    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.

    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!
