    It's update day so drop me a PM with your totals and I'll get updating.

    Good luck sizzlers, keep up the good work!

    £10 from scratch cards to add. I plan to get more ebaying and books sold next month. We're working reduced hours from 1st March so I'll have more time to do it, and need the money even more.

    I count any vouchers I use, if I would have spent the money if I didn't have the vouchers. EG I use Tesco voucher to buy RAC membership every year. I'd have bought the RAC membership anyway so I count the vouchers.
