Have only half heartedly attempted any challenges so far, so this will be good for me.The man who removes a mountain begins by carrying away small stones. - Chinese Proverb

Proud to be dealing with my debts
April Grocery Challenge: £250 :rolleyes:0 -
I'm always on this board getting tips etc. but rarely post and I've never done a challenge before so here goes!
My smallest debt is £168.72 on a House of Fraser store card. I have been paying the minimum amount on this around £6.88 a month with interest being added each month of £3.65 - mad I know. So I would love to get rid of this. I've just had my statement through this morning and would love to clear it by next month!
Sorry I am not clearing as much as everyone else, but as its my first challenge I thought I'd start small and see how it goes. I have some stuff I can sell on ebay and I will try and think of other ways I can make a bit of cash.
Thanks for letting me join in!
