    How are people making the extra money on this challenge. I have been adding a load of stuff to ebay but only one of 1 items has sold for 99p!!!!!!

    Wondering if I should do a boot sale?

    I’m back and more determined than ever!!!!!

    Hi Tasha, I'm not generating extra money - well apart from when I can get some overtime in.

    While the challenge is on I go back to taking packed lunches to work, not buying myself any clothes or smellies etc (unless its really essential), no magazines/coffee/chocolate at work and no going out and spending money during my lunch hour. Anything like that, that fritters money away. It soon adds up.
    This time I haven't smoked since 6th Jan 2014 and still going ok.
