    First payment for March today... confirmation that my cashback payment has gone through £5.01 woop. And a £16 mystery shop.

    I am transferring over £20 to my ISA so my first payment for March is £20 and my total so far £2120 :j(maybe that should be £21.01...)

    Also, declined an offer for a night out that would probably cost me a minimum of £60 (just for the night) so am pleased as I would have been struggling this month.

    I have listed a couple of things on ebay-fingers crossed! I like to set myself ebay targets so am aiming to make £50 this month (excluding fees etc)

    Hi to everyone, and fantastic payments made by so many of you x

    Shadydaz, you are doing a sterling job of this, this must have taken ages. Loving all the stats at the bottom. Thanks for all the work you put in:T

    Can't wait to see what the totals are when we get a full update from all those who haven't posted yet:j

    yes it does take a while, but am getting quicker at doing it and to be fair, whenever someone posts and update I bang it in immediately. It's just going through the Non-Posting participants that takes a while, but I have their last post page number on the spreadsheet so I don't have to go through the whole thread.

    A couple of updates from me; I siad I was going to try and have a big March, well I kinda paid off one of those intended debts last Friday, so a month early equating to £389.15 reductiion in debt and onto my £10k total. Also my Building Society Saver matured yesterday, I have inadvertantly made an extra payment into it, it was only £50 a month. As a result i earned a whooping £10.50 interest. Now just got to decide where to put it and when.

    I would like it to go into the ISA with the other savings but want to keep the money seperate as it is MY savings for my "toy" car and it will only get swallowed up with the savings intended to pay the loan off early.

    For the moment it is sat in BS current account, whilst safe, it isn't "working" for me earning more dosh.
