    Debt-free and Proud!
    HI ev1 :) how's it all looking for the final week of our August Challenge???

    I met my target already - actually i smashed it :D :j but i'm being very good and trying to get another wee boost in for this week!

    I paid another £50 off my Mortgage arrears last week leaving me with just £78 of a balance - i have been paying money off my Avon bill as well so i can get back to selling it and making a wee bit more hopefully if i am well enough to get the books out!

    I am delighted to say that i have actually paid over £1000 off my debts this month thanks to the £10 per day challenge:A :T unfortunately there are more to pay but i am much more positive about my whole financial situation after the great confidence boost i have got from doing so well this month ;)

    Ok so for my final push for dosheroo this month i am actually doing not 1 but 2 car boots today - just finished one and even though it rained quite a bit i came home with £38! The next one starts about 3 so hopefully the rain will be away by then! LOL

    I also have a few listings on ebay finishing tomorrow and with any luck another 2 car boot sales over the weekend - whew!!!!!! bootied out this month hahahahahaha! been sooooooo worth it though :) and my garage has actually got a floor again :rotfl:

    What is everyone else's plans for a final push in August? Come on guys you know you can do it !!!!! :rotfl: :beer:

    Ells xx

  • £8.06 from ebay sales after fees etc have all been taken off! Up to £142.45 now and very very pleased as it's helped cover a few unexpected expenses this month! Plus it's enabled us to pay a bit extra off on our 1 debt in 100 days challenge!:)
    It's definitely inspiring doing this...has made me do a few more survey sites, and have got £13 so far this month from them...but not counting it until it's in the bank account, so it might end up being in next month's tally...either way, this is an AWESOME challenge and credit to the folks who keep it going, and have done in the past! Legends! :T
    £10 a day in November = £593.31 / £300

    Completed a MS today but wont add to my total until I've been paid it, found 5p on the floor and I am counting down the seconds til my ebay items finish! Got some good bids so far so I am hopeful of getting somewhere near my target!
  • I haven't made any pennies the last few days but I have an ebay item finishing tomorrow. It's looking promising for a bit pocket money :D
