    Can I join please? I am a bit of a newbie to the debt-free board, but really need to get control of my finances (I've had my "light-bulb" moment!).

    I'd like to aim for bronze if that's ok? xxx

    Have added everyone to the list, it's great to see so many of us have already got a little something in our pots. The first update will be 19th July (short I know but they will then run monthly) so PM around then and I'll update totals.

    The challenge this time is running for 23 weeks. Think that's about £44 per week to make bronze, £87 for silver, £130 for gold and £174 for platinum - not much if you say it quick. I'm sure we'll smash the Sizzler total though!
