    Thanks

    Play the 70 ball games cookinmummy - its not worth putting any in for the £5 odd winnings on the 90 ball games

    If you win you just need to deposit enough to make £30 withdrawl limit and then withdraw the lot so you loose nothing

    Got a bid for £15 on something I listed yesterday on ebay - and it is a collect so it will be pretty much all profit - and there are a few watchers and 5 days to go! Won't count it yet but makes me feel a bit better!

    Sorted loads of books and CDs into two piles - Amazon and Ebay. Put all of one pile on Amazon (hope I got the right pile.....:0).

    Update to total mostly through cheque for money that I was owed and forgot to claim - still getting there - slowly!

    At work hee hee so I'd better be quick
    brought packed lunch (save £3) then at lunch time I'm going to home bargains so that should save me some money too. Its a slow long haul trying to save £5 a day. How you stalwarts do it i dont know you are all brilliant :T

    and guess what ?...... its NOT raining ... yet! x

    Don't worry sistercas - you'll surprise yourself! Surveys and quidco etc can be slow burners and take a wee while to pay out - but you will eventually reap the benefits.

    Absolutely miserable here - tipping it! :rolleyes:

    Well, this month is my first challenge and it is going very steadily...not sold anything on ebay for a couple of days or so but I have a few watchers so fingers crossed that they are going to bid. We're about a third of the way through the month and I'm behind target so if anyone has any ideas how I can pull it back so that I can achieve my objective It would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
    Finances are looking very desperate this month too-it's an up hill struggle for me just now.

    Well made 99p on fleabay yesterday - not a lot but the buyer has proved beneficial to me as she has put me in touch with a supplier of glass votives:j

    I have a bid on one item for £5.50 with 2 watchers and the item still has 5 days to go.

    Oh and I made 10p in piggy points today too.
