I'll be using the following to increase my chances of reaching my target:
EBay
Quidco - alreading awaiting a payment of £1.16 with another £20 soon to follow
Any money saving vouchers - the difference or saving will go in the pot
I do some crafty stuff which I'm hoping to sell
Eggs from my chickens
And looking at ways to sell any gluts of fruit and veg I may get this year from the garden
Any money we "come into" will be put towards it as well
Anything coming in will go into saving and a percentage will go into the debt in my siggy as it's 0% interest. Once cleared anything else will go into the ISA
Either way I WILL finally clear this debtCabot (0%) left to pay £2455 let the overpayments commence!0 -
