    Rampant Recycler Debt-free and Proud!

    I have a mini celebration today too - i have just cleared the CC that was creeping upwards so that makes me debt free again :D
    Well done FC - glad to know you still doing so well :)
    Why not have a go at the double money challenge?
    I haven't used EB and after reading other comments on here don't feel inclined to start. I used to do car-boots when I lived in England, buying stuff at jumbles and boxes under the table at auction and then sorting, cleaning, mending etc to sell. Where I live now it just wouldn't work on both sides - buying or selling - just the wrong area (I know from running a charity shop for two years here).


    Think I might start having a go with the bubble company though for the next month's 'project', now I have a little steady job and the apartment is nearing the end of it's make-over, I should have a bit of time to spare.


    Made just £ 2.25 on surveys today so need to get a shove on over the week-end.


    Hope you all have a super Saturday

    I've so lost my mojo - i have had a terrible bout of flu and my arms are so tired i can hardly even type :(

    I am going to set my little goal for today as maxing the searches on inbox pounds and try to do a bubble - can't think what to write today though! Good Luck all xxx

    Oh meant to say thanks for all the congrats msgs re debt freedom again - i just saw my CC balance going up and up and thought time to reign that in again before it spirals. It does seem very easy to lose focus and let old habits creep back in, but thankfully my finance alarm goes off now a hell of a lot sooner than it did before ;)

    Hope you are feeling better soon Fairy, flaming horrible when you feel all achey like that.

    Just caught up with 10 pages and WOW!!! Really exciting to read about everyone's positive progress. Mav, mortgage free & I bet you are on cloud 9. Huge commitment with the overpayments but it is all worth it now!! Hope all goes well with your new venture Emmaglet & wd to you and fairy with ridding those debts! :D:D:D

    So, you are inspriring me to get off my butt and get focused again. :rotfl:

    Just adding £15 ebay profit, £3 shy forest people & got £9 pending on quidco but won't add that until it lands in my account.

    Right, off to carry on with operation declutter and get an ebay and car boot pile going. I seem to be perminantly decluttering, but never seem to get to the zen like "it is done" moment as somehow stuff seems to come in as fast as it goes out!! Anyhow, have a good weekend & hope its productive.
