    Well done Emily, thats brilliant news. What did you have to do to win?

    I've not been online for a few days, so to catch up with this challenge just put £3 in my pig to cover Tuesday - Thursday, so i so far have £4 in my piggy, but should be upto £7 on Sunday then i can pay it off my Littlewoods debt.

    Thanks everyone.

    I won the money on Power FM (local station). I basically had to name as many fizzy drinks as I could in 10 seconds. The maximum you could get was 8 and I got 7. They paid £50 per answer so I got £350 :D .

    I get so nervous going on the radio but always seem to hold my nerve when it counts. My friend and I always win quite a bit off the radio, whilst we are bored at work ;) .

    well I haven't made a payment the last couple of days, bad girl I know...:o

    Things have been a bit difficult at home and this totally slipped my mind. How, I don't know!! :D

    Anyway, I have made a payment now of £2, all I could afford, so its coming down!

    I'm going to have to try and put some money in a tin aswell for my savings as I'm going to need it soon, so will start that tomorrow.

    One good thing though, went to twycross zoo today, and got charged less than i should have in the shop (didn't realise till i got home :j ) anyway, i shall put the difference into my savings pot, all £1.25 of it!! :D
