    Hiya jo_b - well done so far! That's a nice amount on Quidco, eh ;o)

    All I have to report is £9.19 has come through from Ciao - still money for nothing really and it does all add up x

    Sold another book on Greenmet. (Actually sold it a few days ago but didn't receive the email but that's another story!) :rolleyes:

    Could have sold another but, embarrassingly, its one that I sold on Amazon last week and forgot to remove from Greenmet. :o

    Made £2.30 on this one anyway! ;)

    Had a good few days selling my old books:

    Made £2.40 selling on www.greenmetropolis.com and £32.84 selling on Amazon. :j

    Also received £20 worth of Boots vouchers from Pigsback today and saved £3.94 on multisaves/BOGOFs on my shopping. :)

    Off to Blackpool tomorrow.... :cool:

    Got back from our weekend away to discover that the site was down! :mad:

    Now it's back to normal, I've been using the site to make a start on my Christmas shopping.

    I've bought 4 boxes of half-price Thorntons chocolates, saving £24.

    Used a discount code for free p&p, saving £3.50

    Ordered a pressie from ebuyer for OH (can't say what in case he reads this!) used Google Checkout to get a £10 discount

    I'm so impressed with my savings/discounts today alone that I feel a bit mean only being able to give £5 to the Meningitis appeal, as featured in this week's Money Tips Email. Hope it reminds other people to give a little something back and reach the £5000 target. :)

    Got Quidco money in my account today - £30.88

    Also used £16 worth of vouchers from Bounty packs in Asda today and got a load of freebies from the Weaning Bounty pack and the Family Essentials pack. :D

    Last week, my cheap subscription copies of magazines arrived.
    She mag (saving £2 off RRP)
    Easy Living (saving £1.70)
    Practical Parenting (saving £2.37)

    I've also joined in the November Make £10 a day Challenge over on the Debt Free Wannabe board. It's keeping me motivated to keep up the daily clicks and try to maximise my earnings from cashback sites! :cool:

    Did some Christmas shopping yesterday at Boots using Advantage card points! :j Saved £39.98 in hard cash! :D

    Also used some parenting club vouchers worth £1.25 as I'm planning to start weaning my baby in the next few days/weeks.

    Lastly my Boots trip earned me two free miniatures worth £3.28 in total. :cool:

    Today, a quick Morrisons shop saved £1.28 as Loyd Grossman sauces are on offer. I really need to stock up on those as we use at least a jar a week and the multibuy offer's on until 18th Nov.

    Just earned £13.28 profit on Free Bingo Sites :D

    Also made £1.07 earlier in the week from Deal or No Deal at Gala Bingo! :rotfl:
  • Hi jo_b - sorry haven't been about! I got £51 from Quidco last month which has gone towards my lovely warm new winter coat which was £59, so it only cost me £8 - thank you Quidco!

    End of this month I have £100 coming from Quidco and should have around £60 from E2Save, which will be fab.

    My latest daily cashback clicks total is pretty good too ;o))) How are you managing with it jo_b? Cashback Chief offer £20 cashback for a £10 spend with Mecca Bingo, so I did that on my and my hubbys account and both have tracked - £20 for nothing and passed my payment level at the same time...

  • Great savings jo_b and EagerLearner!

    Isn't it lovely to get something for nothing?:j

    Am Quidco'd out at the moment but am about to try the Bingo sites in the hope of copying your successes.

    Keep up the good work

    Mecca isn't on Quidco but it is on www.topcashback.co.uk. They're offering £30 cashback for a £10 spend, so I'll put that on my to-do list! :D

    Thanks for the info and encouragement.
