    £0.50 - DS1 selling leftover halloween sweets at school.
    £411.00 - winnings!!! (it's really killing me to have to give this up to HSBC - sob, am really tempted just to stick to £120 per month payments and have it paid off in a year but I have knocked it off my balance, nonetheless!

    Floozie, congrats and you have some real will power and discipline going on there !
    Just checked quidco and there is a £15 cashback for the compant formerly known as Littlewoods pools, quite tempted by your success.....

    I don't do lotto every week, but have done it for a lot of years every few weeks and have never won owt. Even on works bonus ball I have won 3 times in 3.5 years while some people seem to win every other week. I'll probably never have a pools win again now. I won £20 on my first week, £411 on my third, must be beginners luck

    While im here can anyone tell me can i use Nectar points in an actual shop ie sainsburys or can i only spend them getting money off things like hotels and spa breaks as seen on their website?

    Hi Smamfer. You can redeem your points at Argos too. 500 points is worth £2.50. I have used mine as part payment for xmas prezzies last year. Will be doing the same again this year!

    Thanks Fag_Ash_Lil for your tip on getting a Paypal Top Up card. I clicked the link, thought a good idea especially the instant cash. As I'm using all my proceeds towards my debts am not sure whether it may be good for me?? You use them whereever you see the VISA sign. Not sure if my creditors would accept this!

    Didn't get chance to post yesterday but put £10 in the pot. This is partly what I received for washing the footie kit from DH team.All helps ....

    Have just paid 5.78 towards VIRGIN via internet banking today

    Just caught up on all the posts since yesterday and have to say its great to read how well you are all doing. I think it keeps me going...... knowing how supportive we all are to each other
    Welcome to all the newbies. Good luck with clearing your debts quickly:T
