Clear a debt by April challenge
Comments

Think I've overspent a bit this month getting ready for Christmas (even though I'd bought most of the stuff already). So not sure I'll meet my december Target now, but expecting to do a lot better for January target.0

I don't think I'll meet my december target either Sui, all my spare pennies have been put towards xmas.
Will work really hard to overpay as much as possible in January, plus thats when I'll get the majority of my quidco earnings which will be a huge chunk off the total :j
I'm having a nsd today, good little me
Although I will be spending a little extra t'moro as I have to go to the hospital for a growth scan and will be forking out for a taxi there and back £10, I would walk but as I'm now 36 weeks cheggers, I think I'm entitled to a taxi

I've used up all my tesco clubcard vouchers and emptied my penny pot for shopping. managed to get a whole months shopping for £18.62 so thats £50 of my shopping budget to go towards mine. Also claimed for mileage at work so expecting another £60. £28 from ebay sales so down from £1670 to £1520 approximate - I'm expecting a statement with this months interest yet!0

Paid £25 to Dotty P's and £38 to Next. These were just regular payments, slightly more than minimum but will throw more at it xmas permitting!
Feels good to be on the way at last!!!I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....(it's part of my charm!)0 -
Won £30 on one of the free Bingo sites yippeeee
Plus looks like I'm getting £50 from Quidco so should help with any christmas excesses0 -
Well done everyone! I'm quite impressed with all the free money you guys are finding to throw at the debt.
I paid £300 from my wages/photography/discount on rent (lent landlord £50 last month), off my horrid little card, which I have now named "Satans Card"....
Hopefully toward the end of the month I'll have some spare pots of money so will collect all that back up together and pay off another chunk.
I was aiming for a cracking £544 off it this month, but think I was overly enthusiastic and failed to ackowledge the need to live as well as pay it off, but we shall see, still quite chuffed to have managed £300 so far!Wealth is not measured by currency0 -
Gosh you all doing better than me although i have earned1800 points from cashinco and 250 from pigsbaack.£5 on lunches this week.every little helps.Make £11,000 in 2011 / ebay £6000
