    So far between us in this challenge we have paid off over a quarter of a million pounds!!! £267k to be precise. Collectively we could have bought a reasonably sized property!

    Holiday home collective anyone? :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    LOL I beat you to that realisation two days ago on page 164!!! It's fantastic isn't it - and just think when we've finished paying back, we could be saving that amount - now that would be really great. :money:

    Bloomin' hell! Had a massive BBQ yesterday, it was pretty good! :) But my friend's husband went upstairs to use the loo and went flying, I forgot to show him how to use the light and also there's a weird a step at the top of the stairs and he tripped over it and hurt his foot:rotfl: I don't think I like this house if it's injuring people!!!!

    Also come to the realisation that for our 'dream house' (affordable!) we would be looking at over £150k really. Eek, best get saving...

    You remember I mentioned a while ago that I am running out of things to sell on ebay... well I have just listed another 48 items. It is never ending.

    I want to pay off the debt I am currently working on by the end of May rather than the end of June. I need to earn £254 extra this month if I am going to do that!

    I have £70 pending with Quidco and £73 pending with TCB so if they are both paid this month then I may make it!

    I have 5 items ending this evening so hopefully I will be back later to update that I have paid some :D

    Nice one 32b3!!! :D

    It's mad that it's a;most June. I remember talking to my friend in December about how I wanted to clear certain debts this year. And we are almost there, sort of!!! So I think since 6 months has almost flown by, 2 years must be a piece of cake right?!
