    Just checked Quidco - I have £140.?? to come :j :j :j

    £100 is defo for the cards, as it's my car insurance which is sat somewhere I've moved it all too many times to say where :rotfl:

    Another £35 is O2...hmm should pay for next months bill really, seems fair.

    And the odd is from things I've bought...so that goes into the "float" savings jar

    Great start to the year :D (It probably won't clear until Weds if the last few months payment are any indication!)

    It's £140.65 :j

    I know I don't say it enough but I love this site :D

    Well, the £40 which I had in £2s has been spent, however, this is over five big nights out which is pretty good going I think. So have £6 left, and starting again as of today.
    Going to save towards the Bronze Money for Nothing challenge for six months then it'll go to credit cards, the other six months will fund Xmas :)

    Need to recount my change tomorrow as my totals are way out of date, since I spent it all over Xmas, so I'll add the new total to the Olympic Challenge.

    Really peeved at work, they've taken away all overtime and given the contract I was promised to someone else :( So I'm pretty screwed.
    Going to have to look for another job alongside it

    Okay, need to help out the parents again.

    My mum's contributing income is down as £320 per month which is actually £200 in tax credits.
    The other £120 relies on my dad's extra income which is very variable, but it was the only way to get a DMP to look realistic.
    So myself and my mum need to generate this per month...

    Ideas??

    All my spare money has gone into a matched bet, pooping my pants :rotfl:

    I'm sure every matched betting virgin felt like that, so I'm sure the next one will be easier :)

    Yes, lost the signup bonus though because I'd used Gala bingo before, bit gutting.

    I've leapt in with both feet! 14/1 odds so had to stick £270 in one account :eek:
    Have you made your first bet yet?

    Mine's on CBB so won't know for three weeks!

    Listed my first Ebay item, really nervous but hopefully it'll sell. Same item has gone for £30 lately :)

    Then it's the unwanted uniform :)
