HI can I rejoin again please? I started late on the last challenge but only have £180 to go from £1003 and hope to have that completed by my last day, the 15th August!
The next debt for me, starting the 16th August, will be to pay off Crap 1 which is currently £995! Hope to have that cleared by 17th November (I think!!!???) but a little part of me hopes I can get it cleared by 31st October!
Ready to start the next one in my neverending list lol
Feel like I've had the stuffing knocked out me a bit and have got a fright, I called my bank to 'topup' my loan but was declined so have been shocked into realising what a mess I'm in and that I really really need to get myself out it asap xxxNSD November 1/20 :money:

Hi Amara would love to aim for £2000 this time.
I have £4000 to raise for when I move to Edinburgh in April next year. I want £2500 to back me up and £1500 for the credit card when the 0% runs out in Oct next year. Any payments off the CC wont count. I cant wait to start. This month I will be moving to shared accomodation so my rent will be cheaper and I'll have more cash to save0 -
Hi all and thanks for the new thread Amara.
I managed to get my Halifax Credit Card down to £800 as part of the last challenge. My new challenge is to pay this £800 and build up a £1000 "moving-out-fund".
New Challenge amount is a cool £1800. (my incentive is to be debt free and back out of my parent's house)Debt now £48,000 in the form of a mortgage0 -
I can't wait to start this challange. I have decided to try and save £2000 for flights for me and OH to go to visit my Dad in March in Australia. I know this is nor very MSE and some of my debts will be delayed being paid off because of it, but I am not taking on any further debt to fund this trip, just my hard earned money.
My Dad had a heart attack last christmas and as he is now nearly 71 he's not getting any younger and he won't be around forever. And I'm really looking forward to it!:j
Please Amara if you feel inclined to do a 100 day challange part VII this could be my spending money in time before I leave lol!:rotfl:DFW Nerd 1394.
Total Debt Paid £38109.29/ £40259.24.0 -
:hello:
Hi again all 100 dayers xxx
Thank you Amara for running the challenge again :kisses:
I am hoping that I am in a better position for this one as I gave some extra overtime due next month and also have got some election canvassing coming up (fingers still crossed but think it's a definite) but also have car insurance up for renewal in October so most of that may get swallowed(or more than likely all of it and more
:()
So what I want to do is get rid of the £200 from last challenge and there is another £545 that I need to clear another card with so put me down for £750 please.
Thanks again xx

Can I join please? I want to clear our overdraft of around £2500. This is our only debt other than mortgage, It's been accrued over last few months due to overspending on some house renovations and drop in income - tax increase for DH due to being put on wrong tax code last year. We do have some savings so have been toying with the idea of using these to clear it but we would need to give notice to access them and I just keep putting it off as I worry that if we touch them, we may end up frittering them away.
We don't have any spare money in the budget at the moment so it has to be cleared with extra income. I will be upping me ebaying, surveys etc. Also have some money in quidco waiting to be confirmed. I have a carboot sale planned for the weekend so that should help too. I will save any extra money coming in and pay it off in chunks at the end of each month otherwise it small payments seem to disappear into the overdraft abyss.
£25 per day, here I come!!0
