Have just added up my total and I am now on £3180 thanks to freelance work. Off on holiday now for a couple of weeks so shall be taking a break from the challenge and once school starts back I won't be able to do as much so I have been making the best of it.
Had an emergency crop up last week and thanks to the last olympic challenge I was able to throw money at it without worrying about dipping into my mortgage fund so I have to say the challenge totally serves a real purpose in my life and yet another reason I adore MSEDEBT FREE AND LOVING LIFE0 -

My Tesco vouchers came through - on a shop of £50-£60 a month nowadays, I got £16 of vouchers, because of various voucher offers on here. They're definitely part of my Olympic Challenge, as I'd never have got that much without the site, plus I'm gong to use them for deals, not shopping - how do I count them? Do I count the face value or what they're worth on deals? Thats £16 or £64!!! Either way, I'm chuffed.2023: the year I get to buy a car0
