Hi madcatgirl and welcome to the challenge, the more the merrier.
Nothing more to update from me, just popping in to see how everyone is doing. Must pull my finger out and stop faffing though, as have been a bit lazy recently and not done any of my daily clicks or surveys.:j Live on £4500, £2531/£4500:T 101 in 1001 (52/101):j:beer::j

Thanks Alimac and Andan - I am a planner by the way, that's my job! I've updated my signature to show my savings today and my Isa interest I also got today. Is it cheating counting interest received? I can't do it without it! I might sign up to the £10 a day in March challenge if there's one running, to help boost my figures.March 2016 - £178,914.59; July 2017 £146,160.38
Mortgage end Sept 2043; Target - pay off by March 2022, now Sept 2021

Hmmm, what about overpayments though? Otherwise I don't think we quite have £10k we can pay off... (without loan).No longer using this account for new posts from 20130

Gemmzie,
I think it's entirely up to you what you want to include it the challenge. It's your personal challenge and you should suit you. For me it's all about clearing the unsecured debt, but everyones priorities will be different.1.Virgin CC: [STRIKE]£9432.00[/STRIKE] £10290.00
2.RBS CC: [STRIKE]£3254.62[/STRIKE] £3029.61
3.M&S CC: [STRIKE]£1262.11[/STRIKE] £464.95
4.Next: [STRIKE]£400.00[/STRIKE]. £280.00
TOTAL = [STRIKE]£14348.73[/STRIKE] £14064.560 -
overpayments should count as they are extra IYSWIM...GL everyone..nothing to report today0

Evening everyone!
Just received £6.83 from rpoints, so that's gone straight towards the savings. Totalling £547.18 savings so far. I'm really enjoying seeing the total go up, and it's only day 2 of my challenge. Almost 5.5% there... Still a long way to go. Good luck all!March 2016 - £178,914.59; July 2017 £146,160.38

I hate my shortened signature now, lol, I have a chunk of savings for this challenge (it's 0% debt now
:j) but don't want to include it until it's paid off!
