    Good grief. Declaring at £57.54. I've never done that poorly - I'll do better with October from tomorrow, hopefully, as £80 odd is showing as received in my Quidco account.

    Right, I'm declaring at £229.44, not too bad for my first attempt hopefully. I decided not to include all my overtime in with that, so I'm fairly happy.

    Well done everyone that made their targets.

    Thanks froddington debtbegone scubangel and sweetpeas for your kind messages regarding my ankle.
    I did get it checked out straight away - I had to have an x-ray in A&E. I'm really pleased it is not broken, but it has been really sore and difficult to walk (read: hobble) on. Hoping to be able to take a short walk outside the house today:rolleyes:.

    Anyway, declaring at £91.36, short of target, but very pleased as it is money I wouldn't have made without this challenge. Also due about another £260 from switching suppliers via cashback sites, but won't count that until it lands. (And saved £400pa in the process). Am planning to use Aug and Sep's challenge money to make my first ever mortgage overpayment of £125. Very exciting!:T

    Didn't reach the target but still happy!

    I didn't get anywhere near my target. I think it was £76.33/£150 so I'm declaring that as my September total.

    Didn't get very far towards my target either. £75! Better than nothing though :)
