    I am welling up!
    One of the most significant days of my life!
    I am 100% debt free apart from my home.
    My mortgage stands at £64,000 but I have no consumer debt.
    My journey begin 18 months ago when I said never again. I went on a scorched earth plan and sold everything I had including my car, my TV, no holiday, no eating out nothing. I have traveled on public transport and shopped in Aldi and spent nothing on myself other than bare necessities
    I have just made the final two full payments on a MBNA credit card and a Post Office Credit Card totalling £9,500.
    That brings my total paid off in 18 months to £54,273!!!
    I am so ecstatic right now!!!

    Make sure you add yourself to the Debt Free Roll of Honour

    That is amazing to hear. I am glad my experience could inspire the change for you too. One thing I can confirm, with all the hard work taken into account it is 100% worth it.

    How brilliant to clear that Sainsburys loan. I remember your first post and the mess you were in so you have done amazingly well to turn that situation around. I think you have a bright financial future ahead especially if you continue to budget but hopefully save rather than taking on debt in the future. Well done.
