  • another £16.35 to add from matched betting :) less than £6 to go to reach the £800 mark! i'm still waiting for about £23 to clear, and i'm hoping that will happen tomorrow :)

    i'm working on some qualifying bets at the moment too, so i should have a few £25 free bets to play with next week :)

    hi all

    sorry i missed the halfway point, but now have £58.82 to add to my total as sold a load of stuff on ebay - total now £464.16 :j

    hoping topcashback is going to sort out my pruhealth and lloyds tickets soon - have been waiting for the £85 from pru since feb:eek: - so that i can pass the halfway mark!! also waiting for £100 cashback from co-op bank and another £100 from a&l for opening accounts with them. And thank god for BOE rate cuts, that should help too!

    Getting there slowly... :) well done everyone :A

    Another couple of pounds added for me from 2 small eBid sales, still not enough anywhere else to transfer to account but still hopeful of having extra savings up front for my 2009 4k challenge, though :D I'm stunned at everyone who has already thundered past the £1000 mark! Well done to all and good luck to those who are now going for 2k - Bails, you are doing an amazing job there! Keep up the good work :)
    I reserve the right not to spend.
    The less I spend, the more I can afford.

    Original Frugal living challenge was living on £4000, but that's now equivalent to £6,845.15

    Now frugalling towards retirement.
  • Been away for a couple of weeks on holiday, but good to be back and see how well everyone is doing. Just updated my signature, came back to £5 voucher from direct line, £13.50 in clubcard vouchers, £110 from quidco and and extra £98 in paypacket from overtime. Must get back to grips with this challenge.
    Make £10 a day challenge - January 2023 = £292.89/£310 - Feb 2023 = £677.09/280 - March 2023 = £102.45/£310 - April = £300.12/300 - May 2023 = £306.80/£310 - June = £245.88/£150 - July = £295.45/£310 - August 2023 £51.56/£310

  • £39.30 profit from ebay to add
  • nothing to add for me today, at least not yet. i do have about £80 due to come in from matched betting, so i'm hoping to reach the £900 mark by the end of the week, which should be possible if everything goes to plan and clears when it's supposed to.

    i would love to make the full £100 before the end of November, but as yet, i don't have enough in the matched betting pipeline to manage that. i might have to break into the bookies that deal in euros next week, but i'm not sure i'm brave enough for that yet!!
