I'm missing a trick on ebay - a year or so ago someone fraudulently used my ebay and paypal account so they froze them. Easy peasy to set them back up-not!! Happened to change my bank account in the meantime and it became a mare. Mind you, that might be a good thing for me. I def would buy more than I'd sell...

So have we started this already?

So far I've paid off £635 since I started in October. I've been doing some some calculations though and that means that if I'm going to make £10k by the end of 2010 I'll need to pay off £721 per month until then which is about £400 more than I usually pay on my debts.
I really shouldn't be allowed anywhere near a calculator... I only get carried away! :rotfl:

Ha ha Amatheya I get carried away to and have been known to take a calculator in the car at work with me.... just wish I could get a spreadsheet in there too! :rotfl:

Hows everyone getting on?

My ebay pile keeps getting bigger so im going to have to list somethings at the weekend just so I don't trip over them any more! But ive managed to sell a few things on amazon so I might start the challenge early :rolleyes:

Ok....I have done some calculations, to be debt free by the end of 2010 I need to pay £270 a month for the next 12 months - should be about doable (as long as I don't spend extra!!) I would love to be able to save some too, but not sure I will be able to. We shall see! I don't think on a single income with big mortgage, there is any way I could pay off and save 10k.. how are you guys doing it?
