Hi there,
I wanted to update and give my debt remaining this year
#033 is £0.00/£398.56
I am disappointed that I didn’t manage to get debt free this year but hopefully will be by February. I am holding on to the fact I have got a small buffer now to stop me turning to the card and unessercery spending.
Thank you

Loved this challenge for paying off my debt. It was the most motivating place for me on here. I'd like to rejoin this year as a saver.
I have a monthly saver I can put odd bits of money in through the month. My planned 250E per month should equal 3k in a year, I would like to save 5k. My budget is so tight this will need to be through making extra money.
I already have 1k in there, so:
Please add me for 6K, Current: 1/6k19/12/14: Spent 10 years of savings!!
:heart2: ..... to buy my first home. :heart2:
11K OP 31.03.19
Current goal: €151,000 deposit Ireland and counting, to buy Spring 2022 we hope!1 -

I'm not going to lie - the changes to overdraft charges are going to seriously hamper how quickly i can pay things off. I will go from 20 a month in charges to 57 a month. Originally i wasn't going to be able to clear the overdraft until october but it may take me longer. Its frustrating that they have been allowed to jump this much. I have no other way of cutting my costs. I have done a budget overhaul and am frugal as i can possibly be. its going to be a long slog. Its a good job this thread is motivating...as well as others.
Sorry guys...rant over.:eek:Declutter 2020 - 267/2020 :j
