I put an item on Ebay last night - whatever I get for it (hopefully I get something) it will go straight off my CCs.Debt free and Keeping on Track0

Hypno, can you sign my up for the full 20k please!
I like your logic... if I'm paying a fortune each month anyway then surely it can't be that difficult (famous last words) to up the ante and get 20 fat ones knocked of my debt in a year.
How much do you think I'll get on E-bay for a boisterous puppy and a Wife?

Hi
Could I please join this thread too, I have £17,000 of cc debt so would have that as my aim.
I have a bet with my bf that I can pay off my credit card debt before he gets his inheritance in December 09 so this is a great challenge for me.
I'm also doing the £15k paper hat challenge, but will start from 0 with this challenge and will just add the payments I make from now to my total.
I'm loving all these challenges. Will be doing the Payment a Day one after Xmas to pay off earlier.
ThanksSealed Pot Challenge #0160 -

I was able to get a payout on my free scratchcards this morning, so another £10 off my total....
I've also done 2 MS and I have another 1 today and I've got some other work I'm doing too...it soon all adds up.
I wouldn't have wasted this extra money but having a running total is really encouraging!0 -
Paid another £400 off a card!0
