    Part of the Furniture 500 Posts Xmas Saver!
    I was wondering if it would be ok to join - sorry if I'm too late. I had a balance at the beginning of my journey of £4,665 and I'm currently at £4,280. I am aiming to be debt free as soon as possible, but Christmas is an 'at the latest' target.

    Current Progress -
    Debt - Start date 14/4/25 = £14,880.45
    Savings Goal = £1000 EF - £0/£1000 = 0%
