I love this challenge:T. only discovered it in the past month and keep forgetting to post but i managed to overpay £86.23 last month!
The debt has been really getting me down in the past few weeks. But i have climbed out of my pit of despair and am back on board now and will try to post every week. It is all on 0% for between 24-30 months the first one needing to be paid by Feb 2015 which i think is achievable . I am just concentrating on that one to start with.0 -
won a little at bingo today, paid it straight off the cc as what I didn't have in the morning, I won't miss, and added a tenner of my 'own' money, prob will miss that before Thursday but couldn't resist!Credit card €7892.36/€ 0

My specialist has reduced my medication to every other day so my prescription now lasts 2 months instead of one, before starting this challenge i wouldn't have even thought about it!0 -
