Blimey. I'm having a bit of a day here. Just finally ordered a £10 voucher from Pigsback (will not be doing them any more, getting this voucher has been like pulling teeth since they moved the goalposts), and saved £6.26 in teh Books etc closing down sale on Christmas presents.0

Sweetpeas - thanks for sharing information re: Operation Christmas Child - I hadn't heard of it before - just found out that we've got a drop-off point really close by so there's time for us to do a box this year. My DS & I will be on to it over the weekend. thanks.Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful.

Ok, time to update :j
£14.30 profit from selling a textbook
£19 refund from the DSA due to being over charged for my driving test 4 years ago (took them long enough!!)
So my totals are now:
£115.82/£150
Will be listing loads on Ebay on Sunday so hopefully will have more to update shortly, although it looks like i'm on track (i think ... :rotfl:)
Money pending ...
Money in paypal (under £6 so I can't withdraw yet)
Mystery shopping money from RE and GAP
A refund on make up I was missold
I am determined that all extra money I make every month will be going into my savings (aiming for £3000 by December 31st 2009 - house deposit fund) Except £25 from this month - paid my CC **slaps wrists for using CC**
Sorry for the long post but i'm going with the theory that if i tell people that I am doing this then I will be motivated to do it.
Also ... I have a new bank card which I haven;t activated yet so I am not just spending on crap, yay!0
