    Can I join this month with £15 per day.
    I've got 2 weeks of annual leave coming up and I'm going to hammer the over time and ebay - need to restart my countdown to being debt free.
    Starting off with £20 Amazon voucher received today for a survey I did ages ago.

    Hello, I'm kicking off July with £95.86 for an additional £49 I paid into the bank today from cash I'd been keeping in coins and notes for my float at 2 recent car boots.

    The rest of the £95 after this £49 comes from bits and bobs I haven't counted in June but could or should have -- interest on Santander/lloyds Vantage, Nectar points taken off shopping, Top Cashback, and sponsor money I had noted down and have just added up total for June and seen I have under stated on here.

    I have an old fiver finishing on eBay this week, strangely fascinated by this -- it's currently at £5.50 -- would have been a good investment to save some on purpose :)

    Have a great July everyone xx

    Hello, NUMBER 36
    Not sure if this counts but returned unneeded (but very much wanted) clothes to Next = £52 and underwear returned to Asda = £14.
    Also Switched from Cigarettes to Baccy so £4.20 saved today there.
    Will be listing stuff on ebay this week.
    Have about a dozen bin bags of clothes/shoes in the loft which I was going to weigh in, but not done it before so a tad nervous about taking them.

    Total today=£68.20
    Barclaycard=£4200/ Next=£0.00/Lloyds overdraft= £1000/Santander overdraft= £550
    TOTAL DEBT = £13750:eek:as of November 2012
    TOTAL DEBT = £11620 as of March 2013
    TOTAL DEBT = £5750 as of January 2016:T

    Just checked bank accounts and received a couple of refunds I've been waiting for :) one for £117 and the other for £36.98.

    That makes July's total £174.37 already!!

    Not going to change my target, just going to see how much I can make!
