    Hi there.  I'd like to keep my number from 2020.  #57

    Unfortunately thanks to covid I was unable to clear my debt.  I'm happy that was able to pay off half of my debt though :) SO this year I want to clear the other half.  So in total I need to pay £2,000.

    So my starting post on here will be

    #57 - £0.00/£2,000

    P.S  can anyone tell me how I get my writing bigger??  I'm still getting used to this new layout

    Hi! #4 from last year’s thread! Please could I make my target for this year £7000. No doubt it will change as it did last year but it should be the end of it very soon! Thanks again muppets.

    Hi Muppets,

    Thank you for running this challenge, it is so motivating to see everyone chipping away at their debts and people becoming debt free.
