  • Hiya,
    Sorry its so late, but can I please join this challenge? I have been away for 2 weeks and have missed the start, also I'm new to this but would like to challenge myself.
    I'm starting small, with a £350 storecard debt that i would like to clear, and when I realised that i probably spend more than £3.50 per day on bits and pieces, I realised how nice it would be to clear this debt, rather than let it drag on into next year!! :eek:
    Thanks
    Pay off as much as you can in 2011: £780/£8000
    Vouchers through surveys/shopandscan: £10/£250
    Ebay/Paypal target for 2011: £109/£1000

    just spotted a casino on quidco paying £60 for depositing and wagering £30.

    it's on the left hand side when you log-in. it's called jackpot city.

    i am going to do it when i get home tonight. i will play roulette and bet £2 on black 15 times. by doing this you should come out with the best part of your £30 and maybe even win a bit plus get your cash back!
  • £50.71 paid today so that is £215.71 paid off :Dand leaves £1079.73 to go:eek:
