BOGOF £12.30 - stocking up storecupboard ready for baby's arrival!

£9.25 using coupons

Saved 60p by listing on eBay on a 10p listing day rather than paying full listing fees

Also made about 80p from selling my stuff on Amazon. Not going to get rich quick but at least the house is less cluttered.

Saved £3.50 on P&P at Book People using a discount code and picked up the set of Richard & Judy recommended paperbacks for £9.99! I also ordered a selection of 30 greetings cards for £7.99.

Received a free paperbook to review for Waterstones.

Lost track of my savings these past couple of weeks...Had a baby boy last weekend so everything has gone to pot!

The savings that I can remember since my last post include:

£1 extra credit on my free 02 sim card
£36.25 cashback from www.quidco.com
£26 on nursing bras in the Mothercare sale
£67.70 by shopping around for car insurance rather than staying with my current insurer (Should also get £120 cashback from Quidco in a couple of months)

Total - £130.95

I take it some of these are a joke

My total savings for 2007 so far: £816.51
This includes Quidco for myself and OH, Pigsback for myself and OH, savings from free movie previews, savings on grocery challenges, savings from moving from BT to Virgin (will be £120 for the year), Halifax bonus for OH for switching bank (mine will come in 6 weeks time), online survey money, etc.

To add to that will be:
£100 Halifax money soon
£159+ from clicking links on cashback sites (not yet cashed in)
£100ish per month on grocery savings etc

And as much other stuff as we can manage - I fully expect our money saving lessons learnt will save us over £1600 this year alone.
