Hevva - thanks hun, I like that idea! Some people are going to the wedding all day with their partners, and others are only going to the evening though, so not sure whether they would want to get their own pressies/money/whatever - I might suggest it to the other evening girls though, and see what they think! Thankyou

Jesa - nice to see you back, sounds like the holiday was lovely! Yay for getting this years wedding reception prices too, thats great Not much happening with wedding plans here, but a couple of money saving ideas! Me and my mum have decided to make the invitations ourselves, which should save us a fair bit (was going to get someone else to do them for £150!). We also found some lovely roses made out of wood shavings at our local market of all places, which were £10 for 125 roses- they sound weird, but look really nice, and you'd think they cost a lot more than 8p each! lol. We are going to use them as place settings (just tie people's names to them with ribbon)

Hey all! Have only read back the last 3 pages, will catch up properly later - but for now hi to everyone, and hope you’re all doing well this month! I’ve not been around much lately - it’s been the sales at work, so I’ve practically lived there these last 2 weeks Lol. BUT on the plus side, I can add £150 worth of overtime after tax, just in time for the end of the challenge Also lots of other bits over the last couple of weeks - Cashbackkings £24.50. Valued opinions 75p, Yougov 50p. Received phone bill, so adding £5.48 monthly saving. Mystery shop payments this month of 37.40 after tax and reimbursements. I am also adding £61 which was as a discount on some glasses I bought while doing a mystery shop at an opticians. Have needed some for sooooo long, and would have usually paid the whole amount myself - so was lovely to get them for half price!

That should hopefully bring me to my target - after being stuck at £70 for the whole month, I've finally reached it! Really didn't think I was going to this month!

Dh and I just had £47 paid into our current account today from Co-op dividend. That makes my total for June well over the £10 a day. And when I strted I didn't think I could do it!

£6 saved today in local shop:j There was an offer on on linen trousers by one pair for £9 or two pairs for £15 so I bought 4 pairs of trousers:rotfl:

DietCokeMad

£44 received yesterday for overtime Bringing my total for the month to £407.56 :jSo even without my PPI refund, which was a big chunk of that, I've beat my total.I think next month I'll have to aim for 10 a day!

That sounds lovely - I am planning on making my own invitations and place cards too. I've also had a few ideas about favours - my prefered options at the moment is a little cake or cookie in cellophane rather than the usual sugared almonds. My mum is a superb baker so she can make them and I will ice them as I usually do help her when she makes cakes for others. Although I might just not do favours at all yet, not quite decided

Hi everyone,

Had a bit of a manic day today so worn out lol. (family party in N Yorks so driven there and back and spent all day chasing round after kids etc!)

Not got anything to update, but somewhere along the line- my little list of money earned and my sig don't match up by exactly £65... I don't know why either cos there isn't 1 particular thing on there for £65... hey ho...! I've added another £65 to my sig anyway for whatever it was I've forgotten to add!
Doesn't look as bad as I thought it would do now, so quite please there lol. Only going for £10 next month as not going to have much time to eBay/carboot etc which is where most of my money comes from. Plus, mystery shops seem to have dried up a fair bit lately.

Botte of wine and early night for me, I'm worn out lol.

Enjoy your Saturday night everyone xx
