Wow, how many new challengers

I too am very excited its the first tomorrow and have raided my usual pots etc to see what I can find for the first payment.

Right, as I'm working tomorrow I'm thinking about the first wodge of cash towards the 100 day challenge.
I have £60 from ebay sales in paypal or on the way to a "holding" bank account. I'm hoping to claw back £40 from the rest of the budgets from now until payday (2 weeks) to make it up to £100.

Hi!:hello:CAN I JOIN PLEASE?!
Found new thread just time
I would like to have a serious bash at clearing my HSBC CC- but I don't know exactly how much that is just at this second. I will look tonight and update!
Amount I'm aiming to clear is- £595Really :mad: with myself as a few months ago that was almost cleared and I've had to use it a bit recently.. well, I say 'had' to.
So if that's gone, or as close to gone as humanely possible, then that will be great.0 -

I am sure it is the 1st already somewhere in the world.
If we are confessing, i have set up a £30 payment to go out of my account tomorrow.
Right, last minute pointers.
When you report in can you use the format that PAP started off last challenge.
Please let me know the amount you have paid off, and the amount remaining towards your target. If you have set more than one challenge, let me know which target its coming off. It also helps if it is big or a different colour, or both.
Eg, for myself.
£30 paid to Zopa, so £270 remaining.
I'll set it up as PAP did so you can see what was paid off that day, and how everyone is doing in post 2 on page 1.
Thanks for your help. It will hopefully go smoothly. I will get the last few updates on now so we are good to go.0 -
I must confess that I too have payments set up to come out already
...we just like to be organised that's all. It's a woman thing
