    My top earning tip would be superpoints and swagbucks

    My overall tip is that even if you only make, earn or save £1 in a month then you should give yourself a pat on the back :)

    I totally agree with this.

    Go go everyone! :D

    I feel like i have made a good start to the month. So far I have saved £32.83 on essentials by shopping in the sale and reduced items.
    Also managed to only spend £47.94 at the supermarket this week. Huge savings considering before I started to pay attention to my shopping habits, I spent £100+ every week :eek:. I will keep a tally on how much I spend over the month and add my overall shopping savings up.
    I am promising myself that I will list stuff on e*ay. It is all stuff I was given by a family member so will be splitting any earnings with my sister.

    I had an email about swagbucks today, so I,m gonna look into signing up for that. I know lots of you do it.

    I was also given a lovely home made fruitcake today, so I will be saving on friday night treats. :)

    Been away for a bit and missed the June update, which was a rather feeble £73.42. But the good news is that yesterday I transferred in £350 to my savings pot, which brings up a grand total of £2019.36 for the year so far. :D

    More quidco and ebay still to come, so i'm not done yet :)

    Woohoo, I finally did it. I have listed 21 items on ebay. Still have a few more to go on yet but I may lose the will to live if I dont take a break.
    Just hope some of it sells now.:)

    Another £20 to add from babysitting last night - signature now updated. Only £179 until I'm half-way there. Don't mean to sound depressing, but don't know how realistic it's going to be for me to actually get to the grand total as babysitting has slowed down a lot since I've been pregnant and the eldest child is 13 in a week or so, so will be able to do it herself.
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    I doubt I'll reach £2012 either ... But ... It is great to see what I have been able to do so far and to see it go up slowly each month

    Everyone is doing fantastic so far :)
