    Hi PAP - hope you're well!! Don't get on here as much as I'd like anymore...but it's nice to know that a lot of the regulars are still around!!

    It sounds like a great challenge. I'm lucky enough to be debt free, but am rubbish at saving!! I'm already trying to save for my christmas spends, so won't use this here - but will also drastically need some winter clothes (boots, coat, trousers etc) so I'm going to aim for £350 in 100 days!!!

    Won't be easy as we're moving house shortly and DH still on slightly reduced hours - but we'll see how it goes!!!!! :D

    Any other ideas for earning extra money with not much spare time?

    Hio,

    I have never completed a challenge before (I have tried but always fail). So I am going to sign up for £700 of of my Natwest Credit card. That will bring the balance under £1500.

    Good luck everyone.

    I’m back and more determined than ever!!!!!

    What a fab idea PAP!!:T

    Please could you put me down to clear my Virgin CC by 09/12/09 - £1431.91?

    I'm thinking payments of:-
    • 01/09, 01/10, 01/11, 01/12 ~ £25 minimum payments (£25 x 4 =£100)
    • 23/09, 23/10, 23/11 (23rd is payday!!) ~ £250 to savings (stoozing!) plus £188 direct to card (=£438 x 3 = £1314)
    • Which leaves £17.91 to find ~ which I'll try to save in my change jar!
    Thanks v much!!! x
