I am looking forward to finally checking my bank account and seeing plus signs instead of minus ones, and getting cash out without it saying 'you currently have £0 available for withdrawal'. Oh yes, and enjoying myself feeling I have earnt it.
Not to forget my iPhone of course

Hi everyone :wave:

When I'm debt free I will be changing my mortgage to an offset one and chucking money at that instead

With a bit of hard work and luck this year my monster bank claim back charges campaign will pay off and I'll be almost debt-free by the start of 2009.

I sincerely promise to myself that I will never, ever get into such a state again where I am at the point of a nervous breakdown and too scared to go home because of opening the mountain of post or picking up the phone.

Lots of love Sassers xxx

I paid off my grad loan in December with my last salary. It means I'm flipping either side of the interest free portion of my overdraft for the next three weeks...

So now I'm going to be saving and investing, because the £500 interest free portion of my overdraft is no stretch really, and my student loan will be paid via PAYE anyway.

At this point I wanted to spend £1000 or so on a top notch laptop, but since planning this year financially, I figure that it would be too big a chunk of my potential savings! Talk about being a massive money geek - I've talked myself out of rewarding all my frugality in the past two years.

I told myself I could buy a laptop if I save for it out of my budgeted spending money. That would entail a lot of selling stuff on eBay.

I'm most looking forward to canceling every single credit card, moving to a current account with no overdraft and doing some saving up! I've got myself to the point where I get more pleasure from not spending money than I do from spending it now.....
