    debtbegone hugs xx
  • Debtbegone - hugs to you, I hope you’re okay hun?

    Afternoon all fellow challenge peeps! I haven’t posted for a few days so got a few bits to add -
    Mystery shop payment £16
    £10 from the scratchies
    £5 off my mum towards going out for tea with the girls - she’s such a star!
    Overtime £4.29
    £2 tips
    £2 petrol money from bro
    £17.42 from NS+I - was clearing out old documents last week, and found a savings book from when I was little, that I’d forgotten all about! I sent the book off to close the account and they sent me a cheque for £17.42 :D I wonder if I’ve forgotten about any other accounts… maybe one with a couple of grand in or something? :rotfl:
    £10 voucher from GFK media survey, yay! Didn’t think I’d won anything this month, as they usually email much earlier than this - well chuffed! Think I’ll turn it into a Debenhams voucher, as there’s a purse I’ve had my eye on for ages but not been able to justify buying.

    Have found a few things for the Ebay/carboot pile too - although my planned big clearout is hampered by the fact I’ve got no space to store everything while waiting for carboot day, so I just keep shoving it all back in the cupboard! Day off today and OH isn’t back from work for 3 hours, so I WILL spend the rest of the afternoon having a clearout. Also we have decided to change our photographer for our wedding next year, as had realised the one we had booked really wasn’t worth the money what we were actually getting. New one is £700 cheaper, result :D Won’t add that to the challenge as it would be cheating :p but it means we don’t have to save quite as much each month for the wedding, so it’s all good!

    Attempting to pay off our debts! Balances Jan 2018 -
    Family member £3,700 - Virgin CC £1,000 - MBNA £1,700 - Barclaycard £2,500 (was £2,700) - Halifax CC £1,280

    business mortgage £0))''(+ Barclay's business kitchen loan £0=Total paid off was £96105 PPI claimed and received £13527

    Great saving glitterjunkie :)

    Hugs to debtbegone too

    No money made for me yet today but I've done some overtime this week plus working tomorrow as well so next month should be good.

    Going to list some more things on Amazon/Play and possibly ebay too this evening to make up for it and I have a Lightspeed survey awaiting completion
    Not been here in years! Hi everyone. Make £10 a day challenge = £78.45/155

    Thanks peeps, it was quite a sudden family death so it's kind of tough and as I'm self employed I just can't take time off work or I'll have no money coming in at all.

    Feel rather cr*p and just dazed and tired, have to do "proper" work tonight so still no listing for me :o don't think I will make the target this month and still haven't heard from cc company to see if I've been accepted for a 0% card, don't know if that's a good/bad thing? Anyone know?
