    Not quite sure how this happened, but have reached this months target already! :p

    Cr0wd0logy £3-92 and 2 wins on a Games offer, makes £18-52 for me to add.:T

    Will carry on though and see how much I can exceed it by - if this sounds at all smug it's cos I am! Hope everyone else has a good month money making :D

    Hi Lolly!!

    Virtual change is basically moving small amounts of money that you wouldn't really notice from online banking to the challenge which helps top it up.

    Sometimes I transfer enough to make the online account a round number or sometimes I transfer enough to make the challenge a round number - yesterday I needed £1.48 to make the amount saved £250 so I transferred that amount over if you see what I mean!?

    Every little helps :)

    Hi Tina :) I love the sound of that, I sometimes do something similar - using any leftover money at the end of the week to pay off debts. I think I'll probably start my own virtual pot once I've paid them all off (shouldn't be too long now!) as it would be lovely to have a bit of cash saved up in case I need it.


    Well I've got £10 to add today - had two discounts on my BT bill (one for the broadband and one for BT Vision).
    My monthly bill has gone down as well, although I'm not adding that. My contract was due to end this month so they rang me trying to get me to renew my contract, I told them I was planning on leaving them (wouldn't have) and they started to knock things down. Carried on refusing as said that I could get the broadband and phone cheaper elsewhere and they ended up knocking about 1/3 off my total bill for the next 12 months :T TBH, I don't care if I can get it cheaper elsewhere or not as I love BT Vision, so would have carried on my subscription regardless :D

    (£66.78/£310)

    Congratulations Lellybun!!! :j

    Been MIA for a few days as had my mum here :) Still, have been on with the challenge and very pleased with my totals so far....£46.38 fleabay, £30 expenses, got more but have taken off what I used in Petrol, and £2.09 interest from my savings. So £78.47 to add :j

    Very pleased with my start so far. Wondering what else I can find as I have managed to get rid of lots of our clutter and unneeded stuff now. Off work all next week so will get my thinking cap on

    Xx

    Hi Guys,
    I Love love LOVE reading about how everyone is making extra money. Roadkill is my new favourite term, I have always been one to pick up the pennies, much to the amusement of my friends.

    I have a few things to sell on ebay, so I am going to set them all uo ready to go and then wait until there is a free listings weekend :D I have £48 from 2nd job to add, and hopefully I will be getting lots of overtime with my main job soon, as i will be covering shifts for people at another store, it is walking distance from home so no travel costs either, woop woop.

    I actually thought this was going to be really hard to do, but its suprisingly easy. i will have to make sure that i do 10 a day next month. Hoping to make lots of tips at work tonight to add to the total. ;)
    Don't turn a slip up into a give up:D

    Debt-free and Proud!
    Right then, i just did another car boot sale and sold any item for 50p - its all the left over stuff from other car boots so its really getting down to the bottom of the barrel now - even so i managed to make another £23.85 profit - the extra 25p was extra change that i was given :)

    I have also just added up all my wee odds and ends of money - money box, paypal account etc and i now have a grand total of £64.69 to pay off my bill! Oh its now going to be off my mortgage arrears cos i found out i could apply for rates relief to pay off my arrears with them - how fab is that :)

    Oh i am not sure if anyone needs any advice about survey sites etc - if so i have been reviewing some for a while now in my blog and can make some suggestions for anyone that is just starting out on the survey trail :)

    Might go hunting for roadkill now LOL!

    Hope everyone is enjoying the challenge??
