Roadkill Rebels September 2014
Hello Roadkill Rebels, Welcome to the September Challenge. The drill is still the same: find as much roadkill as you can between May 1st and 31st. As HOK3Y said when she launched the first challenge in October 2013, "the only stipulation is that it must be found outside of your home and/or car - it has to be money that…

September 2014 - Make £10 a day challenge
A friend once told me that September is like January to her - time to still make changes in this year and start afresh. So let's make this one a good one! This is the 85th month of this challenge, which was first started by Batgirl, in September 2007. :money:We have been going strong for 7 years!:money: Thanks to Batgirl…
The Meal Plan Challenge
I've decided to start this thread to help me save some pennies on my grocery shopping. I half halfheartedly did this month's grocery challenge. I didn't set a budget and just decided to see how much I spent. I've done the maths and with a week left, spends amount to £593.05 :( This clearly explains why I have no money. We…

Or when Tesco has a…
The "How Many Days Can You Go Without Spending" Challenge.
So I saw a challenge on Frugal 2014 and decided my challenge would be to not spend anything this month. This gave me an excellent idea for a challenge which you will save 1000s in doing. It will be tough but we are all here to support each other. Plus it'll be worth it in the long run. So the challenge is to see how many…
sudden contact from creditors after several years
Hi, In 2006 I entered into a joint IVA agreement with my husband (at the time). We later separated in 2007, but he agreed to continue to keep up the payments on the IVA and I agreed to not hassle him for child maintenance payments for our son. It has been my understanding that this was completed and the issue was resolved.…
The Super September 'Back to School' NSD Challenge!
We are a happy (and some might say mildly insane) bunch doing battle with those retailers - and there’s plenty of temptation out there at the moment. We are seriously committed to saving money, but nobody said it can't be done with a smile on your face - so we organise riotous nights out and gatecrash any function going -…
