Morning All,
Well i am off the mark and have managed £74.56 so far:j. This is from some ebay, mystery shopping and a book selling on Green Metropolis. I have about 30 items listed on eaby at the mo and they finish next week so fingers crossed i can add it to the pot.:D i am about to claim some mileage costs back for using my car for site visits so can i include that?
Keep up the good work everyoneV 12500 B 8300 N 1900 Oct £51/£1550 -

I've made a great start by paying £260 off my total this week...:jmonthly repayments for my debts are huge and painful but I'm sticking at it to get rid of them [including a weekly budget of £40 for groceries and food for 2 of us]! I'm expecting my next update to be mid August when we find out how much we're getting closer to neutralising a big overdraft for our joint account...we've made about £500/£600 in progress since the Spring
We won't be getting near starting to repay our individual overdrafts until September/October but at least the bulk of other stuff (loans) will be paid off by then....
Work-wise my other half is expecting a lean period in the Autumn so we're really glad we're attacking our debts now. I only hope that we can start to save a small amount before this happens to give us a buffer to tide us over.
Good luck everyone! Will be watching your progress + tips!;)Our challenges:

:jHi all
Can I join in please:j have been watching these threads but they were always mid flow so didn't join,only 4 days late this time:rolleyes:
I already do some ebay but will list on my OH site to keep it seperate, am off to do my free scratch cards and check for any polls in my emails
Good luck everyone - we are off on hols in Nov so this will come in handy for spending money or to pay off CC before we go -off to US so they tend to take a bit of hammering over there:rolleyes:0 -

Are you on the grocery challenge? Mine works out at £23 per week for 3 of us, but my overspending has brought that down! :eek: £20 per person, per week sounds positively luxurious to me, you lucky person. :rotfl:
I've added the 3 new names, welcome Rummer, Jazzie99 and Lola34. As leader of this challenge, I am allowed to be totally rubbish at it, that's the main rule. :rotfl:
I've still not got anything to add but I am at £9.90 on free scratchies after this morning's £1 win. I could have £10 by Monday!I reserve the right not to spend.
The less I spend, the more I can afford.
