Oh my word I'm so happy for you! I think may is the month I get debt free and I really cannot wait! Can't imagine how you must be feeling.

Emma This is fantastic well done you.Think May is going to be a great month for all of us (fingers crossed)

Thanks everyone for your kind words and thank you for all the encouragement and inspiration.I would not be where I am now if I had never found myself on MSE and these challenges.:T

Keep making money everyone and the last few days to really push those totals (sound like a personal trainer ) Which reminds me that is my reward for finishing the Mortgage Personal trainer once a week:rotfl:Most peoples idea of hell I love it

Amazing News Mavvs you have worked like a trogen on paying off that mortgage so it is well deserved! Have you a plan for what to do next?

I have a mini celebration today too - i have just cleared the CC that was creeping upwards so that makes me debt free again

Oh and double money challenge - pair of shoes i bought for £3 just sold for £10

Fairy Thats a big celebration :T Well done you and so quickly paid off Well done on the double your money item great profit

Have no plans really just to carry on with the lessons I have learnt here and to try and save some money.I have a pretty nice life anyway and I am happy so I think old habits will die hard as they say.

Only 2.5 years ago I had 21 unopened bank statements stuffed in a drawer.Card declined at the petrol station and DH couldn't get home.And the worst bit I had no money to buy the food for my dear mums funeral
So found myself on this forum and the rest is history I will have paid off the Mortgage over 7 years :eek: 3 years early as I refused to take it over any longer than 10 years and we had a good deposit after selling another house.
So I must have had some idea about money :rotfl:Think it may have been buried in the sand with my head :rotfl::rotfl:


Well done to all

I'm in such a good mood reading all this!

Business first - the May thread is HERE because I'm going away tomorrow for a few days. It's going to be so expensive - Mr Emma is a best man for a wedding tomorrow and didn't tell me til a few weeks ago that the wedding venue has accommodation. So because he left it so late, there's only twin rooms available and they're £90. Ouch. Then of course travel, wedding gift and then we decided since we're half way to Chester, we'd go check on my house/tenants up there and give out some Save The Date cards for our wedding. So hotel, eating meals out and fuel is going to be so expensive. I'm taking my laptop so I can do some writing whilst I'm away, hopefully that helps.

I'm waiting for one eBay buyer to pay then I've got two items to parcel and I'll be able to add my eBay earnings.

I uploaded a video to YouTube - I still can't sort the audio sync issues so I did one about Bubblews. It's had 9 views and I'm really proud of that, haha.

Anyway, I'll be back later to declare my total. I'll still be around but no money making efforts.

Once again, May thread is here

£1,25 saved in fuel and £15 from my dad for my birthday.


Trying to sell items on facebook but the selling sites have just died. think its going to be a car boot job or the dreaded ebay!

nat21luv

£3 pinecone payment to add.


Ive found a few cheap items in Tesco lately but wont be able to sell them on unless I do a car boot, weathers not looking great so might leave it until next week. I don't think ive got enough to justify a car boot so I better get hoarding

£10 egg sales. Thanks girls but can number 2 witch of eastwick get off the bird table as those peanuts are not for you (yes my 3 black chooks are called the Witches of Eastwick as they are so naughty and almost cackle at you if you tell them off )

Such a fabulous achievement, well done mav good luck with May being your month to become debt free emma, I stayed at a hotel near Manchester for a wedding with my daughters a few months back and it was far too expensive then when we got there they had messed up our booking and wanted me to sleep on an air bed, I should have been cross but I couldn't stop laughing.

I've added £3.59 from Santander 123 account and £3 Pinecone payment. I still have some payments pending but whether or not they will actually show up before the month is out is anyone's guess. Just added £35 from a ms that has been paid today.

Good luck all for the final sprint into May
