    Surveys - 21 = done 6 today
    Sort some books out other than Ebay
    Put only new things on Ebay
    Look at reopening old survey sites

    If I write it down on here I have to do it

    hope everyone has a good Monday

    Happy Wednesday

    Good morning!!!

    My total for this month so far is £20, I am going to list another item for sale on Facebook this morning and post 2 items on eBay! As my eBay account is new (ish) I am restricted to posting 5 items a month which is a complete pain but once i get a few more positive feedbacks i'd imagine it will accept my request to increase my selling limit!

    Today is also a no spend day for me today and a non smoking day, this will be my first NSD this month!

    On a side note, I found a £10 note tucked in my wallet that I must have forgotten about, it's going in my sealed pot as i won't miss it as i didn't even know it was in my wallet in the first place!!

    I hope everyone has a good day!!

  • Morning all! I had a measly £1 sale on FB yesterday but I am looking at it as part of the grand decluttering!!! Much more importantly I faced my demons and phoned capital one to see what I owe (I'm locked out of my online account and cut up my card lol) it was actually about half of what I was expecting which is good news, even better is that I changed back to paper statements so I can actually make myself tackle this debt head on...
    I had a plan for the year to combine 3 challenges that would pay off what I thought I owed they were the penny a day, pound a week and sell £3~ a day. So far I have kept up with all these so I am going to keep going but hopefully by my end date of New Years I will not just pay off the C1 but anything left on my overdraft and my OH's what was Egg card. That would really be something! We would then start the new year 3 CC less between us and no overdrafts...

    Another £7.50 tips to add for me for yesterdays tips.

    Felt like I was dragging myself through mud all day with no energy whatsoever. Dont think I am coming down with anything....................but am a lady approaching a certain age with all the problems that come with that. Need to find a way to keep my energy levels up without going down the energy drink route. Have started taking iron again so hopefully will feel more up beat soon.

    Couple of days off now.

    Have a good day all!

    Honestly the only way I have found that works for me. I have tried and failed to do the grand gestures too many times! I have assigned different challenges to each debt this one was smaller so I used the smaller challenges. I have a much bigger barclaycard debt and I use bigger incomes for overpaying that each month - my matched betting, the rise I got at work, the money that comes in from our film business etc. Any cost I manage to save, like reducing bills, I add to the DD for that account too.... That's the plan anyway and so far it seems to be working for me :D

    The picnic table got picked up so now on 200.

    I've been picking up lots of points on Bounts (thank youKantankerous mare for the referral) and I ended up joining as a premium member. It does make you walk a lot more than you had planned to do and I will soon cash out for a voucher.
    Trying to keep in budget.
