One debt Vs 100 days

postingalwaysposting

Wow welcome all :T So far there are 28 of us and a whole pile of money that we want to pay off/save. I am glad to see a lot of you taking part, plenty of new faces as well as old ones too 7 days to go before we can start actively paying these off... Not long :j

Oh and those of you who are planning to ebay list before the 31st and its free listing fees :beer: As long as your auction ends on/after the 1st its not a problem. Get listing!

Hi Everyone

Can I sign up for this one please. I have a £500 overdraft I would like to get rid of.:mad: To get rid of this will help me start to feel a little more in control.

Free listing on ebay - as painful as it is I must get listing.

Good luck everyone.

Always

Hi Parsniphead
This is exactly how I feel about Ebay ... still it must be done, think I'll do mine Thursday. Oh and do every single survey I get rather than leaving most because I just can't face them Anyone got any recommendations for any good survey sites, I do Pinecone (hardly ever get anything from them) and Lightspeed but that's it.

Always

What a great idea! Could I please join in too? I'd like to pay off my Barclaycard of £240.10 within the 100 days.

I have worked out that of the £1,783.05 that I need to get rid of, £818.81 will be paid for with my usual payments before the 100 day challenge ends. Which leaves me with £964.24 to earn by other means :eek::eek::eek:

However, I have made a good start. I sold a disney DVD on play and made net profit of £18.31 :j so will add that once it has appeared in my bank account (won't be in until September so I'm not technically cheating by starting early. I don't think...)

I listed 6 items on ebay last night (such hard work, I completely agree), which will actually start on Thursday evening for 10 days. When I get a spare moment I will add more.

I'm going to add any extra pence from my current account into a separate account every day which should add up over the coming weeks.

If I'm really struggling by the end of the 100 days I think I *might* open up my £2 sealed tin which is feeling about a quarter full right now. Although I was originally planning on saving them up until I'd cleared my debts and then spend it on something really nice to treat myself, so not sure about that one.

Need to ransack my cupboards but really don't think I have nearly a grands worth of stuff in there so not sure how I'm going to make this money but will think of something / sell a kidney

Anyone else got more ideas?
