    Hi Hmmm...

    Obviously every situation is different but I would suggest that you go for it. You will make great inroads to your debt and this will mean in the long-term you can spend more and more quality time together.

    Another £150 for me so another 1.5% making it 15% so far woopwoop 1%'s is so much easier and more managable than thinking £10,000


    Is this more money from your gaming? Do you have any "how-to"s since you appear to be very successful at this!

    Part of it is Bpsp10, i won £75.25 on saturday morning, as soon as I win a nice amount I log off and withdraw, not in that order lol then I don't reverse, I won £29,600 off only £20 in 2010, lent quite a Bit to family thats why I'm saving £10,000 to make a decent house deposit for our first home, the rest of the £150 is 3Bay sales and £20 of craft stock i sold to the m.i.l hehe x
    The 1% Challenge #76 - Debt 1 = £620 - 1% = £6.20 - 4.3%
    Debt 2 = £1600- 1% = £16 - 0%
    Debt 3 = £1012 - 1% = £10.12 0%

    Hello again everyone,

    No 17 here - hoping everone is well - espescially you happytails :o

    Well I have just transfered over £250 which was the money earnt from the craft sales, quidco etc (I decided to keep the odd £3 as I used a machine to pay in the cash which only accepts notes but did remember to transfer the £5 interest from halifax bank account for last month as well which made up the total.

    So I can now officially declare:-

    Member 17 = 70% :j

    Good luck everyone else with everything - I'm off to start getting ready for a massive crafting session once the kiddos have gone to bed as I need more stock ready for two craft fairs booked this weekend :p

    First Anniversary Combo Breaker
    Well its been a while since i last posted but number 91 checking in!

    Haven't been up to much in terms of earning extra ££ but i have started PADing and this is working well for me. Unfortunately its been a bad month on the CC so i've been paying that off with money I would have loved to have gone in the 1% pot (it would have been another 4% this month!) however i'm please to say that I am now at

    6%

    may seem small but its lovely seeing it in my ISA!
  • I seem to be increasing my debt :(, did get a barclay card and done a balance transfer on 0% deal :). Think i'm going to concentrate on getting the o/d down then the cc. At least it's payday on Friday and I can get another 5.77% paid off :).
