  • Really focused this month and managed to accumulate £381.18 against a target of £150.00, to very pleased.
    I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.

  • Jesa - a huge massive hug for you hun, I'm so sorry to hear about your dad's illness. It's so unfair. I really am thinking of you all, and sending you all my thoughts. We're all here if you want a chat chick xxx

    I don't really feel like updating after reading sad news :( but I already typed my post out in Word before coming on here (what a geek!) so I'll copy and paste...

    Hi all! I've not updated my challenge since the beginning of Sept - can't believe it's nearly the end of the month, how did that happen? I've been keeping a a list on my computer like a good little Moneysaver though, and have made my target, just about. Since I last updated I have made the following;

    Ebay £3
    Overtime £2.83
    Yougov £1.50
    Doubled up a Clubcard voucher to spend on health and beauty, so will add £5 from that.
    Overtime this week and last £106.57.
    Lightspeed £1
    Travel expense cheque £4.20
    Amazon £4.22
    Mystery shop payments £26.60
    Valued opinions £1.50
    Tips £2
    My lovely mum got me a gift voucher from the hairdressers for my next visit! She really is a star. So will add the £22.50 I would have spent on that :)
    Also fiance’s mum gave me £20 to pay for last night’s takeaway, bless her - I wouldn’t usually add this, but I had already paid by card over the phone, so it’s cash which I can put back in the bank.

    I've started my postgraduate uni course and it's taking up a huge amount of time, so not sure how much time I'll have for Moneysaving from now on - certainly not much overtime or mystery shopping. I'll still have a go next month, just maybe for £5 instead of my usual £10. I might make some more tomorrow though as got a rare day off, so won't declare yet! Good luck for last couple of days of the challenge everyone x

    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
