    I don't think its going to get any easier going forward Taxi, the way everything is going up in price.
    CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera. You can enjoy it even if you don't understand it and too much can give you a headache the next day J

  • Good morning everyone.

    Nothing new to update at the moment.

    I'm doing well at this month's £10 a day challenge, but exceedingly badly at ebay challenge. Still, 5p listing on Thursday, so that might inspire me to stop faffing and get it sold!

    How's everyone else doing?

    Have a good day everyone.

    Polly, I'm finding ebay to be unbelievably slow lately, I listed loads of items a few weeks ago and hardly anything sold.

    However, saying that, I have just checked and one item I listed has sold for £28, wahey!
    Debt free in 2010 :beer:
    £6551.35 paid so far.

    This WILL be my debt free year! :T
