    Well i've had an amazing week this week. On Monday I did my free scratchie and won £100!!! I couldn't believe it! :jIt hit my account today with my other scratchie accumulations making £109.00! :jPlus I have £15.48 to add from tiki and an extra £30 OT so i've had an excellent week so far and it's not even over yet. I did treat my OH to tea with my winnings so that's £23.00 i've reduced the total by but i'm over the moon with my luck! So my total now is £205.48 and i'm determined to make my £310 target this month, must get cracking! :D

    Woo Hoo!!
    Another £21 transferred from Paypal - mainly ebay sales plus survey.
    Plus £23 from JPJ - you've gotta love tiki!
    Plus a win on the bingo last night, £87.50 transferred to my bank account. Technically free bingo 'cos I played with my free scratchie money.
    So...for the first time ever - I've gone over my target!! And I've still got some month left to see how far I can get.

    Plus another £10 ebay sale.
    Sell £1000 challenge - £0/£1500 - No.80

    YNAB - take control of your money :)
