  • Got £30 worth of vouchers from Pigsback and Valued Opinions - already updated sig to show this. Oh, and found a £1 coin in Kilmarnock at the weekend!

    Still waiting for a cheque for £120 which was due to be here by today, but as it isn't, I've not included it.
    Almost debt-free, but certainly even with the Banks!

  • Having recently changed energy supplier (as advised by Martin;)), I have received two letters from Southern Electric - one saying I have overpaid £32.88 on my gas and the other saying I've overpaid £9.21 on my electric :j:j, so that's another £42.09 for the challenge.

    hi wilf55

    Thanx for that, it's a combination of working myself to death in the NHS in overtime and the savings I'm making by giving up smoking just over 6months ago. Have fun and good luck.

    Cheers
