    I haven't had anything to add for a few days but I've got set up to start matched betting this week :)

    I did spot 11p on the pavement the other day but I was too scared to pick it up incase it had been glued down by some school kids!

    just checked through my talktalk statements and they are charging me 3.50 per invoice surcharge even though i dont have paper bills and pay direct debit they are refunding me that £28.90 and just downgraded my package saved me another £1 a month so will add all these to my total

    the moral behind the story is check all your bills telephone sky cable credit card for any hidden charges that you can cut out and if you have bee overcharged get on the phone using a freephone number and sort it out ask them also for compensation for their mix up and money towards your phone call

    they dont know you have rang on the freephone number

    i have just enlightened the talktalk customer services lady to MSE too...another bonus

    Money from share options (I got them for nothing) is through 462.18! Thats after transaction fees and the grant price. So new total is 540.76! Well chuffed!
    CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera. You can enjoy it even if you don't understand it and too much can give you a headache the next day J

    Yipee! :j I have been selected for a focus group on monday in london and I will be paid £60! Lasts 2hrs. I have never done a focus group before, check out focus4people on the first page and keep checking their projects every week or so and if you fit their requirements you have a good shot, I have only fit their requirements twice, but having been looking for long.

    Will update total when I get the cold hard cash in my hands!

    Another 2 books sold on Amazon Marketplace. 6.08 after fees and postage! Think I might upgrade to silver as my aim. Is this ok?

    Well I have just sat here and loaded 71 items onto Amazon. Still got around 30 more books to add but I have had enough for today. The ebay stuff can wait for another day too and I'll need to spread that out so I can manage it. Normally list 10-15 items at a time or I can't cope. :o

    Just to got to sit back now and watch the millions roll in. :rolleyes:
