    Well I never thought I'd hear it in our house but we're starting to get fed up of pizza :eek: That's 2 pizza mystery shops within a week now, wouldn't be so bad if you had the full range of choice:rotfl: Can't complain tho, it will be another £14 in the pot! :D

    nikki - hope all those watchers bid for you. seen gypsy wedding last series, would love to know just how much they spend on those "creations!!!!!"
    So would I, but I think we can safely say a small fortune and a lot more than a standard wedding dress with all the 'detail' that goes on them.......and considering she never discloses how much they cost, I think that says it all really ;);)

  • Hi guys, cashback tracked for xbox - £2.05

    Silly amount really but it all helps. I also realised that there is other funds in my cashback account that have not actually been paid yet so I will also add that onto my total. i would rather add as they track than when the money gets paid. So the total is actually £10.02 ono my target.

    YAY!!

    GOTL x
    Wedding, CC and Loan by May2012 Target - £35 a day
    Starting 21/01/11 Total so far added to savings - £2316.15 (£82 a day) :j
    #1280 sealed pot - £58.57 £11k in 2011 - £981.10/£11,000
  • morning all!

    ive had some cashback track for the new wardrobes i ordered last night,not very MSE but we can sell the other ones we have and put that money in the pot. Yet another car boot sale planned for the weekend and i have an ebay day planned for tomorrow so i can list my items for 10 days and have two weekends of exposure and if ive done my maths well,they should finish for sunday.

    OH has gone to pick up the new car today so im on my own this morning :( still,i can have a few cheeky games of bingo :D

    Hope everyone has good day!
    ;)

    hi ev1 well well done hales although agree with above take it and run lol glad everything is going well .son got booted out of football team age 8 for not being good enough which is a joke however i have moved training so instead of 24 a month i will be £30 every 3 months so now £42 up every 3 months or £168 a year and he seems happy with new arrangement the boy just wants to play footie.i will also get £30 deposit back for strip so we are going to cinema this weekend as requested by kids.
    tree cut down and the guy made logs for our chimnea he says if we store then dry for a year then we will be able to use them.
    the frugal living is going well this is the first week i've hit the £100 mark however back to home cooking will do better next week.
    away out to sort garden bought some seeds for my bucket garden so going to clear brambles and try and put the buckets in place .need to charge the hedge trimmer and secure the garden for the dog feel good having lists to work through .
    good luck ev1 elly
    So finally debt free and it feels amazing however continuing here to stay debt free.Next declutter house and body and finally swim under that waterfall x

    Firstly I just wanted to say how poor that is at that age, unless he was in Premier League football academy! :eek: That seriously shouldn't happen in any team at that age unless they are an elite team at the top of the spectrum, it's all about participation at that age and it's very short sighted of a club to let players go in these economic times. Although I have to say, I'm not overly surprised in football with the 'old school thinking' still in powerful positions :( He's best out of that ethos ;)

    Is that instead of pots as such? I'm considering planting again this year, had to miss last year due to massive problems here, and using the pots I already have of the dead things that I killed last year :o

    Hi all,
    Made a little bit more on ebay today which was good but at this rate I won't make 1100! I think I need a mini challenge or some thing! (Maybe just a swift kick up the behind!) Going to try to add up what I have already made so I can keep a proper track of the extra money I make!
    Can any one confirm that quidco actually pays out with the £20 gala cashback?

    Every one seems to be doing so well, Keep it up! I love reading this thread and seeing every ones new money making ideas.

    yes got the plastic buckets from freecycle someone says you can pick them up from morrisons well have to drill holes in the bottom due to the rain we get .the guy at falkirk stadium says the training in the local teams is often wreckless given the childs age and at 8 once a week is enough .
    ive phoned for piano tuning only 60 we budgeted 100 as we had no idea what this would cost going to do bootsale this weekend so hopefully i will cover it
    So finally debt free and it feels amazing however continuing here to stay debt free.Next declutter house and body and finally swim under that waterfall x
  • I won £500 at bingo nearly passed out :rotfl::rotfl: after sharing with my dad and paying for the night out itself made about £200 profit my first ever big win at bingo :T

    Saying that im taking ym total back down to 0. I am personally only counting what I bank and we have just heard back that we can finally put aheadstone down for my brother in law and my partners gran so that has eaten into our savings and my fund.

    I will build it all back up again and glad we are able to finally get them done a bit of closure in a way so I am going to crack on and get making again wd to everyone doing so well xxx
