    I've done £10 a day a few times, and I've nearly managed it, or just topped it every time. But I'm moving to France in September til April as a part of uni (teaching English) and I could really do with paying off as much of my £1400 overdraft as possible before I go.

    So let's make it a challenge and sign me up for £15 a day please. I've already sold most of my valuable stuff, but I've got LOADS of stuff left to sell for a couple of pounds each.

    Good luck everyone.

    Hi all, just jointed and trying to get my head round how much debt i'm in.

    £10 (£300 p/m) in savings/extra income would be a nice way to start.

    1st thing i'm doing tomorrow is stopping smoking so there is £3.10 saved straight away :D only another £6.90 to find.

    Pah, it'll be a doddle. :rolleyes:

    Good luck with new baby 6969annw! And the challenge too!

    Is it cheating that the Ebay stuff I have on already I'm going to pool into Augusts total?! Hope not as I'm scared that this month's success was beginners luck!

    Hi All

    I am running pay day to pay day so my first earnings are £7.11 on BOGOFS from last nights shopping.

    It was my birthday yesterday and I got £65 cash. Would you count this as well or is that cheating a bit? :o

    Thanks

    Hi all :hello:

    rainy, Xs you cancount whatever you want, we all do it differently. Some people count money saved using vouchers/bogofs etc, some people only count hard cash. (that's what I do-only cos I loose focus unless I'm actually aiming to pay something in particular!- very childish I know!)
    so it's up to you what you count ;-)

    ps- I'm off work now until mon 17th wo hoo. X

    Hello everyone, anyone know how long bing0port redeems take? I put in for an Amazon voucher.
  • Right I have no idea how, bit I'm up for £10 a day. Need to overpay the minimum on my horrendous Marbles by at least £88 each month, if I could do at least that I'd be oh so happy.....
