  • WOOOHOOO pinkneonmartini - that's fab! :T

    Today has brought £2.80 Amazon profit, plus £6 survey money from the sprucy one - both added to sig.

    Even taking out the holiday money that was our present, I'm still really chuffed with the amount I've made this month. I don't think I would have managed half of this without all the ideas on here. See you all on the January thread unless I have any unexpected bonuses over the next couple of days!

    Today I've got £2.30 profit on a book sold through Green Metropolis.

    I also got a free gift worth £15.65 in Lush. I went in there to get some shampoo and conditioner - and was told I could choose a free item from all their Christmas gift sets or other stock made before 1 December as I'd spent £20! As the gift isn't obviously Christmas, I shall give it to a friend for her birthday at the end of January!

    (I realise £20 is a lot of money to spend on shampoo and conditioner but they'll last me AGES - about 4 months - and I juggle things so I can still get them despite being on a DMP.)
    Debt Jan 2008: £45,566. *** June 2013: DEBT FREE! ***
    Paid back just under £50,000 due to some interest added.

    Yesterday I booked a holiday with a flight voucher that I won last January (I didnt do the £10 a day challenge then:rolleyes: ) - the flight voucher was worth £160 and had to be used by 3rd Jan 09:eek: Well my chap has use of a flat over in Alicante so we are going there from 9-16 Jan, the voucher paid for the two of us but as I have hold luggage and wanted a window seat I ended up paying £27.

    Today I managed to save myself £10 as I bought a load of christmas wrapping paper, ribbon and cards plus a calendar all at half price in my local garden centre - I don't need to buy any cards or wrapping paper now for at least 2 years:j

    Off to update my sig.

    Fab news to the person who managed to get over £500 back from her teachers' pension.:j :beer: :T

    Hi guys, a few more bits to add to my challenge total. i did two mystery shops yesterday which made me a profit of £18. I also wona £10 gift voucher out of a cracker on Christmas day, so have added that two and a book sale from amazon.

    So thats £37 to add to my total.

    Congrats to those who have completed the challenge and i hope you have a nice time in Alicante, Horace.
