    Not been around much, last week was filled with highs and lows, last Friday, we accepted an offer on our house, which was fab after only 3 weeks on the market. Everything seemed to be good until I went for my interview on Wednesday which didn't go very well, I felt awful afterwards, when I got home from work I got a call from my solicitor to say the couple buying our house had a problem with their mortgage, and basically it had fallen through, though they are trying to get something sorted, so fingers crossed they will get it sorted out soon! On Friday I got good news, I got my promotion, so I will be increasing my hours and getting a wage increase, which means I will get around an extra £500 in my hand per month, so feeling a little bit brighter but still down about the house.
    Sorry for blethering on a bit, here are my totals for this month so far, like I say I've been busy so not had much time...
    Shop and Scan - £3
    Quidco - £9.42
    Pigsback - £1.80
    Lightspeed - £1
    Pinecone - £4
    Carboot - £23.20
    Total - £42.42
  • Just got a quid added to my simply bingo account by doing an emailed survey so will add this.
