    Glad to see everyones doing fab already, another £33.06 paid off today (making a total so far of £395.76) from selling some vouchers and using a voucher offer on some shopping and putting the voucher amount towards this challenge.
    I also got some good news today in the form of a letter from the council asking me if I wanted to work the elections again this year, so that should be some extra money I can throw at the debt:T

    As of tomorrow my first monthly amounts will be paid, will update then, anything I make over and above my basic outgoings will be paid off this challenge, and I'll try and work out what I have actially paid off and not include interest payments (should work for most of my debts- the two loans may be tricky mind!)
    Good Luck All
