Renewed car insurance via Quidco (Kwik Fit). Got free MOT test + £45 validated on Quidco.
Renewed car breakdown cover (Green Flag). £25 traced on Quidco.
Bought new PAYG mobile phone for DD's birthday: £45 incl £10 Orange talk time, £10 tracked on Quidco.
Bought 4 large wheeled duffle bags & 3 cabin bags in the Debenhams online sale (spent £265.50 :eek: on a cashback CC (natch) + £10.62 tracked on Quidco) but we really needed new luggage for our NZ trip + 1 of the cabin bags is Raspberry Pink - you know the one - and I will give it to DD as an extra birthday present. Like most girls she loves anything pink! (When do they grow out of that stage?)
On the subject of Quidco, I wonder what the record is for getting paid? This month I got £1.13 for a CD Jungle transaction in December 2006 + £7.50 from Purple Parking in May 2008!
On the Mortgage front I have paid another £2000 off this month. Will update the sig once the new interest calculation is made on the 8th.
One of my big stoozes (£10k) comes to an end in October so I have been a tart & looked for a new place to stash the cash. Have been accepted for the Post Office CC 0% for 12mths but don't know what limit we will be given. Knowing my luck it'll be something tiddly but it'll be better than nothing.;)

Paid off £2441.81 this month. I know its an odd amount but it gave me a nice round sum for the remaining mortgage of: £114,730!
Mortgage payment this month is just over £200.
Haven't heard from the PO what the limit is on the new CC yet.
