£10 from scratchies!!
Plus, and bear with me on this one, £11.02
We were invited to a civil partnership celebration with the instruction to dress up in the style of moulin rouge or with a twist of tartan!
Thought the tartan was a safer bet!
Bought a tartan skirt... not a pretty sight given I'm a 'big lass':rotfl: but I was desperate!
On the day, Tuesday, called into factory shops and bought 5 yards of tartan ribbon and found some tartan tights!
So I have taken back the skirt for a refund and I'm so proud of myself I am counting the difference of £12.02!
Must say that I was amazed that I managed to fit into one size tights!!!
So after that very long explaination I am adding £22.02 today:j

So far i have recieved a £10 from cp and claimed a £20 cheque from mutual points (not expecting that till nov tho as they dont process payments till end of the month). OH has got some o/t money due next week too about £100 ish so that'll certainly come in handy.£387.39/£196.46

Well I am annoyed. I went to Lidl's with the sole purpose of spending £30 to stock up fridge and cupboards and use £5 off £30 spend. DS was being pure hell in shop and so naughty I got distracted. Shopping came to only £28.84, I could have grabbed 2 99p things at till, to take me over £30 and then I would have saved £5, which meant free dinner tomorrow and 4pts milk....
I was so frustrated, just didn't think. Then I tried to give voucher to a couple who looked like they were spending over £30 and they didn't speak English and looked angry, so just gave voucher and walked away. Thought if they use it, they have saved money, if they don't oh well..

Won £13.50 on bingo tonight so here is the totals so far.
£100 from Supercheque
£100 from Overtime
£61 from Penny Jar
£40 from selling Euros/Dollars
£13.50 from Bingo
Total is 314.50 out of 310 so I have already completed my £10 a day challenge and we are only on the 2nd day :eek:
I think this will be quite an exceptional month, however I would like to up the anti to £15 a day e.g £465.£4000 in 2011 - £48.88/£40000 -
