Hi Muppets

Please could I join the challenge? I haven't done this one before but I am on my last credit card to pay off and it could be just the motivation I need to be debt free by the end of the year!

My current debt is £3958.36 to pay off

Thank you! : )

£55 paid it's a start. People selling on eBay how do you dour? I listed some lovely nearly new clothes people wanted to pay buttons for them it really wasn't worth selling them.

I am the same. Never see the point as only sell bits for silly amounts.


Would be good to get other peoples ideas for selling.

Muppet I have finally done my total! I can't believe how much it is. Its now the ground total of £21,321. I can't believe how much it is now.
I'm definitely going to work hard this year to clear it but know I will still be here next year!!

Honestly I couldn't tell you. I put loads of different stuff on and it's usually the things I think are "rubbish" are the ones that sell.

The way I look at it is even if it goes for 99p, it's better in my pocket than being thrown into the bin or a 2nd hand shop bag.

I was given this cheap Christmas brooch as part of a Secret Santa gift and I stuck that on, I'm also trying to sell some Winnie the Pooh items and an expensive brand new Kipling hand bag............ the flippin brooch is now at £6 and the Kipling bag I've been trying to sell for months now and still can't sell it:eek:

I always start my items at 99p, and let them go from there.

But you're right, people want things for nothing these days:mad:
Currently I have 3 items on buy it now, worth far more than what I have them listed at, one I have on at £10 and someone keeps sending me an offer of £1:eek: They haven't taken the hint that I ain't selling it for that price:rotfl: It came all the way from America and can't be gotten here so tough lol

Hi, can I please join this?

I am ashamed to say our non-mortgage debt exceeds £25,000 but I would like to set a challenge of £10,000 by xmas between repayments and overpayments.

Thanks

Hi Muppets,
Please could you put me down for £7000 again for this years challenge? I was a little short last year, but hope to crack it this year, and fingers crossed even a little more!

Happy New Year all, let's hope 2017 is a debt busting spectacular!
