Well done on keeping the momentum going!
I do a lot of competitions, but I only ever use this site, it's all you need! Every comp I've ever wanted some kind person will have put on here. I haven't had any huge wins, but I've probably made a fair bit over the year as you can see from my sig. If you want any advice just ask, but as a beginner I would go to the comps thread, and then at the bottom set it to thread title, ascending from beginning. Then when they're all sorted search for tomorrow's date, enter any that you fancy and then do the same for the next day. Then you know you've covered anything that'll finish in the next day or two.
I also use roboform ( free to download) which automically fills my details in for me which saves a load of time!0 -
Wow they are some great wins I defo need to getthat roboform sounds gud us it easy?? Everything on here is great I have to admit I hav looked at the comps thread a few times but like u don't have time to keep filling them in!! How Manu a day do u enterTotal debt £17,135 total paid off £5250

As many as I can. If you can get on top of it then you could probably do all the ones you wanted in about an hour a day. Roboform is dead easy, go to the comping board and read the comping guide. It's the easiest way to get started.0

Thans for that minty will look that up!
those forms do drive me bizzerk!
Update on my mission t clear my DEBT and i feel its working Im puttng everything Ive got to clearning it and as you can see from my updated signiture since first startng on £9000 im now on £7400!!! Im mega happy its nearly down to that. I hav to say it has taken alot of effort, selling things on ebay, counting the pennies and pounds, budgeting with my food, allocating whatever! One of the main things that has worked for me is working with CASH :dance::dance: I know that sounds mad but pulling money out of the machine and spending cash not using my card! :T this makes me more aware of my spending as I can see what I have got and how much to last me! Ive got £30 to last me 17 days until payday. I hope it lasts......
ok so ive got over £7400.... im not stopping now but do have lot less options.
Ive got
£72 tracking quidco
£23 tracking on Topcashback
£56 Tracking on cashbackkings
Thats £151 on there! :beer: The good thing about this website is that I can get all my pressies online and claim back, plus next month need new car insurance (maybe about £50) and Im getting a new mobile phone contract, I have an iphone will sells for about £180 on ebay, plus theres another £100 for getting an iphone contract, but I will leave that for now until it happens.
I am also putting money and change everyday into my moneypot which im happily saving with the great people on the pot challenege 3!!
I have set a new plan for myself now with wages and paying off cards.
Bills £700 (which include basic card payments
Money for myself (inc petrol) £450
Money to wipe out debt £250
= £1400
If I get any overtime it goes straight off the debt. plus any extra petrol moneyowed.
SO im actually paying £430 off my debt every month. x 12 ===
£ 5160 - debt free in a year if I can carry on!!! ufortunatley xmas will prove to be difficult but we will see.
