Those of you familiar with moneysavingexpert.com (I just love Martin!) with probably know of their brilliant forums and some of the challenges which go one there. Back in December I joined on of the challenges on the Mortgage Free Wannabe forum and pledged to pay off £3,000 off our mortgage in 2012.
In hindsight it was a bit ambitious at the time as I was on maternity leave but I have been chipping away at it £100 a month since February and I think it might just be possible to reach the £3k target by December. I'm currently at £600 paid off with a bit in savings allocated for the pesky mortgage. I'll 'do the math' and get a total figure soon.
You can find details of the challenge here. I'm number 71.

Look at it this way...£3K is what you want but any savings are great!
ReplyDeleteI really hope you do well.
I started off on MSE and know what a powerful motivator the forum is.

Thanks Sft. What is a challenge anyway if it isn't challenging!
