    i'm going to list my pre pregnancy clothes - they're too big woohoo... they are mostly evans stuff so someone would be getting a bargain so I hope they sell:-)

    managed to finish a ds game I got for christmas so I can trade that in for cash to put towards the neutral fund.

    So far the first birthday I've had is neutral and the second will be when I transfer some cash over to cover what I bought at home bargains...doing well so far this year :-) Februarys birthday is covered with a recycled pressie from christmas so very neutral there too. Working on March now :-)

    great news for me today. my friend has been asking if she could buy my old phone. she has been saying it since october. she turned up this morning with £50. i told her she could have it for £40 but she said because it had a memory card and all the bits even the box and was in great condition she would give me £50. so im very pleased didnt expect it so it goes towards my challenge:D

    I'm up to £30.00 now on Dooyoo and I've got £20.00 in Amazon vouchers from Mums Opinions. If I can carry on and get £50.00 every month that'll be christmas paid for. Thanks for all your help and support, I couldn't have done it without you.
    Trying to be money neutral for christmas
  • I'm at £30 too...It seemed to take forever to get there, but I'm hoping to get in a routine of doing a few a day and hopefully that'll add to my income, which will be useful for paying for Xmas etc.

    Has anyone hit £50 yet?
    Signature down for maintenance :rotfl:
