    The engine management light came on on the car on the way home from Mablethorpe yesterday, took it to the garage this morning and it is the lambda sensor so £100 of that has gone back on the credit card so I'm having to backtrack to £54/£460 :( I know I wont meet target now but will just have to keep slogging on!

  • Hi everyone, not posted much this month as I have been going round in circles and had to use my credit cards but hopefully get back on track this month as credit cards have been removed from purse. Have managed another £35 total now paid £137/500. Have some ms shopping money due at the end of the month and listed 25 items on ebay yesterday so fingers crossed will get some more paid off and no more added on to the dreaded credit cards. Have a few to change to 0% so that will help.

    Well done everyone else and thanks amara for keeping this challenge running.

    Another small £11 payment made which takes me to £399 paid/£351 remaining.

    Dont give up everyone, we can do this no matter how small the payments, every little helps us. Think we still have 51 days to go.

    :hello:

    Hi all 100 dayers xx

    :j:jWell done to everyone so far, keep it up :j:j


    Have had a bit of a setback as I had to get my car insurance renewal on cc but that does mean it won't be monthly dd any more so that will give me money I can use extra for debt every month and it is on nil interest for three months on purchase made up to 31st Oct and I will have the second lot of election canvassing money before it's up so I think I can clear it all before the 0% is up :D Also any extra I find during this challenge will be going to this one.

    Managed another £10 today making £677.73 paid off and £322.27 remaining.

    Keep chipping all, everyone is doing so well, and thanks again to Amara for keeping us all here and motivated :)
