Hi everyone
February has not started off that great, total for January £200 off the mortgage but I am waiting on £40 from Onepoll nearly at £10 from Mysurvey and I have £30 in cash and £22 cheque that I still need to pay in so that is another £100. I won a mascara and a baby thing a while ago which I really should put on Ebay along with some cds which might bring in another £50 after everything. £11000 seems so far away! I think I will feel happier when I hit £500 as that is quite a mile stone but not sure what I have left to sell apart from the catDebt Free - done

Ive got a £25 refund from the DVLA i can add to my pot (they messed up my v5 and made me pay for two) so i can bank that
Ive found a mini-challenge on quidco where the challenge is to save £1k this year through cashbacking and vouchers, i dont think i will make £1k but i will give it a go...!

Well the cat has had a mahoosive fight tonight and may incur another vet bill
and this month is expensive for birthdays with lil sons tomorrow kicking it off...so yet again I am paying out and not making it! :mad: LOL well apart from the fact that Topcashback have very kindly reinstated my dormant account..............which has a grand total of £10.58 in :rotfl::rotfl:but I'm not including it in my total yet............only cold hard cash gets counted for me
Talking of which I am sick of my students just throwing their lose change around on the floor as they don't like it or want to carry it around (where the HELL do they get this frivolous attitude from??).....so I've decided to go round collecting it up - I'm going to see how much I find in a year, although the cleaners will suffer
but they are getting paid more than me

Aww Savvy that's gorgeous!
I've got a £10ish cheque waiting to be banked for expenses I assumed I wasn't getting back so that's to be added to the pot! i think I'm at £236 including this but like lots of you, it's no sooner in my hand than its back out again0 -

Aye, it's soooooooo frustrating when you really really want to make money but it's flying out on things you didn't even think would happen!!! :mad:Honorary Northern Bird bestowed by AnselmI'm a Board Guide and volunteer to help get your forum questions answered and keep the forum running smoothly on Special Occasions, Green/Ethical, Motoring/Overseas/UK Travel & Flood boards, it's not part of my role to deal with reportable posts.

Evening!
Managed to pick up an extra shift on Sunday just gone for the old firm game. So an additional 5 hours!! Also got a wee Sunday shift next week aswell cos I'm covering for someone. Roughly £70 for each weekend which isn't too bad!
Doing really well at not spending money. Was in Tesco's earlier and spent £22 but £10 of that was nappies. Apart from that all I bought was bread, milk, rolls, bagels. No unneccessaries!
Looks like the clubcard vouchers have been issued aswell. Already got £8.50 so I'm just going to save them up for Xmas or the next double up promotion.
Not looking forward to Wednesday when this informal investigation turns formal. I know that I've done nothing wrong but its still annoying!! :mad:. I know who made the allegation aswell :rotfl:. The only bonus is that if it does go 'formal' then I get suspended with full pay :T. Oh the vileness of some people!!0 -

Morning all
Woke up to a second payout from CIAO of £5.21 today which goes into the total and booked a few more mystery shops for the weekend. Much slower month than januaray but still ticking over0 -
Hi guys,
busy week this week, overtime is available at work so me and OH are alternating late shifts and are working for a couple hours on saturday before going to the pics. Should get at least £100 which is ACE!!
Also have a Mystery shop tomorrow night, which will be our date! Another one on Monday during the day, I am off anyway so that's great.
Other than that, have had a couple sales on ebay which I am splitting with DS so will probably be about £10 after fees, will add that in later!

Oh dear, I think I have messed up my countings lol
Didnt add OT into my totals, and said that I will do it when I transfer it over to the wedding fund, But because I also PAD, taht will work out as 2 payments of the same dam thing lol
Need to work out the figures now and add them to the total, remembering to deduct them from the end of month PAD. Is that the best way? Not too sure now lol
