    Not posted for a while but have some updating to do.

    Just used £25 Mr T clubcard vouchers to purchase 2 £25 iTunes vouchers as gifts (we'll look really generous but will have basically spent no money)
    Also got a refund from Mr S for a meal deal and a wine deal I sent back as some items had been subbed. Expected £22 back but got £40 back so £18 bonus.
    Counted up the change jar this morning and there's £55 to bank today.

    Also received £4 in B00ts voucher for a recent deodrant trial

    £102 in all :)

    Hi all, my april total was £315 saved. It was a difficult month.

    But today was a good day. My other half got another tax rebate dating back to god knows when ( he had 2 last december too) and he said I could have it. Its £370.69. :j
    So I am going to put some of it towards paying off my catalogue and the rest is spending money when we go on hols at the end of the month.
    I am still being strict with my shopping and making savings but I will add that up in a couple of weeks.

    Oh opened an innocuous looking letter last night to find a tax rebate from 8 years ago for £873!! We've just left it on the table and ignored it. Think we're in shock lol. We've done it. £2012 and greatly assisted by two tax rebates, which must be about £1300 .

    Gosh, speechless.

    OK , back in the saddle now mum's estate been settled and dealt with.

    Done some listings on ebay, and may make a couple of bob each week walking friends dogs as they're on 12 hour day shifts.

    Now also need to look for work, not seeing much on the various sites.
    Hopefully, i'll be able to actually increase my total at the end of may since it hasnt moved since february :)

    £11.76 transferred to my 2012 account thanks to interest paid into my current account. First money this month though so I'm well and truly slacking. Mind you I'm now a day overdue so at some point within the next coupla weeks a baby will appear and I'll know whether I can sell all my baby boy stuff or not!

    I have no excuse for my lack of dedication towards the challange, all I can say is sorry to all.
    My only credits have been savings from my wages which over the last two months have been £110.00.
    The month of May will result in the following, start E-baying, Clothes (allready bagged up and ready to cash in) and saving from wages.
    Feeling confident that May will be my best month to date and looking to get myself back on track.

    Therefore:

    January = £79.87
    Febuary = £82.23
    March = £60:00
    April = £50:00
    2012 in 2012 challenge member number 87 "DELL-BOY" total so far £262.10 / £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........
