1% challenge 2023

craftingmad

Good morning.

I am currently tidying and organising our bedroom and come across £10 under the bed so I have paid that into the OP savings account along with my earnings from the chippy this week so am declaring a further £91.50 towards my debt  

My total now stands at £12708.61/ £81700 = 15.55% 

Its slow progress but progress is still progress in my eyes so I shall keep plodding away

Me again - sorry.

I've just got paid my Etsy earnings for April so have added a further £145.46 into the OP savings pot.

My total now stands at £12854.07 / £81700 = 15.73% 

Creeping up slowly but surely

Afternoon - guess who  

A quick check in from me to declare another £11.10 towards my total for a cheque received from Royal Mail for a lost parcel.

My total is now £12865.17 / £81700 = 15.74%

Slowly edging closer to my next percentage

Hi everyone.
I joined the beginning of the year with a 1% of around £660. It was difficult but I have been plodding along paying a debt at a time (Paid off a total of £6500 so far)
My next debt is £13,031 and I am being ambtious and want it gone by the end of September.

Can I rejoin please with a 1% of £130.31. I have just returned from holidays with £1257.30 spending money left which I have put straight towards it.

1257.30/£13,031 (9.64%)

Thank you in advance

That's an amazing amount to have paid off in such a short space of time so well done.
I have every confidence that you will meet your next target. Good luck.
Do you have any plans on how you are going to find the money to do it? Any inspiration would be gratefully received

Hi everyone - you are all doing so well so congratulations and really well done.

I'm just popping in to declare a further £56 added to my OP savings pot today made up of £46 from my chippy job and £10 from Airtime rewards (still loving this as, other than cashing out, I don't have to do anything extra to earn the money).

This brings my total now to £13123.43/ £81700 = 16.06%

Finally I have reached 16% and 17% is now in my sights - fingers crossed it won't take me long to reach it but I have a horrible feeling it may be a while given our finances at the moment.
