    Hi Jen,

    I made it as £170.94 Jen, maybe my sums are wrong :rolleyes:
    Is that £17.04 extra a week to pay towards your debt?

    As Amy has already said, that definitely looks doable Jen, you go girl :T :j

    Amy, looks like its going to happen though-so exciting!!!!!!!!

    just worked out the extra i need each month and after paying off the 78 quid cheque ive got coming i will need an extra £124 if i want to be debt free by dec or £194 if i want to do it by november. hmmm looks like it may be december after all but thats not so bad if ive got all my presents before then.

As soon as the end of the challenge (end of the year )i will start a new thread for us, will be a debtfree/savings thread so we can stay on this board .
    Is that £17 extra jen or does that include what you are already paying?

    I am dead excited today MM, in fact i have stopped working! :rotfl:

    Didnt win any today Hayley, but did enter my 2nd code earlier. Fingers crossed I win. If not i will be buying another 2 cokes from Sainsburys! :D

    Right, i just need HSBC to let me win one of their competitions they have this month (£1,000 for logging onto banking - 1 winner per day in June, £1,000 for checking messages online banking - 1 winner per day, £5,000 for making a payement online (2 prizes) etc.) :p
