    WAS £116.74

    Add: £12.20 - vouchers
    £ 0.02 - found
    £15.80 - tiki
    £10.27 - ebay
    £ 11.38 - cashback received

    New : £166.41 - just over halfway there :-)

    I don't think I'll quite get there. I do have £100 in quidco from purchases this month, but will count that when validated. A few (small!) things on ebay left - hopefully another £20. Have put my breadmaker on netmums - it's taking up room in my cupboard and I make dough by hand now. Some things I just don't want to freecycle! :D (But I have also changed my energy provider and saved £44/ mth in doing so - yippee!)

    I posted some eBay parcels off today and a couple of others are being collected by courier tomorrow so I tallied up the fees & postage and that left £54.51 to add to my total.

    So my new total is £447.22 happy0096.gif

    0.96 Bank Interest & a very shiny penny found in the street + £3.00 LVs from Pinecone.

    I'm way off my target this month. Hardly surprising as I've not exactly been motivated - due in part to my decision not to go on holiday this year with it's theoretical saving of £700, combined with being under-the-weather for the last week or so.

    my total is still £20.80, but i have reedemed £11.05 from topcashback, just waiting for it to hit my bank account and quidco £59.96 but am not counting them until i actually have them in my account,

    We gutted my youngest sons bedroom sunday cause we couldn't physically get in there for all the clutter, i now have 6 black bags of clothes to put on ebay :) quite a few bnwt, so thats my aim today to get a few bits on ebay, not sure yet how i'm going to list, seperate items 99p start or a few bulk listings? what does everyone think? suggestions would be appreciated.
