    Puts my £3 of clubcard vouchers to shame ~ but 'every little helps' :cool:

    -s-

    I don't normally have 'luck' (although I am scarred for life thanks to the offending item...) I think every mr T voucher is brilliant. They sure do add up :D and like you say 'every little helps':D

    I am still going to be saving hard as most of it has paid stuff off (spent before the ink was dry!) Still I am a few months nearer to my DFD :T

    Good luck with the challenge everyone...Next month I will probably be the opposite and struggle to achieve my targets...this is my first ever 'successful' target. I did not achieve this months NSD or grocery challenges :o Better luck next month on those I hope

    Morning

    That's brilliant Catherine, it must be a good feeling to be that much nearer your DFD.
    I remember hearing about those settees - nasty!

    I made £9.36 on ebay on Weds and found 2p so new total is £95.27.

    Like eco I have a couple of recalcitrant payers (though they may have just forgotten) so I've just emailed them. Fingers crossed.
    I'm not too bothered if I have have to cancel the transactions but do I lose money?

    Have a good day.
    August Shopping Challenge. 26/8. Budget £250 Spent £256.81.. £6.81 over. So £0.00 a day left.

    Well I just had a nice suprise in my Paypal account. A buyer opened a dispute a few weeks ago as they hadn't received their item, so paypal took the money out of my account while the dispute was active. I had to pay the money into my account so I could use it for other items, and as I'd sent it by standard Airmail I assumed that the money was long gone as there was no tracking details. Low and behold (almost 4 weeks later!) the buyer cancels the dispute so the money has been returned to my account! So I'm now £10.62 better off.
