2007 Olympic Challenge

Just updated my sig - have added the 5 x £14.99 I'll be saving from cancelling my lovefilm account, as well as £10 I just saved by using Nectar points in Argos (desperately needed garden furniture cover and a wrestling figure for DS' birthday on Monday) and £4.57 from another amazon sale and postage profit on ebay items (unintentional but welcomed!)

I've been to the bank this morning to try and get them to reduce my overdraft rates (actuially I asked them to match the alliance and leicester's 0% overdraft but they weren't having it!) and they've agreed to half it from 18.soething to 9.something %, which should save me around £10 a month. Can I count that?

And he's off!

£10 Pigsback voucher in my hand - here goes...

Finally sold another book on Amazon (my moan must of been heard somewhere ) only a 1p book but will cost very little to post so that's good (and it was a free book too) - will update after I've posted it.

OH found some coins on his desk while tidying he'd 'saved' because they had 'pretty' patterns on them but they're now in our piggy bank for counting later.

Also listed 17 books on green metropolis - very easy to list on there (all the ones its not worth putting on Amazon) so hoping some will sell.

Got an ebay pile here too to sort.

Love the newsletter WOA - thanks for the mention :T

Just sold a couple more bits on ebay, so that's it for this week. Will update my sig shortly.

Well I've got a couple things on ebay now, more to come, but dear partner ran off trainspotting for the afternoon with my digital camera!

Had a very good week on Amazon so will update my signature once the money is in my bank.

Got a few things ending on ebay tomorrow. Hoping that is going to super boost my savings. I have five things selling, currently totalling £141.50!!!
Hoping things will shoot up some more. Got loads of watchers.

At last.....I can add to my total. I have swapped some M&S vouchers I received from Valued Opinions surveys with my Mum for the cash....she shops in M&S so can make good use of them and I can add the cash to my challenge total...yippee!!!!!!!!

finallydebtfree!!

my quidco money now says paid!!! yay, now just have to wait for it to reach my account, can I count this now or shall I wait till its in my account? is there likely to be any problems? the cash back is £8 (-£5 admin as its my first ever payment!) from churchill for my travel insurance for my holiday in sept, I want to count it as it will take me over £100, but if there is any problems then Ill have to take it off again! suppose its no different than counting my amazon money before it hits my account.

What do you guys think?

Well I made over £50 from ebay and amazon this week, which surprised me (in a good way). So have updated my sig. Have a couple more bits on ebay, lots of books that don't seem to be selling on amazon and a market research job for next week. I'm on strike on Wednesday next week, so must make some money to compensate!
