    Found out the other day that if you go through cashback site for eBay purchases and sales that you get 40% of the fee ebay charge back! So my bargain of a £5 pool table for OH DS was actually 50p less through c.b.s. I'm soooooooo chuffed with that! Also did some cleaning for £10 extra.

    Welcome Dumblemom - I'll go add you now for £5 a day starting today.

    I just had a call from The Most Useless Garage in the World (TM) - my MOT and repairs are costing £150! My car is 5 years old and I don't trust them. Have armed myself with lots of research to go down there and trip them up if they are lying to me about the repairs needing to be done.
    Not been here in years! Hi everyone. Make £10 a day challenge = £78.45/155

    ^lol @ twonks. You're the only person I've ever seen use that word... apart from moi :p:p

    I'm ahead of target at the minute, but have no idea what to do now as I have run out of money making ideas :confused: I have cashback pending but it won't clear until December. Hmmm!

    Thanks hun. They knew how cross I was so all the mechanics had gone home when I got there. So I had no one to argue with apart from the poor young girl serving in the garage shop. Couldn't take it out on her so will call them Monday for an ear bashing:mad:

    Made a few pennies form Boots points today but nothing else unfortunately. Will add when I find my receipt.

    Off out with the girls to celebrate one of their birthdays tonight so I'll probably be late on here tomorrow due to hangover. Have a lovely evening all:beer:

    EDIT - found my Boots receipt so 20p made today
