Hoorah I've just sorted out my change from my piggybank and have £66.50 in there so am going to add that to my total and go and put it all in an ISA - only £90.80 to go I'm so pleased and if I hadn't found this thread and become so addicted to it that money would've all been frittered away and not saved so thanks everyone for all your encouraging messages and new ways to save and make money. Have to definitely work harder on keeping my budget down but I've got the bug now so onwards and upwards...0

I got a £10 Amazon voucher i won from Nielson net ratings today so added to total.
I am having trouble withdrawing from take a break, want loads of ID :rolleyes: I have it but its a pain!Now a SAHM trying to earn some spare pennies each month0 -
another £28.44 added - the money from wink bingo landed in my account today
i've got another £25 or so to add from matched betting in the next few days - just got to wait for the money to get to my bank account.
i get paid next week, so i'll be able to put a bit more money in my betting exchange account, and not have to keep withdrawing and depositing from my current account. i should be able to start working on the bigger offers too0 -
I'm having very serious second thoughts about this Challenge, am facing health issues, but can't stop the debt busting altogether or I'll make my health worse through stress!
So what - someone up there has a sense of cruel irony?!

Right, as I am over £800 now, I thought I'd go a little crazy and see if there was any way I could reach 1k in a month! :eek::rotfl::eek: This is probably highly unlikely in 5 days but what the h*ll eh? Whatever I can get will help
