  • Hi all also joined the an extra payment a week challenge and made my first weekly extra payment so that brings my grand total upto 229.32. Hoping this thread will give me the motivation to do a bit extra every week even if it is a small amount.

    Caroline, if you click on the 'quote' button, there is some coding around the post you are quoting - QUOTE=caroline504;51255547 (in square brackets) and /QUOTE in square brackets at the end. These are the bits you need to ensure are in there to get it to come up green. If you copy and paste the text it won't happen.

    Hope that helps :) (and doesn't confuse you, I'm not sure it's very clear :rotfl:)[/QUOTE]

    it makes sense and i think i have got it this time. thanks Jwil :)

  • Just popping in to say Hi to all the new challenge joiners here :wave:

    sergeant cookie - thats great posting things like that here - its nice when we all share ideas on how to trim the budgets / raise extra funds and £25 a month is a fab amount to save :T

    I'm hoping for a free listing weekend on eb*y this week to raise extra to chuck at the debts.

    I'm also looking for a new full-time and a new part-time job - only little things then eh? :eek: :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Just for all those who may be curious i've been looking for a new f/t job for a looong time - i have to travel alot for my current job (3 hours round trip) and wage is minimum. Up until recently i also had a p/t job which helped me cover the bills but i no longer do this soi'm looking for 2 jobs! *fingers crossed*
