    Alright,

    I'm going to join this but not actually make the payment until day 100. I do not want to leave my self-short at all, I will be putting this £28 per day into my savings account (£196 per week). So just in case, so I can still use it.

    Holly smokes, I just got told I am getting a tax refund of £1092 from VAT so I will be allocating £500 towards this debt £500/2800.

    That's amazing congrats! :T:T

    I'm sort of expecting something similar in the £2k bracket that will easily clear all of my debt and give me small emergency fund. Should find out for sure in the next 2 weeks.

  • Hi Amara and other challengers :wave:

    I was going to wait for the next challenge, but seeing as there are 59 days left of this challenge, please can I join?

    I've got a debt of £1,492 to clear, which seeing as I would have to pay £25 a day, I doubt I'll clear in time (especially with the big C just around the corner :rudolf:) - but you never know!!

    I've just applied another £60 payment to my sofa finance bringing it to £800. Meaning I've reduced the figure by £100 in two days. Will go in further this month and hopefully pay it off completely - My normal payment of £25 comes out on the 4th. Will be nice to get rid of it and save it! :)
