    :hello:

    Well finally my Credit Card is below the £2K mark. :j Hopefully it should be cleared by the end of November. :D (if I knuckle down and get my tax rebate money and my Quidco money).

    I am so chuffed. Debt below £7K and credit card below £2K. :o The next target is Credit Card to be below £1K. ;)

    :hello:

    Its not been going terribly well this month.

    I have spent more than I should, and cant get motivated to pay off my debt at all. Its taking its toll on me now. :o

    I want to be interest paying debt free by the end of this year but its not looking likely. I dont know, i just feel rubbish this month.

    Fingers crossed next payday will be a better time. And next month will run more to plan?:confused:

    Nevermind.

  • I know how you feel Amy.

    Been feeling exactly the same coupled with having to save up for things so not been overpaying my debt. Got another few weeks then i should hopefully be back overpaying the debt but getting to the point im so fed up with it (which i know is my own fault for having it in the first place)

    I'll give you a kick up the A**e if you give me one! :rotfl:

    Thank you. I know sometimes i need to take a step back and look what I have achieved. And think that if i didnt have some determination I woudl still be in £11K worth of debt, probably more.

    Hiya

    Yeah sorry, been away and all sorts have been happening.

    Should really do an update! ;)

    Well it was payday yesterday, and I made a small payment to my CC of £90 making it at its current total (see sig!). I should hopefully be able to make a big lump sum payment this month, but im going to wait until near the end of the month so I dont make myself go overdrawn. Im aiming to get my debt down below £6K this month. I should be able to do it with Quidco paying soon and some money won on a scratch card. Fingers crossed :D

    How have you been?
