    Enjoy the BBQ Jesa! We've got gorgeous sunshine too, but I've got work in a couple of hours so can't go and sit in a beer garden or anything (which is what I'd really like to do!) lol.

    Also won the pink nail varnish - torn between keeping and adding to best friend's birthday present bag as a little extra... think I will be generous!

    Also some good and bad news, good news is my hated second job have offered me a rather shiny full time position - promotion and more money and generally better! Although this means my second job will become my first and only job so I will have to find some extra money making avenues if I'm going to keep up with this challenge! I wil put my thinking cap on as I can't contemplate being ejected from the £10 a day club!

    Haha I did exactly the same with the nail varnish! I really liked it, but thought my friend would like it more so it got put in with her birthday pressies :D Very MSE of us! Well done on getting offered more money from 2nd job too hun! Defo still carry on the challenge without the 2nd job wages - it will just motivate you to work even harder to reach your target ;)

    I've got some bits to add to my total; Amazon sale £2.53 after postage (I’d forgotten I even had anything listed on there, so that was a nice surprise; good job I still had the item!) £3.85 work travel expense payment, £2 Capital Bonds from work. £2 petrol money from my little brother, and 30p in Clubcard points for buying petrol (anyone else noticed they’ve stopped doing double points on petrol, boooo :( ) Oh and my lovely mum gave me £5 just as I was going out last night, and my nan’s just given me £10 - haven’t done anything to deserve it really, so was very chuffed! 3 of my Ebay items have just ended too, which should be about £13 profit after fees etc - will add exact amount when I've posted them. I am on a mission to reach this £15 a day now!

    Had a really cheap night out last night too which was good - I only took out £25 and actually came home with £10 yay! Not sure how I managed that - probably helped that my friend works in the pub we were at so we got some nice freebie drinks, and also took a bottle of wine with us and hid it under the table! :o:p

    Attempting to pay off our debts! Balances Jan 2018 -
    Family member £3,700 - Virgin CC £1,000 - MBNA £1,700 - Barclaycard £2,500 (was £2,700) - Halifax CC £1,280

    Good idea glitter - we used to take a bottle of vodka to the pub and order pineapple juice all night. The bar staff never seemed to twig even though we always left drunk

    Had a lovely afternoon although I caught the sun a bit even though I had cream on so I look a little pink :(

    No more money to add today though yet
