I have yet to do any of the things on my list (except build a snow man) so I am walking away from the computer. MSE is soooooooooooooo addictive and the forums are sooo intersting

I agree, just cleaned bathroom and kitchen including cooker and now I'm so warm i can turn heating off :T

Well I braved the snow to go to the post office, an extra £4.50 to add from amazon sales...and I managed not to pop into the shop on the way back for a magazine and a choccie bar! Feeling slightly awed by this challenge now as so many people seem to have already paid/saved so much....not sure I'll hit the 10k...but I'm going to try my hardest to get as close as I can.

Hey do you guys think that customising cardigans and selling them is good for making money? x

Hi, IMO it could be a good idea. Do you mean vintage style like you can buy in the vintage shops or in Topshop concessions etc?
No idea about profits/costs though, just like customised clothes :cool:


UPDATE: My £15 Quidco payment went in so have transferred to my ISA and have updated my signature :T

I will still post my monthly totals at the end of the month as will be easier to track.

I've been naughty and spent £3.98 on my lunch break. I badly needed some gloves though as I don't have any and I walk to and from work, so I found some for 1.99 and I thought I'd better get my OH some as well as don't want his mitts getting cold too!

Then while I was out I noticed a full Cafe Nero loyalty card in my purse so got myself a free coffee for the walk back to work! x

Yeah vintage style, i've seen a few up there and thought why not... i'll start off doing my size so then if they dont sell, I can wear them! x

Thats a good idea- There's some gorgeous ones in Topshop- boyfriend style cardigans with huge embellishments.
I'd love to see a picture when you've done it please, if you are thinking of selling?

I had a snow day yesterday as work was closed, and we got to leave early today. I like.
