I should join - a tenner a day would pay my rent. Any more money-making ideas though? I don't have anything to put on ebay, and will never do mystery shopping again ...0

Hi all & HNY!! Well cheating a little & giving myself a head start! Please tell me off if I shouldn't cheat a little! Used to do this challnge but found adding totals saved up on supermarket receipts to be very time consuming. The average we used to save averaged around £50 a month, so will start with this total. Will update tomorrow after putting in a little overtime. Good luck all!!Debt at LBM(July 1st 07)-£35,053.92 Debt on 1st Anniversary of LBM(July 1st 08)-£33,170.11 (31st January 09)-£32,318.73Paid off so far £2,735.19(7.8%) Average paid off p.m. £143.95 L/H supporter 115 DFD target February 2018 DFD March 2028. PAD(Started 28/12/08) £253.77 £10 a day Feb £110/£280 WEDDING Paid off £1,585.96 Saved Up £925.400

I've had a good start too, as I've agreed to do an extra shift of bar work tonight (4 hours). I'm not going to count my overtime at my main daytime job (as I do quite a lot there, so it's like my normal wages anyway), but this is my 2nd job and they hardly ever offer me overtime, so I'm going to include it. Crappy minimum wage, but still, that's £22.92 to get me started!
Edited - just found a Yougov survey in my inbox and completed that, so another 50p to add to the total! (I'm going to add all my surveys as soon as I do them rather than when I actually recieve the money, as I already have money in my accounts from 2008 so it would be cheating to include that in the payouts! lol).

Just been to Sainsburys to buy a few bits and found 11w long life bulbs, equivalent to 60w, normal price 99p on offer at 5 for 50p. Can I put the £4.45 I saved towards my £5 for today? I was really pleased as I am trying to replace all my bulbs with the low energy ones. I am also due about £16 from Quidco, a bit disappointed as I was expecting about £50 but hopefully it will come through for January. Can anyone tell me how to change my total? I don't remember how it works, don't even know how I put the challenge on in the first place to be honest. :rotfl:Sell £1500

If you save money on something you were going to buy anyway then definately add it!
