    Hi All

    Paid off the £40 from the boot sale today bringing my total to:

    £1252.63/£5423.06 which is 23.09% paid

    The boot sale on Sun really got me really fired up again for making some money, so I took some jewellery I don't and won't use to the jewellers and got £50! They gave it to me in a cheque so as soon as it's cleared I will mark it down. Need to sell the stuff I have left and find some more stuff to sell, I even joked to one of the guys at work I will be selling the work computers soon :rotfl:(of course I won't though :D)
    £9,000 (Ish) in 2013
    Paid:
    £32.20 / £4492.66 Debt
    £50.00 / £650.00 Holiday

    Another little payment today, taking me to £1437.58/£6000 paid :D

    Really looking forward to receiving the proceeds of an insurance/savings scheme that I have cashed in- will mean that I have £3000+ to throw at my debts, plus an extra £40 a month that I won't be paying into the scheme :j
    Also have just balance transferred £4000 at 0% for 20 months to MBNA- will be saving so much in interest payments a month :T
    Save £12k in 2021: Jan £1834.40, Feb £1692.81

    Paid off Lloyds!!! :j:j

    £25.41 overpayment, one loan finished, one to go!

    I am overexcited, this means that even if I get sick or OH we can still able to afford paying the rent, bills and loan repayment, as well as buying food for ourselves. This was my biggest worry when we took out the loans, but it's gone now. This also means that we are sub £15k on our flat meaning we will be mortgage and loan free by the end of this year!!!

  • Hi all
    I am new to this so please excuse mistakes me and OH have @ £30,000 to pay off. We are both at life changing stages in life so could do with some motivation.
    1st Step is to get an actual figure - aiming to do that tonight :-)
    2nd I have a list of things we can sell and suspected revenue. Step is to tell OH Yikes
    3rd Step loving the ebay ideas so in two weeks i need to spring clean and have a massive ebay sale and see how we get on.
    As a family this year we decided to hand make every present we could and so far i have managed it.
    so for now £30,000/£0 i really wanna see this rise - fingers crossed
