    I've made a small overpayment to my credit card and I have also got xmas presents sorted out. I'm a bit late with this normally I've done it all by the end of September

    How is everyone?? As Taxi says its very quiet.

    Well... its been a year since i had my lightbulb moment :idea: and I've worked out that I have paid off over £6,500. I never thought that would be possible when I first started this but with the help of this challenge it has kept me motivated. I've already been thinking about what targets I'm going to set myself for 2009 and I'm determined to reach them but unfortunatly unless I win the lottery I'm not going to reach my target for this year.

    Well done at clearing that £6500 madmich :T What a difference a year and a bit of focus and effort can make!

    I am still throwing any extra at my debt, but it has slowed down a touch this month....still, every little helps!

    well I paid an extra 1.00. Not much but I get paid tomorrow. Car loan is gone thankfully! So I can concentrate on the rest. Using Quidco on any purchase I can (necessary purchases only), how come I never used it before I wonder?
    CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera. You can enjoy it even if you don't understand it and too much can give you a headache the next day J

    Another 306 pounds paid off. Not sure I'll make the 20K goal by the end of the year though, but I'll try.
