    Hi,

    With Bingoport I only bet the points i get for my ten posts each day so i cash in 1000 points. Then i play these and if i win anything I cash it out. So if i win 20 points I cash them out and keep playing. I usually manage to build up enough points for an amazon voucher nearly every week.

    Hi, yeah I think Martin has an article on claiming for late trains so presumably cancelled also qualifies... And yikes, is that how much a pint costs these days?! Last time I had one it was about £2.10!!

    I know! Unbelieveably this place charges £1 per transaction on a card:eek: I hadn't taken money with me so it was either sit with no drink and seem antisocial or pay the charge - daylight robbery really!

    What do you have to post on Wendz? seems like a pretty easy way to boost the points total if that is all you have to do to build them up?!

    Morning morning! Couple of ebay auctions finished last night, 3 little sales so will update the figures once I have worked out the postage later. Got to buy lunch today as haven't had time to make it the last couple of nights - ok well I probably did but I didn't get round to it, there, I said it. Football tonight so give the legs a good run out and hopefully a little more to knock off the bin later on.

    Have a good one.

    Ok, quick update - total after postage and ebay fees should be £5.45 for three little items which is not groundbreaking, but it is a little more to knock off the totals! Hopefully a bit more on one of the other items that is still listed, 6 watchers and 2 bids, a bidding frenzy is lurking just around the corner with any luck!

    Fingers crossed, and those little sales are 10% of the bin (don't know if it's wise to break the debt down even further that you already have, but still!)

    Maybe I can say I have paid for the lid?!:D

    Woo! Even if you do it in small little bits here and there you do at least feel like you are making headway, if I can get through this bin in the next week or so I will have paid of £75 which in isolation seems like a much bigger amount and all I am doing is the odd £5 here and there shaved off my normal spending!

    It is a good good feeling!:beer:

    A no spend day today, and being as the last couple have covered the ridiculous cost of a beer on monday I can actually divert today's money to the attack abbey pot so 4.28 to add today!

    Gotta sort car insurance out tonight, will check on the cashback sites for offers and see what comes up best overall...
