Clearing down debt... am I approaching this the right way?

Hey guys

Just wondering if I'm going about this correctly.

All rounded figures;

Income £2000 per month

House hold bills £728

Entertainment subs £20 (amazon prime and Microsoft for PC/Xbox)

Debts AO £60per month Credit card £150 PC World £13 Loan £165.00

Savings £400 [easy access]

Slush for food, fuel £450

The balances on the debts are; AO £187 PC £60 Credit card £720 Loan £7000 (2.75% annum and 5.9%APR)

At the minute I'm using the easy access savings straight to the credit card at the end of the month (had a large car repair).

My aim is to pay the credit card off, then the AO and PC world and start making overpayments on the loan.

Should I be doing it differently? My mortgage goes up by £150 in Feb24 so i want that gone to absorb the increase so to speak. I also get a £3,000 bonus in jan (gross so will need taxing) - That ill maybe use to pay off of either the mortgage/loan.
