed twice over :Dx

    Feel a bit like my name today, fed up indeed of no money to spend on anything at all. The long and winding road indeed feels an uphill struggle this week.

    Too true, can't wait until 2014 when big massive loan is paid off and then just the mortgage (hopefully!)

    Right Ive a night to myself and I'm going to stop feeling sorry for myself.

    Ive got 6 things to ebay and heres my incentive.

    If I make £30 I can go visit the other half by bus.
    If I make £60 I can fly sleazyjet
    If I make £80 I can fly easyjet and get us a couple of bottles of wine :D

    Think positive thoughts. Think positive thoughts.
  • good luck with the eBay front i'm shattered x
