Hi
I have decided to set myself a little challenge using the inspiration I have got from this site and running along side other challenges. I am going to aim to pay off £5000 by New Year - I don't know if this is physically possible but I am moving in with my boyfriend and have rented out my house, so my costs are going to be seriously reduced and if I can make a good dent, I will be happy
So starting today...can I do it?? Anybody who would like to join me in this quest or offer me ideas, I would appreciate it. Already do lightspeed and valued opinions, have listed a couple of items on ebay and amazon. Sold 2 items yesterday (for £8.25) but its a start!!
Lets do it
