    I noticed that when you posted it up earlier Lynz.

    Which one has the lowest minimum monthly payment, do you know?

    Hi everyone

    Had a win today - a CSI DVD box set. I can now add that to my Ebay pile which is slowly growing :D .

    Right, before I go round my boyfriend's tonight, I need to:
    • Answer at least 30 questions on AQA.
    • Complete 1 of my £5 surveys.
    Off I go...........:D

    lynzpower - sorry to hear about the headaches etc - I get migraines on a regular basis, just had my eyes tested and they are fine, the doctor thinks they are hormonal and mum thinks once I reach menopause I will stop getting them like her - they are terrible things though.

    I ignored my debt for a long time - head in sand and all that but slowly I have turned things around, now saddled with extra bills from the builders been here for 8 months and still work to do - I really don't want to add to my existing debt when we have worked so hard to get where we are.

    anyway, I am rambling but what I am trying to say (badly) is what a great challenge to get rid of £1k debt in 2 months and I will trying to do my hardest to do the same.

    My first starting point is selling on ebay the clarks kids shoes which are under my bed and were bought for £1 a pair from a closing down sale.

    Just looking at all the mystery shopper site that you all use, was going to join one but it said that you have to register as self employed. Didn't really want to bother doing this and I hope it doesn't sound too noisy but erm has any one else bothered doing this?
