Hi Guys,
I feel like I've kind of abandoned you all, and this challenge during March. I've been really busy with my uni course, and will be really busy during April as well. Also my hubby is in work and thanks to this challenge I've basically got rid of my two expensive debts, cc and car loan. So the urgency to make more money has diminished somewhat.
So with great regret I'm going to declare at £220 which is the first time I've not met my target. Probably going to reduce target to £5 for April and then up the anti when my uni course finishes. Got stacks of stuff to ebay and spring sort outs to do to produce more, so plenty more scope for this challenge yet.
Well done everyone, and thanks Aureol for managing thread this month. You've done a fab job. :T0 -
Ah well done misswissy, you have a lot going on and still managed to make £220, so well done to you. :T0

Declaring for this month at a rather fab £581.36. Very pleased - no idea how it got so big apart from some utility switching that saved us a huge amount.0

I'm well behind my challenge, got £9.60 in savgins from Tesco yesterday, but that's it for me in March. Was going to miss getting the bus today, but one look at the weather and I decided against it!!
So made £142.58 this month, not too far off considering this is my first month doing this!
Have started listing a load of stuff on ebay for April's challenge, so hopefully will reach my target next month!Sorting my life out to give a better life to my:heartsmil 2 gorgeous boys :heartsmil0 -
Another £20 from Paypal has cleared in my account today - was hoping it would clear tomorrow and give me a head start for April
Also I managed to accept a f&f for one of my Egg cards, it has cost me a little more in interest as I have used my overdraft to pay it but knocked around £350 off the debt so I am still £300ish better off. Would never have been in a position to pay it without this challenge so thank you everybody!
Won't count that though so declaring at £152.17 for March.Barclaycard [STRIKE]£7,296.35[/STRIKE] £6134.99 - MBNA [STRIKE]£4,182.88[/STRIKE] £3267.08 - O/draft [STRIKE]£569.31[/STRIKE] £413.59 - Capital One [STRIKE]£1477.55[/STRIKE] £1451.44Total debt [STRIKE]£12048.54[/STRIKE] £11267.10 6% paid0 -
