I have a target of just over £2856 for 100 days....so £28.56. Thats going to be my standard overpayment. Iv made 4 already all going out tomorrow. So really if the challenge is due to start tomorrow its day 1 and il be on day 4 :T obviously il count the standard payments that go to the 2 cards, overdraft and the loan so i will maybe round them up to the nearest multiple of £28.56 so i can stick to "days" and i will see what day the challenge is on compared to what day im on...if that makes sense? It does to me!
Also with interest going on end of April, May, June and July it will probably be more than £3,000 i have to pay off....il definatly do it though!Work in progress...Update coming July 2012.

I am strangely excited about my pay-day on Thursday. Not beacuse I want to treat myself BUT because I want to make my first debt repayment as part of this challenge. I have/will also...
1. Check around my bedroom for any money that is laying around. (I am very bad for emptying change from my pockets and forgetting it)
2. Check what is left in my bank account day before pay day and transfer this to the debt. (I have already started to watch my pennies so will have a little left in the account- maybe £40???)Debt now £48,000 in the form of a mortgage0 -

Hi everybody,
Many thanks to Amara for doing this challenge. First time I have taken part but hope to do £2400 in 100 days.
This clears off Asda and Tesco credit cards which are on the highest rates of interest.
Then I have to (gulp) get down to the biggies!!
Oh well - one step at a time as they say.
Good luck everybody!:j'Bird bird, bird is the word'Long Haul Supporter's Thread no.269The RamonesPresent debt £224365.56Debt free June 20160 -

Hi Amara,
I have been eagerly awaiting this challenge as I was too late to join in the last one.
Please could you put me down for £2690.51, (personal loan) as this is the loan with the biggest montly payment, the sooner this is gone the better so we can then snowball this onto our other debts.
Regards
