Hi all, hope everyone is well. I am feeling all impatient now because I decided before ringing my insurance company to tell them I was staying with them to just have a look on quidco and see if there was anything worth doing, I tried RAC and it came back with a quote of £10 less with £70 cashback, so I decided to take it and it hasn't tracked yet

I know things take a while but it did say it tracks within 0-1 day so I thought it would do it immediately or today. Have put a question on the quidco board but I am going to be very unhappy if I miss out.

Anyway, todays list:

• found car insurance £10 cheaper and possible £70 cashback
• coins in piggy
• £2 coin in pot
• opened an ISA
• found 5p:D
• free coffee at work
• updated spreadsheet
• litre of water and vitamins
• checked online banking

Food too carp to mention. Am stressed. Have been reasonably good this week so shall consider it a blip.

Ziggles, I agree with Feefee, a shared fund for essentials only is a good idea.

Gwen hope you feel better soon, am also coming down with something and feel carppy.

Sarah even if it doesn't track immediately you can query it later and you will usually get the money - I've been successful both times it's happened to me.

Thanks skint spice, I know I am being ridiculously impatient but I like to see things tracking straight way. I like my free money:D

Don't we all! do you know I actually used to buy stuff off companies on the internet without checking if they were available on a cashback site.:o in the olden days...

Only wish I had known about it a few years ago, the daily clicks were worth doing then as well, I think. Just haven't got the time or patience for them now at such low amounts.

I love finding something I like and can justify, finding it on quidco and finding a code on the discount board as well. Have saved loads doing that:j

Am just annoyed as I have handed over a lot of money, my insurance is quite high despite car being heap. :rolleyes:

I was thinking of doing the love film one, please let me know if it is easy to cancel, always worry about not being able to do it easily and ending up with films arriving forever.:rolleyes:

I just cannot wait until I get my own house and get all the insurance/sky/energy things:j:o

Don't worry Sarah
You will get your house (and all the cashback opportunities that go with it) and you will be able to do all of that without trying to juggle all the silly unnecessary debts as well. As great as it is to buy a house if you have to manage the extra costs and a bundle of frivolous 'nothing to show for it' debts as well it can be really stressful...
Hang on in there and get that deposit back up to where we all know you can :beer:
