Hi,

would you mind if I joined in? £3,000, if I can do it, would pay off my credit card in full so this may be the motivation I need!

count me in too

how about to help the people that are working or perhaps have less time that we do 3 levels of membership gold the £3000 silver £2000 and bronze £1000
members can opt in for whatever level of membership at begining of challenge and the monthly targets are adjusted accordingly

what does everyone else think??just and idea to help more people join

Annie - I was looking at the gift sets tonight and couldn't work out the best way to use the coupons. I liked the lavender baskets for £7.50 and the Magnolia pots for £7.50. Am I right in thinking I should buy 3 to get the best value from the vouchers.

Yeah then total would be £22.50 - effectively you could use 1x £5 (mail) 2x£2.50 H&B, 5x£1 H&B toiletries, 5x50 pointer, then £7.50 of your choice
Are they on buy 3 get cheapest free? that would be even better.

Basically I would do as above and use a £5 somerfield and a couple of quick reads and pay 50p for the lot - that's if I can get one of my nice cashiers. I do a check now when I go in to see who is on - this decides the level of my shopping:D

Wow - you were up late last night Annie! Thanks for explaining the vouchers - I really didn't understand it until I saw that.

Do you always buy other stuff too when you go in Tesco's or do you literally walk in and get 22.50's worth of stuff and pay pennies for it?

I've still got a few things on ebay which finish tomorrow night and am looking in to getting some more french translation (it's just finding the time to fit it in). I've not actively been doing anything since last weekend because of this silly bug.

The 3k Challenge starting 6th Jan 07 has now got 8 participants: Annie, jpet, jpwhittle, SoScrooge, freebird65, Wilf 55, Andy R, BangraMonkey.

Does anyone else want to join us?

I think the Gold/Silver/Bronze rating sounds great but would be too hard to coordinate all in one thread.

Off to check ebay sales and get my Dad to put a bid in on something that's got watchers but isn't selling...

Luv Jxxx
