January 2006 - PMS Challenge

squiggles

Ive just added £10 to my pin money savings.I unlocked my sons phone so i could put my sim in it as he got a new one for xmas.It was so easy to do,cant remember the site i used but it was on rpoints,i didnt even know you could do it by just punching numbers in the phone i thaught you had to connect it with leads and cables to the pc.As ive had my phone for 3-4 years im quite pleased with my new cast off.dont know how much pin money i have so far as i got one of those pigs you have to break to open it.That will keep me from dipping into my pot.

Right..... £20.77 from 2nd income this week, so aPMS is £43.27. I do have have a small amount due on Friday, so am likely to come in OVER target. :j

OK, wrapping up January's challenge, and I have come out at £50.77 - 77 pence OVER! :j

:beer: to all who have reported so far, how's everyone else done?

Nearly six quid for me - which on a spend for the month of nothing much is pretty good

Had loads of extra Dividend points this month. My colleague always takes my card when she nips out at work, so hopefully will rack up a good total

For my first bash I saved £59.83 in January. Really chuffed as my target for January was only £20. Going for £30 February.

I ended up with £125.12 - mostly from selling "declutter" stuff on eBay!
Savings were £8.49 of that. Won't be able to do so much on eBay every month but it has paid for a slow cooker, a bread maker, renovating a favourite chair - with a few pounds left over! So now can save money elsewhere too. Thanks for this great idea! :j

And I came in more than £50 under my Grocery challenge so am setting that lower this month (just thought - does that count as PMS?).

This month I am aiming for £50 including eBay sales. We have just bought a house and are doing major modernisation before we can move in so all PMS is heading for that from now on!

Well I've just taken advantage of the co-op offer on suet and their twofer thing and then I spotted a chicken reduced from 3.49 to 2.49 - so my pin money total is now just over eight quid
