Made my second payment to this challenge just now, I was given a £2.95 refund from Asda for postage so have paid £3 off my overdraft (have to round up!). I will also be due another refund from asda of £9 in a few days so that will be my payment for next week when it comes through!Nov NSD: 8/7 Dec NSD: 1/10Sealed pot member #1443 2011: £106. 2012: £171Ninjakat challenge: Aim to clear two debts by April 2013100 day challenge: No toiletries or magazines 19/100 (3 x fails

I am going to reinstate 'save the change' on my bank account and have a quick budget update with rounded up figures, should generate some extra and make it easier to make the payment.
Well done everyone, its great to see more joining in.
I currently pay parking most days and decided today that i am going to risk being 5 mins late every day to have a whizz round the corner where there are no parking restrictions. The chances of there being any spaces by the time I get there are slim but if I don't try I wont know, fingers crossed i'll get lucky a couple of days a month and use the money to make a payment.Littlewoods £10 Very BNPL £234.42
