Evening All, hope you're all well
Have sold some old shares I've forgotten about which should give me roughly £700 to add to the kitty when it's all gone through :beer:
Am going to save the rest of my ebay stuff for next month methinks when things have quietened down a wee bit

Lucky you! I actually found some old share certificates the other day & although I haven't actually rung up anywhere to confirm it, I am pretty sure that two of them relate to companies that went bust and the third although still going, has a part of the certificate missing & I am presuming that this was the section necessary if you cashed them in so basically just 3 worthless certificates for me alas!

minnie maybe you should have a look on the frugal boards or debt free wannabee,i've joined and for the whole of january have spent so far roughly £210 where i would easily blow £400 in asda alone no wii games,cd,dvds or takeaways dont know if you do all this already if you do i'll think of something else

minnie i thought that last year and ended up saving and making £5500 . the thing is thats there is no right way to do it ,and i coverted my oh to quidco who now tells ev1 about it he currently has £450 in an account due to this lol .it took me a while to find my feet last year and although i bought stuff from ebay i never tried selling ,dont know if i'm happy with selling fees might just stick to bootys but then its table and petrol oh says i must do it properly this year and is not half as scathing about my virtual pals we all found our niche and for some they just found themselves but the dribblers are a happy bunch .think they are trying not to dribble too much at the minute to let the newbies settle in . hope this helps x

Minnie I wasn't sure what to do last year or how but I ended up about halfway there. Still not sure how.lol
This year is different again and I am still not sure what or how but its funny how things crop up either on the thread or in real life and give you a new avenue or idea.
Don't worry too much if you are not sure where to go next but be open and ready to go when new ideas pop up that make sense to you.

Up to you.

I am not including savings or each like as its my money anyway so Im not technically making an extra 11k if I simply cut costs of other things. I am only counting money I made in addition to the wage I get at the end of each month

hmmm, I see what you are saying. I think I will include the gym membership as I work for the council and they deduct it out of my pay packet so I've never had it 'in my hand' so to speak.....and I won't count the magazine subscription because that seems different......well in my head it seems different! :rotfl:

little tiny if you no longer buy it you could add that amount to your savings as you have saved it ,there are no rules some people actually need the cash literally in the bank as a deposit ect ,i used my money that i saved /made as i went for holidays presents ect without having to go without as i would have before if you see what i mean
