    I know its kinda late, but I would like to join.

    I want to payoff/make a huge dent in my New look store card which currently stands at £148.22

    I'm not sure if I'll be able to pay it all off because my bills for next month are more than I'm earning :eek:(stupid reason which is my fault) but I'm determined to pull in an extra £300 from somewhere

    Hi All

    Hope you are all having a good weekend - the weather has been fabulous.

    £140 ~ £1373.34
    I have had a really good weekend - with tips from my weekend bar job, a few candle sales (sold the candles a few weeks ago but don't count it until I get the cash) and a few bingo wins I have managed to rake up £140!

    If only every weekend was like this lol! I have put on a free bet on Brazil tonight so hopefully I will have something to add tomorrow.

    Good morning everyone

    Reclaimed my free bet with a little profit

    £30 ~ £ 1343.34

    It is going to get harder to find ways to make extra money to pay off my debts so I am going to go away and think of some ideas.
