Not sure who u bank with, but I bank with Yorkshire Bank and they usually give me loads when I ask, very nice !

Tell the bank you need the bags to deposit money in a childs account - they are usually happy to let you have loads then.

Probably not very money saving when you can get the bags for free but I have used food bags in the past and the banks accepted them without a problem.

Sold another book on ebay so another few pounds to add - hoping to bank it before the end of the month!
Aliasajo has got the undying gratitide of Mr HQ as not only do I keep throwing extra money in the bank, i'm clearing out the cupboards as I go! Has inspired him to look in the garage and see what old tat (sorry Mr HQ!) he can get rid of for cash.

I have been very lucky these last couple of weeks, I got 4 numbers on my thunderball ticket last week and I got 4 numbers on my lottery ticket last night and won £91!!!!!!!! I need some of it but I have £63 to put in my overpayments so I have made the £700 and managed to double this months mortgage payment. Any more now will go to June! Not her personally, the month, got to start from scratch with just regular overpayment of £9.05!!

:T Well done HQ! Your posts are very inspiring to a beginner like me!
so far I have my ol style savings going into the pig and have just signed up to some survey sites. I hope to be up and running on amazon soon as well.
Slowly but surely I will get there.
