The 'extra payment every week' challenge

Betty_Crumble

some good ideas there, you can pick and choose how to do it, alternate, do all or find a new way, it really is a free form and if you miss a week thats fine too, this thread is a lovely place to be and no amount is too little, every mickle makes a muckle as they say (aint got a clue what it means like hahaha)
I sometimes round my bill amount up, or bank account down. I sometimes see if theres any left from my wages after doing these and then throw that at something too, i love that its so flexible and i think thats what makes this thread a nice place to be.

Hi Mint yes turning OH upside down to retrieve loose change does count Also I checked old handbags,down side of the sofa, in pockets of coats and jackets I hadn't worn in a while and under seats in the car. Once you get that first extra payment no matter how small its amazing how addictive it gets:) How about saving the 5ps or 10ps in your purse if you can and chipping them off the debt at the end of the week.Good luck
As for me nothing this week absolutely skint from the OD going last week:T But am going to spend the day on Ebay if its not nailed down its going :eek:
Good luck everyone and keep chipping away :T

Well I managed to skim 99p on my new thinking ways and it has made me smile all morning LOL
I have made a virtual Overpayments pot and when it gets to £20 i will use it to pay off debt.

Great work Mint!

£5.68 from me this week, still rounding down my account.

An extra £17.58 overpaid to the credit card today. A mixture of bagged 2p's, money I found in a cupboard and clothes that I weighed in. The best part of all that was that the clothes weren't even mine to begin with (Auntie had a clear out!) and I've taken out everything I think will make more on ebay so there will hopefully be more to come .

ETA: Just updated my signature and realised I've broken the £400 barrier!!!
