    Hi all,
    This has been such an inspirational thread and have been following with interest...finally got myself organised now I'm on leave from work and am ready to attack the credit card. I've got a few targets but think I want to focus on this one first. I'm no. 51 on the list, and it's a debt of £2,900, so I'm looking at £29 for my 1%. Off to re-list some stuff on ebay to get me started...
  • i have some scrap gold/silver and some with stones in anyone know of somewhere that takes all of these items? many thanks x

    Sold an old pc screen on ebay made 10 on it not counting fees so its a start got a guitar im thinking of listing but it was a gift from some one at worknas i said i wante to learn would feel bad selling that
  • 1% earned today from transferring my £5 Halifax reward into my Uni funds, this is probably the most painless 1% earned so far, I'm not really sure what I've been doing with my £5 rewards previously so obviously I wouldn't miss them if they're moved to my savings!
