Shed the last few pounds

Options
hi all, pretty new to the forum and just wanted some advice or just a litle encouragement. I have recently paid off just over 3.5ks worth of debt that was residing on my credit card by selling an old laptop, few other electrical items and bits on ebay, however now i have bled my valued items dry and have nothing more to sell im still looking at pp. 3k loan still outstanding that I would love to get rid of. I own a pretty expensive car and my only resort to clear this atm is by selling it, however i am concerned that this is false economy as the car is still warrantied and is only costing me in petrol and tyres and insurance. I require a car and would only need to buy a cheaper one that could potentially go wrong more.... I would appreciate any guidance on how i get rid of these last few pounds.

Thank you

  • If you post a SOA (link at the top of the forum) then people will be able to advise you on any savings you can make. I tend to agree about the car, and I'd look for other areas of saving first.
