    :DHi Jammy

    Count me in too please - I need to get money making again instead of just spending :D

    I'm a bit confused - is the challenge what we earn from the 1st Sept as you mentioned we could count vouchers we already have ? :confused: (and I have had some from surveys that I didn't have at the last challenge ;))

    Just count anything you have been stashing for Xmas. Doesn't matter too much when you started with the vouchers, but eBay etc. start from now. Was going to start on 1st Sept, but a few people had mentioned it so I started it early . Welcome :D

    :ABeing Thrifty Gifty again this year:A

  • Jamtart - could I please be registered for the challenge? I am such a lurker on this board that I keep getting into trouble with my OH for the time spent on the PC.

    I am aiming to have about £150 saved for XMAS and aything else would be a HUGE bonus.

    Alos, have registered on Dooyoo thanks to your sterling advice!!:j

    Bit confused here - no surprise there then :rotfl:.
    How I see it - I draw a line under what I made already (will be total up to 1st August as haven't updated since then) and anything new I make will go towards my Coal status - is that right? :confused:
    Edit: just reread your post or do you mean current total less eBay from earlier in the year?

    Better not go for coal status though as am waiting for £20 worth of vouchers to arrive so a fiver wouldn't be much of a challenge :rotfl:.

    And the free Avon lipgloss I got today would count in for whatever it should have cost me :confused:.
    About 50p's worth on onepoll today if anyone hasn't checked today.

    If someone can just explain it to me so I can understand I'm in.
    Officially a non-smoker but still rounder than recommended :p

    Does that also mean I can include the 80p I saved in a sale on rubber stamps today :rotfl::rotfl:
