Just found out that I won £10 on the lottery last night, so added £9 to my signature.

Keep going everyone - there's still time!

hi all... a big well done to those who have already made the £1k and even more!!

i am getting closer and closer... a&l have paid me £100 incentive for opening an account, and i cashed in my nectar points and sold some books on ebay. should definitely make the £1000 now, as i will be saving £171 when my mortgage SO comes out on 26th (thanks to the base rate falling so much!!). will update when i reach the £1k mark.

thanks everyone, this has been my first challenge and it has been great. with the help of this challenge i have become debt free (apart from my mortgage!!) and for the first time in my life have started some savings!! i will do another one in new year - looking at living on £4k but i dont think i could do it!!!

Double scratchcards on $t M!nv€r today again!

Still haven't managed to withdraw and more winnings from takea'runandjump', though, as their verification process is the worst 'service' I have ever encountered. If they didn't hold my money, I'd have told them where to go! It is infuriating. Bails, I reckon the easiest way of doing it is sending everything at one as attachments and then hounding them for confirmation. Like SL and others have said, it isn't all that secure, so remember to block out the security number on back of card plus anything else they have no right to know.

Not long until next year's challenge! :eek: And I'm rubbish at this! :rotfl:

Well done, Mogwai - will that little lot pay off your OD or has it already been earmarked for elsewhere?

Thanks! :j This has been put towards a holiday and a d-slr but the next challenge is going towards clearing my OD since its 0% til March

I didn't have any more eBay sales so thats my lot, I think!

Hi everyone, haven't been around for a while, but have still been slogging away at this challenge. I'm up to 906.49, not sure that I'll get to the 1000, but not too worried. This is 900 I wouldn't have had if not for the challenge!
