Feel stuck

Excellent the more the merrier we can keep each other going.

Brilliant idea with the sandwiches. I have no excuse really to be honest and I could quite easily make them at the same time as I do my daughters dinner or ours and stick them in the fridge.

Might be trying out that sandwiches in freezer bag idea.... does anything freeze in it?

My flatmate might think ive lost the plot... but hey ho!
I've written out all ym budgetting now, so I should be sticking to it. Only thorn in my side will be my internet access... as I have to use flatmates comp since I think we're gonna need wireless..... im such a techno-idiot!

Cant wait for payday now, and get started!!

I don't have one debt totalling that, but can I aim for paying £1,500 off my debt?

maybe we should set up daily reminders on computers or on mobile phone alarms for the typical time we're making dinners/could make our sandwiches so we dont forgot to do them..

i.e if you typically make dinner for the family at 7pm, have a reminder go off at 7:10 which says sandwiches for tomorrow!

I have only put in cold meat, I shouldn't think lettuce etc would fair too well. I am not very imaginative when it comes to sarnies. My favourite (and easy) lunch is those 2 minute in microwave rice packets, obviously you need a microwave at work :rolleyes:. They cost just over a £1 each and really fill you up plus lots of flavours available now, mine is mushroom.

ah haaaaaa, and even better idea... never heard of these pouches, feel like Im living in convenience food black hole!!!

I've got a microwave at work, so in all honesty I have really got no excuses! Which is what drives me potty!

Hey everyone,

Am totally up for the challenge, will be very hard but even if I do only half it's more than doing no challenge at all.

I would love to clear my hubby's Vanquis card which currently stands at £1005, this is the highest APR.

I'm doing a few challenges come the new year, it would be nice to complete all of them.

Why don't you start a 'Doodledo's Clear A Debt by 1st April 08 Challenge' thread, like snaggles says, others can get inspiration from it and I prefer to read threads like that rather than emails, or is that just me being fussy.

Look forward to the challenge

Hi everyone,

I think I need to join you in the making lunch thing, when I was a DFW I would religously make sandwiches every night for the next day and if I failed to do that it was soft cheese on ryvita (bit of punishment!) Recently I have been going back to the sandwich bar, and although I am no longer in debt I really don't want to start wasting my money when I know I can make just the same food for a fraction of the cost.
If you have a microwave soup is a good idea, it really fills me up, just buy a tin and bring in a slice or 2 of bread (or if you're feeling particularly brave you can make it yourself!).
Good luck with the challenge!
