Can I join in too please?
Great idea; this should keep me focused to try and knock £10k off my debts next year. Woo hoo!
Will update sig.0 -
Hi Jenny,
I can't really speak about any of the other things you were talking about but I can highly recommend that you take some time to have a look at matched betting.
I've been doing it on and off for a couple of years now and would say that starting from scratch you could quite easily make a couple of thousand pounds over a year.
Even now that I've done most of the easy offers and don't spend a huge amount of time on it I usually manage to make between £50 - £100 a month.
Go on over to the Gambling Introductory Loopholes board and have a good look at the 'How To' sticky thread. You'll probably need to read it a few times before it starts to make any sense, I know I did but it's well worth it!
Hiya!
Thanks, I'm deffo going to spend some time tonight reading through and trying to work it all out then! A couple of thousand pounds will certainly make a dint in the 10K target!:money:0 -
I've put in my timesheet for the extra work I've completed over the last couple of weeks, which will be paid the first week of January, :j Hoping it's going to make a good dent in the right direction. Going to have a month of eating as cheaply as possible & not buy anything that is not needed to get in the right mind set of money saving. Hoping this increase my savings along with the extra work.Total debt £13318 :idea: paid £5660 Left to pay £7658 57%

We have loads of snow too, schools closed, no school transport, roads icy - luckily it's my day off today anyway. So I have closed the curtains so I can't see the snow and I have gone back to bed - as the house is so cold !!! :snow_laug8 years of being on a DMP finished 3/3/140
