    Hi all,
    Finally received my charges refund from Halifax which has taken me over the target :) - was umming whether to include it or not but it is extra money and has took me about a year of fighting them to get it so think I will do. Am also up to £165.39 now in matched betting which am very happy about - think might be a bit braver and try some of the bigger bonuses now as well. Am going to keep going with the challenge and see how much I can up to - is all going in my 'debt fund' to try and get a full and final settlement for my old mortgage.

    Well, quiet few days for me, not at work today or tomorrow so that has saved me about £40 in fuel (although wont add that!), checked my Boots card and I have £8.95 so may need to use that for some holiday bits and bobs, but might hang on to it! Also, nearly got enough on my Worldpoints card to get a £5 voucher for when we go on holiday (airport shopping vouchers)

    As the weather is awful here might spend some time later ebaying.. or might just light the log burner and snuggle up! :rotfl:

    Just waiting to work out my ebay fees for the stuff I sold at the weekend before i add them to my signature!

    £259-10 for me to to add. Payment from hosting students. (I certainly earned that this time - they were very sweet, but at the same time very hard work!) Nice to have the house back now, and receiving the money makes it all worthwhile :)

    If any of you have a b!ngo account with Foxy, log in and play the "everyones a winner" game - its free for all users and I just won 25p to play with. You get the money in b!ngo points so you can convert into playing credits. You never know you might win something with it, I have on a couple of occasions before

    Thank you for this information, i had an account an not used it for a while as no credit, but just done this and got 75p :T
  • A few things to add from the past week:
    £2.50 homemade wine savings
    £25 premium bond win
    £7.71 Amazon book sale
    £1.23 Quidco
    £2.44 from old Barclays savings accounts I kept meaning to close and finally did
    £0.98 refund from Tesco for a lemon that had gone off... refunded entire pack of 3 even though only one lemon bad, so this is the amount that I am in pocket

    ...bringing my total to £73.15

    Have exchanged £95 of Tesco clucard coupons into £142.50 E.On tokens. Have called E.On and had my direct debit reduced to £10, so that will be £40 saved at the end of the month, which I will count then.

    Also redeemed 6000 Maximiles into £20 of Sainsburys vouchers; will add those when they arrive.

    Hopefully will make my target this month! :)
