    Hi, I am upto just over £60 now, most of this through quidco. I am gonna spend tomorrowevening listing things on ebay and weather permitting I will be doing a carboot sale next Sunday. I really need to get rid of my credit card asap so I am hoping that this thread and challenge will inspire me to do so. Can't believe how well everyone is doing. Keep it up people.

  • Hi to all dezzi's challengers. You're all doing brilliantly so far:beer:

    I'll be reporting once a week on my success or otherwise:confused: but am interested to know what you guys are doing about 'counting' the money towards your targets.

    Are you counting it in as soon as it is tracked/validated etc from sites like Quidco, or are you waiting until you actually have it in your possession? I'm raising cash to pay off debts but can't pay them until I actually have the cash available to pay them with IYKWIM. Also, it's accruing nicely in some places but there isn't enough there yet for a payout.

    I'm tempted to count mine when I have it in my bank account, but that's a bit depressing as a lot of it may not get paid to me for months:eek:, definitely well after the challenge is finished.

    Just thought I'd check with you all.
    Keep at it:T

    Hi :)

    I'm waiting til it hits my bank accoutn and I have the actual cash - but I've not got things tracking in quidco etc so I can access the money a little quicker.
    Not sure what others are doing.
