One debt Vs 100 days ~ Take Three

Options

Comments

  • Hello PaP. I was a member of the first 100 day challenge but didn't do too well as I had to drop out due to some family issues (had three family deaths within the space of 6 weeks!)

    Anyway, things are better now and I have three small debts I'd like to clear by August 9th (my birthday, in fact!)

    So I'd like to clear:

    Catalogue: £61.91
    Virgin CC: £220.04
    Mint CC: £387.46

    Total = £669.41

    Thank you!

    Hi PAP

    I want in again please. I managed to clear off my first goal last time but still have some remaining on the second goal. Anyway, I pledge to pay off my barclaycard which stands at a shocking £1,240 at the moment.
    I hope I can pay it all but anything is a bonus so I better get thinking of ideas for when the challenge starts.
