Hi,
I am writing Feb off as have done b**ger all really towards the challenge. I have £10.50 validated on quidco and am disputing a further £60 but won't count these until they have cleared. I also have some earnings from extra job £21.63 which I am adding.
Well done everyone .. you're doing better than meJUST DO IT ONE BRICK AT A TIMEPROUD TO BE DEALING WITH MY DEBTSWeekly Budget: groceries£50/petrol£50/Unnecesary£15DEBT PAID = 58% (£4,212/£8216):T0 -
Sorry you're not feeling good about the challenge today jet, hopefully ull feel better about it by the end of march.
But you've still managed quite a lot extra on top of your normal income towards the challenge so far so don't be too disheartened
The woman who took the underskirt is definately wanting it, so thats another £10 cash to add towards my stash on Thursday
Apart from that I have nothing else to update. Oh, we're doing a car boot on 16th March, let's hope for some better weather this time....:rotfl:

I've finally been through and sorted an OC spreadsheet for this challenge - haven't done great so far :rolleyes: - £135.17 but as people say if I didn't do this challenge I probably wouldn't have the money and certainly wouldn't have it stored away (trying to get some savings together as I'm debt free other than student loan and mortgage - so a lot of debt but you know what I mean)
Have got some money from lightspeed and quidco on the way so that's another £15 or so and really need to get ebaying - have set myself a challenge of £100 by the end of March and will get some things ready for this weekend.
Hoping March is my month for getting really into it and back on trackInitial Mortgage January 2024 - £160,000
Initial Mortgage free date - January 2058
Mortgage as of 1st February 2024 - £159,134.98
Overpayments to date - £79.62
