I've not been on bingo port but keep hearing about it- might give it a try. You can't win em all mate
You're luck might pick up once we get a bit further away from Fri 13th lol.
Hugh Grant? He's alright. His voice sometimes grinds a bit if I listen to him too much. I might watch that then, like films like that- just never got round to watching it.

Morning All :hello:
I have made the decision to use my ISA account which I opened with good intentions about a year ago :rolleyes: (and which currently has an amazing £1.02 in) to save towards taking the family to Florida 2011.
I know it sounds ages away, but in terms of saving £4000-5000 it's really not that much of a long time at all lol.
So, I am going to start by putting my two £5 withdrawals in it which I've made this weekend from Virgin b1ingo
I know I've a long way to go, but I thought if I posted it on here it might encourage me to actually follow through with it lol
Essay finished
Hope everyone is okay this pleasant Sunday morningxx

Good luck with the saving up for the trip sweetpeas, nothing to add yet today except an annoyance at having to cancel a couple of mystery shops because our drive is blocked and I couldnt get to them on public transport. Thankfully the drive is now unblocked so am waiting for my Dad so we can go do the other three booked for today.It’s not worth doing something unless someone, somewhere, would much rather you weren’t doing it.

Hi, ive been signed up to MSE forum for years but not really utilised it. Can you put me down for £5 a day too? :0) Im thinking in 30 days thats £150!! AMAZING!
So today I went out for the day and my lovely boyf treated me to lunch for being good with my budget. I'm hoping this counts? :oPFirst home- Oct’16 until June’21: £170.995- Overpayments made £13,784 (25% extra!).
New forever home- Sep’21 £309,449 @ 2.05%. Plan to clear it before 30 years!!!!!!0 -
HI Kitten, welcome to the thread :hello:
You can count whatever you want really apart from obviously your main job/source of income.
Some people count 2nd income, surveys points as they do the surveys/as they withdraw cash, bingo winnings, mystery shops, money saved by using bogof's, being good and not buying something you would normally have.
Last month I was very good and saved £1 a day in a little jam jar which lives on my book shelfI counted this as it was money which I was going to use towards something in particular that I probably wouldn't have saved had it not been for this challenge
So everyone is different.
Good luck, shout up if you're stuck with anything- we're all very nice on here
