    Thinking of you noggin :grouphug:

    On the moneymaking front today had just over £12 from an ebay sale. Due to the strikes yesterday we didn't get our paycheques today so I don't know what money in my account is overtime, doh! So that'll have to wait till tomorrow :rolleyes:

    I've been paid for bview reviews, I had to do 20 reviews. If anyone wants to join via me (you can join direct) I would get £10 in vouchers and you would still get your £10. Don't know if it is breaking the rules to mention that on this board.

    Back to topic. I've got £3.50 in Tesco vouchers - disappointing but reflects the fact I've been shopping more at Asda which for what I buy feels up to a third cheaper - particularly on fruit and veg. So I've been telling myself that I have been saving at source. Another £6.73 tracked on quidco.

    I now have a whole 220 ipoints:rotfl:

    In theory I have just won a £3750 holiday through a prize draw (otherwise known as a marketing survey). :j Seasons - they have sent me a letter which is positive - but want me to phone them - left a message and they haven't rung me back. I think it is an all inclusive to Cancun. I'll let you know whether there are any deal breaker Ts and Cs and whether it materialises in practice. Here's hoping.... It's hard to become an optimist overnight.:rolleyes:

    Hi saving holmes

    I've had one of these letters as well, sent recorded delivery and everything. If you check their website, they are a timeshare company. So as long as you can sit through a long presentation and resist a hard sell, go for it! See you on the beach :-)

    Well I complained to Abbey a week or two ago as I couldn't transfer money out of my ISA to my bank account in time for my new mortgage. I didn't do it to make money but they have sent me £15 :j so I am adding that to my £10 a day score.
