You can get 1000 points a day for posting on forums. You can also get points for winning bingo! A full set of bingo cards for a game costs 48 points. 8000 points redeems you an amazon gift certificate.

Nothing for me today - but it is payday tomorrow so fingers crossed that there is a little left in the pot to make an additional payment!

I feel really down today about my debts. Even though I know that I have paid off a lot since the start of the challenge I feel like I'm not moving this month and that I'm never going to clear them

Hi Mel,
Don't worry I have had the same thoughts as you have at more than one point during this challenge, looking at your signature you are doing pretty well.
Try not to be too tough on yourself, at least you (like the rest of us), are dealing with our debt.Mortgage £25,789.17/£24,918.14/£22,921.47

Hi Mel,
I get days like that too - when everything seems such hard work for a rewards that's so long away.
You're doing amazingly well though, and should be so proud of yourself for doing it! No-one (other than on this forum that is) knows that I have any debts at all - and sometimes I feel like telling them just so they would know how much effort I am putting in to getting rid of them!
We're all with you - so don't worry about being down.
