Mogwai, nobody is as slow at this as me because I'm only counting brand new money not associated with work, so it isn't going too well. A whole £1.76 added today from a refund that's gone straight into my account. I'm still waiting to hit £50 and we're almost a third of the way through! :rotfl: As for listing, I even tried listing my tumble drier and got no interest so ended up giving it away through Freecycle. :rolleyes: Maybe I'll change the name of the challenge to make an extra £1000, FULL STOP!I reserve the right not to spend.
The less I spend, the more I can afford.

well nyk, i havent been counting repayment of loans, so my totals taken a big hit right there! I am counting money from tutoring though, as I started that during the last challenge, and was kind of inspired/motivated into doing it by this challenge..
heres hoping you and me (and all others in need of help!) get a lucky push towards the end, but if not, all new money is goodWe got rid of the kids. The cat was allergic.
