Morning everyone
Started the day off by hopefully getting £5 from Quidco. I got my free credit report from Equifax (and made a note to cancel it before they charge me). Not very good reading - it was covered in red. Still, that is what I am trying to change. In 5 years time, it will ALL be green.
I've done a couple of surveys too and am up to £34.60 on Onepoll. By the end of the day, I will also come up with another way to get £100.

I received a late birthday card in the post today from my friend. She put a scratchcard in it and I won a fiver :T. So I have put that in the pot to pay off my mum. I think I'm going to save up and give it to her in chunks of £100 so I know where I stand.
I'm going to let that start a 'miscellaneous' category which I will make up to £100, one way or another. I have devised a spreadsheet with the targets on there and how much I have left to get in each category.

Picked OH up from the train station earlier and didn't have time for something to eat. We had nothing in and he soon went off in his car as he has to be at work super early tomorrow so is being put up in a hotel.
So I went off in search of food. I fancied a KFC, but resisted and got some stuff from the supermarket to make my own 'EFC' which was just as good and half the price.
After that, I got the most amazing email from Pap (again, you are an angel :A) which has also boosted my bed fund enormously.
I did another offer on Quidco which is now tracking £12. I figure the sooner I do the offers, the sooner they will pay out. I also did a few Yougov surveys, but I don't think I can count on getting enough to get to £50 before the end of the 100 day challenge - I only have 1075 points.
Going to have a think about another way to get £100

Morning everyone
Even when I can have a lie-in, I can't seem to. Woke up at 6.30am and tried to get back to sleep, but just couldn't. Damn my body clock.
My mum's pot has grown to £15 now as I got through the £10 that I won on JJ the other week. Only £85 to go and I can give her a first instalment.
I added another column on my spreadsheet, just called 'surveys'. I joined up to at least 5 sites last night and will keep looking out for more (in fact, just earned £2 on a survey).
Lots to do today so will be back later.

Done loads of surveys today - but that's good as it means more money in the bed fund/mum fund for me
. Only £4.45 to go on Onepoll and I'm up to £13.34 on Quidco.
My sister had a scan today and the baby is doing well.
Off to do a Yougov survey
