    a lovely £160 rent rebate, a £5 voucher off l!ghtspeed, £10.20 off OH's scratchcard, and not to mention my boss owed me £9.80 and gave me a £10 note - 20p profit for my kindness in lending the money.

    oh yeah and its not at cash out yet but i got £5 today on my st minver s-card - won't add it to total til i've cashed in but just wanted to mention it as it's so rare these days on my scratchies! :D
  • £7.59 ebay profit and £50.93 winnings from m*cca games - both came into my bank account today so added to my total. Also £5 from my OH for typing up his OU assignment!
  • OH did a sports massage last night for £20 and we were given £20 for our anniversary from some relatives so another £40 to add.

    cashback cheque gone into my account - £15 to add. This is slow going! Are people counting loans repaid? I did for my last challenge, seems not everyone counts it as money earned for this one??

    Not too sure what you mean by this, do you mean like lending a friend money and then they pay it back to you? I wouldn't count it, but have noticed others putting loan repayments through. I do count (teeny, weeny, tiny) interest payments on bank accounts. :)
    I reserve the right not to spend.
    The less I spend, the more I can afford.

  • Well, my first sales happened on ebay today. About £100 worth. I need to get motivated to list more in the next couple of days. Hope everyone else is doing ok.
    :grin: Save me from spending...
