    I pay it straight off the card. I just want to see my totals going down! I use an app that has all my debts listed and tells me my debt free date. My aim is to get that date to move sooner!

    Which app do you use? I like the idea of that.
    Did owe £9,951.96

    Now helping hubby pay off loan. Finally paid off :j

    I am unbelievably late the the party this year but can I join please? My debt hit its peak in June after a bout of bad luck. Since then I’ve been furiously chipping away at it- starting debt £14202, current debt £11914

    That’s 16% paid off already!

    I’ll update again for October in a few days :D
    £20k in 2023 = £2718 £2023 in 2023 = £196.41 Grocery challenge £250= £195.80 **MONEY MAKES ME HAPPY**

  • I am now at 4%! Mainly from survey type things and some ebay sales. Really nice to have such a small 1% as hitting each milestone quickly.
