    Hey my fellow challenge lovelies! Hope you're all better than the miserable weather :) Glad to be of help with the Mazuma Mobile thing Savingfortravel :D

    Little bits for me today… found £1 in my car, and my little bro gave me £3 petrol money for giving him lifts over the bank hol weekend (I probably saved him that 5 times over on taxis! Lol). 20p from Onepoll - I only need 70p more to cash out now, yay! Oh and just had a FANTASTIC survey through from Valued Opinions - 4 questions, took 30 seconds and it paid £2??? Did anyone else get it? I’m sure they must have made a mistake, but I’m not complaining! Makes up for all the ones that take half an hour and pay 50p :p

    Had an expensive weekend with a big night out, spent more than I meant to - but I really enjoyed myself, and could just about afford it thanks to this challenge :D I had a little slip up on my way to put some money in the bank today too - it accidentally all ended up in New Look’s tills instead, oops. Thankfully the pair of shoes, top and cardi I bought all look horrible now I’ve got them home, so will return them tomorrow; damage averted! Cashed out from the scratchies, so hoping that will be in my account in a couple of days. Have found a few bits and bobs to Ebay too - not much but am hoping I might get £30 or so, must list them tomorrow! I also did a bingo offer through Onepoll cashback which promised £20 cashback if you deposit £10 which would be great if I got it - but it hasn’t tracked :( It’s the first time I’ve used them - has anyone had any good experiences to reassure me?

    Glad I could be of help - they sound lovely and if its something you really want then its worth it. I wish my OH would give up smoking. His whole family smoke so until we get a place together he will never give up. We spent half an hour in WH Smith today flicking through all the wedding mags so we didn't need to buy them.

    My pops has an old friend with two Rolls Royces so we are going to have a look at them and see if we like them for our wedding. That would save us a lot although I'm not bothered if we go in my car as long as someone else drives me:D

    Today I found 3p on the floor in the carpark and 1p left behind in Primark - waste not want not! Plus 48p on a Playtrade sale

    I was sure I replied to this, but I can't find my post! lol. Aw it's taken me 4 years to get OH to give up smoking so I know how frustrating it is - hope yours gives up soon hun, fingers crossed! It's getting so expensive to smoke now isn't it, OH was spending at least £30 a week. He's been off them nearly 2 weeks now so that's £60 eek! Good tip about WH Smith too :p Hope the Rolls royces turn out nice for you hun - it would be great to save that much, as cars are so expensive arent they. OH's dad has a classic car that I can't remember the name of, so we're going in that :)

    LOVE the idea of all us MSE'ers picking up pennies in Primark - I've started picking up coins in the street now too, my little brother was so embarrassed when I did it the other day but every little helps :D I was in a club once and found a pound on the floor, then another one and another and another - I must have found about £20 in pound coins in the end, that some drunken person had dropped lol. Wish that would happen every night!

    £12.76 from Amazon.

    I also got quite excited about this offer. The Daily Mail are offering a Free 2 month Family & Friends Railcard. You don't have to buy the Daily Mail. you just have to register by 13th May. Here's the link - http://www.familyandfriends-railcard.co.uk/forms/dailymail. At the end of the 2 months you can get a 50% discount on an annual F & F Railcard. Apparently you can get also get free membership of the Youth Hostel Association & various other offers when you buy the card online. Well that's my summer sorted.

    Unfortunately I was extremely dozy today and managed to lose my favourite silver chain & a pair of contact lenses. Definitely a "day of two halves". :confused:

    While I'm off the starting blocks received payments today £1.82 from Quidco & £17.94 from Cashbackchief.

    The little bit of marketing (posted link on various forums) I did last month to advertise my website has paid off - people have visited and left comments/questions on the guestbook and have used my links to sign up to cashback sites. :j

    Bingoport members - For those of you that redeem for Amazon vouchers and use them to make purchases. Just thought you would like to know you can earn cashback on Amazon purchases on Quidsinuk even if you use vouchers to pay.

    Finally got my mileage payment from work - am adding half of it to the challenge as I had already paid out for petrol and parking, and just over £20 of it was taxed, but it's still a massive £52.64 :D

    Shame I haven't got any more owing to me :rolleyes:

    Thanks I didn't think anyone still did Amazon cashback, and I think I joined quidsinuk a while back... must go check, I seem to have joined so many I cant keep track never mind actually use them. :o

    Just been checking my diary for tomorrows MS jobs - :eek: its going to be a busy one, three different towns and a phone call (not as bad as it seems, I have to go to one place anyway for work, the other is straight down the m'way and the third I can do on my way home), still will be lovely when it all gets paid. :j

    Nothing else paid or payable yet but a few more pennies in to my survey accounts.
