Wow! Well done :T

Thanks, though like you-some of them are minimum payments (but only a couple of hundred), we have also cut back on things to enable us to overpay on other things.

Hi all so far i have paid off £172.79 off £3500. this has been by paying off more than minimum on both my credit cards. Next month i hope to pay off more as i listing lots of things on ebay and plan to use this money to help pay the cards off.

the credit card companies are going to love us lot arent they.

im loving this challenge - i actually think im getting a little bit obsessed!!!! oh well there are worse things to be obsessed by.

im now off to do my second job (the one that all the money is going towards debt repayment - woo hoo). can wait for the extra wages so i can make another payment.

have a great weekend everyone and keep up the amazing work im so impressed xx

Hi Everyone,

I have been reading most days even though I have not posted as have not had the money to make extra payments I have lost some more hours in my p/t work though hope that things pick up for the company a bit later in the year this has meant I've not had the money I was expecting. In addition to this I've had to pay to have a leak fixed :eek: - there's always something isn't there?

Anyway I have been really uplifted and inspired by everyone sharing the details of how they make extra funds to throw at the debt so a big thank you to you all for this.

So, as I have said i work a p/t job - this is to cover basic outgoings as the job i got after being made redundant does not cover this and any surplus goes towards the debt.

I also:

e-bay (though i've done so much i'm struggling to find things :rotfl::rotfl:
greenmetropolis - have had books listed on here for some time
MS - when I am lucky enough to get the jobs
surveys

That's all i can remember for now - I also keep the food shopping as low as possible though OH has expensive tastes :rotfl::rotfl:

:mad: £37.84 used to payoff the sneaky bit of interest Natwest added to my credit card before I switched it over to a 0%.

Gits.

Oh well, at least now all my debt is 0% except the HSBC overdraft, which is where all extra funds are going now :T

I snowballing

So new total for 119 = £933.68/£12,000
