            I've had a pretty good start to the challenge. This month's total is £617.57!!!! :T
 I admit that £350 was a tax rebate so that won't happen again but it's not a bad way to kick off my total.
 I also got £174 from working overtime. £59 from selling stuff on various websites and £30 worth of freebies, coupons and discounts.
 I've spent a fair amount on christmas this month but thanks to this forum i've saved loads on delivery and sale prices so i'm so pleased!!!
 It's quite a buzz to add it all up and look at the total. Thanks for the challenge Cally!0
