Hi I'd like to join in too although I can't start officially till the 15th as that's when I get paid :rolleyes:
I just want to pay off all my debts but think I will concentrate on my bcard first which is about £200-ish. I balance transferred and this was what I couldn't do. I'll probably bank the loose change from my purse once a week.

Hi All
I have paid 50p each off my Egg and Tesco card today using my internet banking but they won't actually go out until Monday. If I am going to do a payment a day I think I might pay a tiny amount off something else tomorrow (which of course will also only go out on Monday). This feels gooooood!PigginSkint's debt free diary

Oooh, how exciting.... I was going to buy a nice cappuccino and sandwich out for lunch today, but realised I wouldn't then be able to pay back my £5 today.
So - took a deep breath, walked past the expensive coffee shop and came home and actually put in what I estimated the cost to be = £6.50!
Very pleased with myself. If it wasn't for this challenge, I would probably just have spent the money....Debt at lightbulb moment: £44,220. Paid off to date: £27,634 (62%) :j
Halifax CC (0% 10 months): £9,000; Zopa Loan = £7,586([STRIKE]36[/STRIKE] 16 payments to go) TOTAL = £16,5860 -

Welcome all newcomers - you have been added to the list
Didn't find anything else at my boyfriend's so it's just my £1 for today.

This is a brilliant Idea!!
I keep panicking about how I am going to pay my cc debt off before the interest free time runs out. If I can work out how much of it I would need to pay off daily (I have a DD for min payment) I could kind of pay it off almost by accident......
hmmm.
FAB idea though I love it!!!Nevertheless she persisted.0 -
I did my sums
always depressing. it would take 18.38 every day to pay off the CC in my sig.
I wonder if I could afford that. It would be a completely different approach to my debts.
Right well If I can't do the 18 pound I can pay something. even 3.50 a day would be a start.
can I go on the list please?
xx
Edited cos I can't add up.
I have around 240 days left of 0 %
I should pay off 16 pound roughly speaking to get shot of it
that is 480 pounds or so per month. which I don't think I can afford!! I might be able to.
any how I will pay off 10 pounds each day plus the minimum payment once a month and then add on ebay Avon money.
this thread has really got me thinking!!Nevertheless she persisted.0 -
Can i join in?
Im going to snowflake money from my current account into my (shiney new) savings account with a different bank (i have been moving it within the bank but its too easy to take back)
So everyday i will check my balance and whenever it shows a number that is not a flat £10 (ie if it is £133 then £3 will be transferred)
I've just sent £7.52 over and im going to add any extra money to this challenge too (so my amazon payment and any Quidco money i get will go straight into the account)
Then ill use this to save a lump to take some money off my big credit card bill - this is such a good idea!!!!!0
