    Just ordered £10 Amazon voucher from Ipsos Access Panels :) Pending cashback on Quidco is £15.30. None of my items on ebay have had any bids yet but there's still a couple of days to go on them all so still hoping! My February total was abysmal but I'm hoping to do better this month.

    Edit: Also very excited that today I passed the first £100 mark! Haha better late than never eh?!

    Just £5 to add from Swagbucks. :)

    How do you get Swagbucks to pay out in £'s? I joined up to the .co.uk site but my payment was for $5? Also, how many swagbucks for £5.

    Also, does everyone just cash in as soon as they reach £5/$5. Just wondering, as you seem to use less swagbucks (pro rata) for higher payouts

    Any thoughts?

    Evening all

    Just thought I'd catch up and say Hello. I've not had a chance to post up my Feb totals, my spreadsheet is on my work's PC and I've been out and about most of the week. It's on my 'to do' list for Monday. I think Feb was a good month for me - mostly down to cashing in from the Cashback site, but no idea what I'm going to do now.

    Now Spring is on it's way, my wardrobe is looking in need of a revamp so might ebay off some of last year's stuff that I know I won't wear this year.

    I did save £13 in Boots the other day with all their multibuys - but it did mean me spending £31 in doing so!! All essentials, of course. ;)

    The survey's are picking up after setting my accounts back up again, so hopefully I'll have enough to cash in by the end of next month.

    Well again I didnt place anything on e-bay yet but have loads to list. My aim is to list 10 items a week and get my backside into gear lol.
    Done well with saving thou £82.23 and picked up a load of scrap to be weighed in when my mate comes up from down south.
    Feeling confident that March will be a bumper month so fingers x.

    Therefore:

    January = £79.87
    Febuary = £82.23
    2012 in 2012 challenge member number 87 "DELL-BOY" total so far £152.10 / £2012

    Great to see so many of you motivated and doing well with the challange, stay posative and keep up the good work and wishing you all the very best. Take care........

    Another £20 from babysitting last night, so I can start my March total now. I'm babysitting again tonight for the same family, so more on the way too. :)
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    Good start to March... Got a mailing through from tesco which this week gave me £7 off a £50 spend, on my way home from work yesterday I picked up free Tesco brochure left on the train and it had vouchers, managed to use another £5 off them. This along with a McCains Chips 85p voucher...

    Got home from the shopping trip to find a letter from Virgin Trains refunding £20 for a delayed train...

    So far that's £33.15 this month in vouchers and refund only!

    I've got a good feeling about March - plenty more in the pipeline! :beer:

    Hi all
    Just declared my Feb total at £513.87.

    Sold at the NCT Nearly New Sale today. Think I have made around £180 so will add that when I get the cheque. Got some cashback in the pipeline and an Am*zon sale. I keep wondering where next money will come from and then suddenly something happens. Like this month I have qualified for clothing allowance at work, go me, so I will be saving that each month now, only £16.67 but all helps.

    Keep up the savings everyone.
