    Hi everyone.

    Sorry Amara, I'm late on the thread, but can I aim for paying £1000 off my Mint card please? I failed miserably at the last challenge.
    Debt free since December 2015. It can be done

    Don't worry Karb, make sure you'll do better this time. I'm putting you on the list right now.
    I'll propably will suffer a back-up, at least temporary :( My DH's disk slipped and he's now sign on a week. He's in horrible pain and morphine tablets don't seem to work well. I feel awful. Now his health is the most important thing, but I can't help to feel frustrated. I'm thinking about he's income this week will be low, due sickness, we've just put his car thru MOT, needed some work doing, we haven't settled a bill yet. And I missed a minimum payment on my HSBC cc, my mistake, I was busy and forgot. They called my 5 times within ths weekend!
    Keep going, everybody.

    Hey All,

    A big Well Done to everyone (including the lurkers ;) following us and doing their own thing)! :T so far.

    Gold has gone up to a record high today £12 (approx) for 1 gram of 9ct gold! So, I'm gonna (very carefully and very respectfully ;)) raid my own jewellery box(es) :o, I know I've got a few broken pieces and a squashed (!) ring in there somewhere, so here's hoping.

    Also, I've discovered it's gonna be a free listing weekend (?) on Ebay (20th/21st Aug) through other posters in other threads (Thanx :beer:). I've never posted anything on Ebay before, but as it's free, it'd be rude not to ...:rotfl:...

    Hope that helps and that we can all become debt-free (asap ;)) together.

    Keep up the good work!!

    Totally agree re Ebay. After reading the thread on ebay I rummaged through the house and put stuff on that I would never use or were have used and people actually bought them :T I used it for the last challenge so have listed more stuff so fingers crossed they will sell.

    Keep it going everyone. And yes this is addictive but in a good way ;)

    Been looking around the house for things to sell and found these.

    Clinique Take the day off 200ml......used about three times.
    Clininque clarifying lotion 500ml......used twice. (it burns my skin)
    Clinique foaming face wash 200ml....used once. (makes my face feel tight)
    C Dior poison perfume.......80ml.....used about 6 times. (sets my asthma off)
    C Dior pure perfume.......all same as above.

    have just asked on the comsetics thread if they would sell one person said yes the perfume at least if nothing else.
    So all the money made from these items (if any) will be put to this challenge.
    Ebay 13 ;)........1583.46/2000.00 Amazon sales 54/50 Etsy sales 63/50
    Amazon 14.......4/50 Etsy14............46/75. Ebay........23/200

    Hello!
    I've done a tiny updating. My OH feels slightly better today, but I don't know, maybe just tablets started to work. No payments from me.
