  • Hi!!

    If I'm not too late to try and pay off some debt then I would like to set myself a target of £2k? It's not all of it by any means but doable by Christmas I hope xx

    Including the earlier than expected middle of August payment  (£2533) which I reported earlier, that leaves my total for August

    #26 Target £20491 - Paid (Aug) £3728

    Overall Paid off = £13679 or 66.7% of target

    Total left £6812 left with 4 paydays to go


    So bang on target which is a bit of a miracle, given that it was quite an aggressive target.  However lockdown is proving cheap, but the end of the year is expensive (not just Christmas - but annual items not all of which are saved for :blush: )


    I think I saw you in an ice cream parlour
    Drinking milk shakes, cold and long
    Smiling and waving and looking so fine

    Paid £298.09 in the month, meaning £2,902/£6270 paid off - 46%
    We went away for a week so reduced nursery fees meant I could put a bit extra on.  Also have a few items to sell which I'm going to sort this month for a little bit extra. 
    August Grocery Challenge     £301.53/£400.00
