  • Haven't popped on here for a while but I would like to update the fact I have put just over £36 into a pot for my od and also been chipping away at my cc ( statement due any day now)
    So proud of myself and I haven't been really pushing myself as conscious, it's still a long way until pay day!!
    If I can pay the same again by the end of the month, I will be estactic ☺☺

    Morning all

    I'm doing extra work and will be manking an extra payment at the end of the month. So frustrating when it's one off payment but should be a decent amount so here's hoping.

    Keep going everyone.
    Debt - CCV £3792
    CCB £1383 (took a hit for a holiday)

    Loan 1 £1787
    Loan 2 £1683
    Total £8601 Was £39302
  • I've actually managed to pay £60 extra towards the dreaded CC :j

    I've sold a couple of things on Eb@y so when all the fees have been taken off I will put it towards this challenge.

    It's going quite slow for me at the moment but unless I win the lottery or rob a bank, I can't see it picking up speed any time soon :o

    Happy weekend guys x
    new challenge?

  • Extra £80 paid off yay!!

  • It seems i miscalculated the debt i owed to one of my family members, so rather than the £2200 i thought i owed altogether i actually owe £2800. Little bit of a set back, but i still aim to have the debt paid off before the end of the year.

    I should be able to chip away at it more this month also when expenses are paid back to me

    Total currently stands at £484.35
    Mortgage Feb 2023- £249,210 MFW 2023 #20: £524.05/£500 (104.81%)
  • Afternoon all. I will be posting at the end of the month how I am doing with regards to the challenge as that is when I will be trotting everything up, but just wanted to post to keep going I suppose, take care all xxxx
    Jan 2025 £26561.43/£0. I want to clear £9000 this year (2025)
