  • My final total for jan 2012 thanks to ebay is a lovely fat £352.78 smashing my target of £155. :j I am looking forward to the Feb challenge now as I need a big fat savings account so we can buy our first home. Every bit helps. I also need less stuff so we can buy smaller than we currently rent too ( sadly we can never afford a house as big as one we currently rent ) Well done this month everyone and see you all in the Feb challenge. xxx

    £18.86 to add today from a little matched bet. Saved just over £11 in Tesco on the shopping with coupons etc, but difficult to work out true savings as there was a couple of bits I wouldn't have bought if I hadn't of had a coupon, but then again I would have had to get something else instead.
    Definitely adding £4 though, as managed to get away with using a voucher for some nappies that I hadn't actually bought in the end as they'd been out of stock, but I genuinely forgot when I gave it to the assistant in my pile of bits of paper! So I've transferred that £4 off the Credit Card :)

    Oh and after selling No CDs / DVDs on Amazon for months now, all of a sudden I've had 3 emails to say I've sold 3 CDs all in the last few days!

    Now if only I knew where the bleedin' things are since we moved!! :o

    Todays the day; Panel to decide my fate as a foster carer is at 11.30. Not looking forward to it at all, my social worker supposidly has no clue to which way it will go. Well, whatever happens, happens.

    My Grandad passed away yesterday morning and my Mum is quite upset. She's with my Grandma in Scotland for a few days so it hasnt really sunk in for me yet, funeral is next week so I'll have to drop children off in Wiltshire with my Dad, drive to Fife then back to Wiltshire and Devon the next day...a round trip of 20hrs! :eek:

    Wish me luck for today!
    £20k in 2023 = £2718 £2023 in 2023 = £196.41 Grocery challenge £250= £195.80 **MONEY MAKES ME HAPPY**
