  • hi all
    well today i have got a bargain,but wonder if it counts.
    neighbour is getting divorced and they are selling their stuff.dd was getting a high sleeper for bday in nov at 200 (it was all she was getting with a hsm sheet set). i managed to get one at the house sale for 50 thus saving 150.
    does it count.
    also made 1 on a valued opinions suryey and 15p from piggy clicks

    Didn't think I'd have anything to add today (day off :j ) but just checked my accounts and have had some annual interest paid into my day to day account of £4.71 so have moved that to my savings account before it gets eaten up by who knows what.


    I kept a spending diary last month (first time I've managed to for a WHOLE month) and spent £250.04 on "stuff" £294.69 on shopping for 5 of us and had 10 NSD:dance: . The "stuff" included bus fares, clothes, toys and erm... a £20 Princess dress for my daughter :whistle: - in my defence it's a reversible dress so therefore it's 2 dresses for £10 each!!!!!

    I'll keep one again this month and see if I can do better.

  • Surveys today... £3.00
    Voucher from ipoints survey... £10.00
    Virgin casino signup with CB site... £5.00

    So £25.53 so far! Now I'm just praying the couple of things I have on ebay, sell.

    Good day today.

    Ooh I also topped up my phone at Boots with a voucher and got a £5 skincare, £5 No7 and 20 advantage card points! Not sure whether to count those towards my total though.

    Have added in my £15 from quidco into my sig :)

    If I was going to buy something anyway but use amazon vouchers that I have got for doing surveys, would that count into my total...?

    Sorry, I'm a newbie :D

    just found a lovely shiny £2 coin at the postbox!
  • Please add me to the challenge, I lost the thread and just found it (I started myself on the 1st) £10 per day is my aim.

    I picked up 4 mystery shopping jobs @ £10 each so a good start for me
    I won't buy it if I can make or borrow it instead

    Did some clicks and surveys this morning (tried at least - kept getting screened out :rolleyes:) requested the £1.20 ( I know I won't spend it all at once!!) that was in my rpoints account and have a little bit on it's way from quidco - but don't count these things until they're in my bank account.

    Got a Mystery Shop to do tonight but again I only count those when I have the money so I know it's all gone through ok and I can work out expenses, tax etc and just count the profit. Means my total will hopefully go up a fair bit in the end of the month this time round ;).
