You are doing brilliantly!:j...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0

Go Jules, Go Jules, Go Jules!!!!!
Once you get those higher APR debts payed off first, it frees up more money to pay the remainder!
You're doing great so far!
How addictive is this site?
...Linda xxIt's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.0 -
Very addictive!
I never thought I could go from spending money like there's no tomorrow (hence my problems) to obssessively trying to cut my rate of debt down and trying to save money wherever I can. How weird is that? All in the space of one week - I feel like my whole world has turned upside down :rotfl:Debt Feb 2008 £36,413.74 - Estimated DFD July 2011:dance:woohoo_party_ £10 per day Feb challenge - £312.50/£210

Thanks for that
After I've paid off the Marbles card, which card should I tackle next? presumably my Egg card? Would I then be better off trying to clear some off my Halifax card to get to paying off balance at 19.9% asap? I realise the lower balance transfer gets paid off first. Any advice greatly appreciated (my head hurts !!
)
1. Egg - Purchase balance of £1,718.91 apr 17.9%
2. Halifax - Purchase balance of £7,806.44 apr 19.9%
Balance transfer of £1,950 apr 6.95% + 1% fee
Balance transfer of £3,699.35 apr 3.9% + 3% fee
Total - £13,455
3. Sainsburys - Purchase balance of £1,676.71 apr 12.9%
Balance transfer of £6,136 apr 6.95%
Total - £7,812
Thanks again
Jules
Jules,
Go for the Egg after Marbles, then see if either of them will do another BT deal for you.
Well done on everything u have done so far, ur doing great!
