WOOHOOO!!!!! Paid off $953. worth of debt yesterday. Will have another $730 paid off in three months. Then will take extra money and put it towards another debt.Plus stocked up on groceries should be good for at least the month- if not then darn close -will have to buy fresh fruit and veggies plus milk as needed.

WOW way to go there!!!!!!!!!!!! It'is a great feeling isn't it?

Thank you. It is  an awesome feeling to have some things paid off. I just wish it was all paid off! It makes me feel good yet at the same time it's also "where'd the money go?". But alas ya cant have it both ways.

ditto!

We paid off a chunk of debt this month but had to hold some back for emergency savings and automotive expenses we knew we would incur. But I can't wait until it's all gone. I keep telling myself that when I drive by a newer car for sale I wish I had or when I'm in the store and I see that new whatever (this week it was a sofa and recliner set lol) that I'm attracted to.
