    I've kept up with the 20p and copper jars which are filling up nicely. Time to have think about the CCs as these are the big debts left now to tackle.

    Really will make some progress this year instead of thinking it - will do it!

    (Didn't realise it had been so long since I had last posted)

    Did it! :j

    Forgot to mention I'm still filling the pots up with 20p coppers, 50p and £2 coins in the hope it amounts to a decent amount at some stage. The 20p and copper jars are almost full :D

    Tiny tiny steps at last making some decent progress at long long last.

    Virgin Media monthly cost reduced to £10 per month from £34
    O2 monthly cost reduced to £10 from £15
    Council Tax and Water up £1 per month

    Planning to pay off £100 per month of CC spread over the cards when I work out which has the higher % APR

    Hope everyone else is doing ok
    final unsecured debt to repay currently £8333

  • Hello....:o
    Long time lurker, wondering if I can join you?
    41yr old single lady, 15yr old DS and 2 spaniels!!
    Have managed to get my cards on either 0% or low(ish) LOB transfers, which is a start..Although I do have a habit of falling of the waggon now and again. Not in a huge way, but perhaps spoiling DS a bit too much sometimes.
    I do ebay & amazon stuff, but instead of paying off a debt with it I leave it on the account 'just in case I need something' :rotfl:
    Hope you're all having a good Easter .....
