  • Hiya
    Sorry I am going to be a nuisance. If possible could I please alter the amount stated on the previous years thread. No. 82 at £13000 please. I have calculated wrong (by about £3000 inc 2 hols I hadn’t budgeted for). It is in the late 12000’s so will top up any savings with the rest for the sake of a nice round number xx
    Jan 2025 £26561.43/£0. I want to clear £9000 this year (2025)

    Hi Muppets. Unfortunatley again I didn't manage to get debt free :( I got VERY close though to under the £1000 mark, however a few unexpected things came up the last 5 months that meant I had to reach for my credit card again :(

    In total my debt is up to £3,500. I've rounded that figure up to the nearest £100 to make it even lol. This year WILL be the year I am finally debt free and I will have managed to put savings away also.

  • Hi Muppets - first payment off my debt made today - a net payment of £60 off my £6500 target - my total debt had gone up a few hundred over the £18K total after Xmas expenses(!!).... a little bit demoralising, but to be honest after Xmas I'm not surprised, I was never going to be able to clear a huge amount over and above that excess, which I'm not including as part of my target as this was all incurred in December


    Looking forward to a much quieter January spending-wise, will be tightening my belt (if it fits after Xmas food!) and expect to make bigger inroads once I get paid again on 30th January....
  • Direct debit of £200 taken plus an extra £50 that I had left in my account before pay day. Current totals as follows

  • Can I say a big thank you Muppets for this. Is it easier for you if we post in drips and drabs or add our monthly total and post once just thinking aout how much time it takes. Do you want us to post first payment on here after 1st Jan or doesn't it matter. BIG THANKS AGAIN
