    Declaring at £325,61, it was tough going for a while but it is made up of savings, including 25% off clothes at FMW (now I have two new cardigans and two new tops - my wardrobe is now complete). I also invoiced some work that I had done:j

    Hi Everyone - another £16 to add from m@tched betting and would like to declare my total for May as
    £650-38:j

    A good month for me - with backdated overtime also due which will boost June's total. Heres to hoping June is a good month for everybody :)

    Some last minute additions for me, £15.25 eBay sales, £3.78 loose change and £8.98 in the Virtual Sealed Pot challenge, which I've just joined. Total saved is £144.26, so I missed my target by £10.74.
    I'm happy with that though, because the savings I've made in April and May amount to £300.22, which is great. I love this challenge!!
    Well done everyone

    £10 in whoopsies and other Asda savings yesterday plus a free £2.99 pair of football socks for DS as JJB had a three for two sale on.
    So I'm declaring at £170 for May.

    See you in June everyone.

    Since last post I've got £16.43 from eb*ay, and a £10 bag of 50ps to pay in so I'm declaring at £145.70/£155 which I'm very pleased with.
    Thanks to Aesop and everybody on this thread for getting me moving. I'll be back for June which is my birthday month :j , not that I'm counting my chickens!
