1 debt vs 100 days chapter 31

Think of going out after 3 years as a little treat to yourself..........you need a treat every once in a while whilst on your debt free journey otherwise it might have a negative affect on your state of mind. Maybe aim for a small target and treat yourself after you've accomplished your target.
My treat to myself is to buy a charcoal chenille high headboard bed once I've cleared my barclaycard xx

Paid £60 off today. That leaves me broke this week. Had to clear one card before interest free period ran out.
£1067/£1716 62% cleared in 22 days woo hoo. £649 to go.
Well done on clearing the card before interest kicks in.
