    Im really going to make it work this time, 2011 will be my year! Im going to save plenty, spend wisely and get rid of Mr.nat's CC bill! I need to make it work, next year will be tight with me not working(had a bambino) and a very likely redundancy coming mr.nat's way. So lets get Christmas out of the way, I had my pot of christmas money but its all gone-and some! Ruddy kids...! Now a new pot will be made, any money made in 2011 will go in this pot and at the end of every months challenge whatever has been made will pay off a bill. Its not much but its a start and more importantly its a manageable start! Who's with me?!! Lets each chose a debt to get rid of and 'make' money to get rid of the blimmin thing! YEAH!!!

    2011 HERE I COME!!

    If someone owes you money, did you give them some previously and you're now getting it back? Not really making or saving money so I would say no not really

    What kind of expenses? Petrol costs I suppose could count as you might be making more than paying out although with petrol costing going up and wear and tear on the car I would say maybe not - its not something I count. If its something you paid out and you are now getting it back thats not money making

    I only count money made otherwise it defeats the object of the "Make £10 a day" challenge. But everyone does things differently so others might feel otherwise

    £48 and a bit cashback to add today, £6 Tesco vouchers and £3.92 & £5.01 from an Amazon sale
    Not been here in years! Hi everyone. Make £10 a day challenge = £78.45/155
  • I got £26 of clubcard vouchers in the post this morning unexpectedly :T

    Although i think £19 of those may be from the lost ones i claimed from the link in last months challenge thread ~ so im going to add £7 to my total.


    Nat ~ im with you on getting debts cleared in 2011, i can't wait until christmas is out of the way, i love the feeling of a new year, so im looking forward to getting started in the new year, more organised, a bit more money savvy ( still learning!) & focused on clearing debt.

    count me in for clearing overdraft - same amount as above. I love the new year and new starts. thought i would really struggle doing this challenge and although only about half way to my target for this month its much further than i expected to get. Thanks to all for the positive thinking
