    Just a quick note to warn you guys to be wary, I just had an email come through with 'Free £10 Amazon Voucher - Claim Yours Now' as the title.

    I opened it just in case but could see it was from a completely random address and was obviously junk, but it h
    ad not been picked up by Hotmail as junk, and as a lot of us on here do things to earn Amazon vouchers, it might be easy to think Oooh that must be genuine, I wonder which site etc it's from and click through. I would imagine it would have asked for email address and password or something, as a lot of them do knowing people use the same password for lots of sites, including Paypal etc.

    Thanks for adding my Aesop... I love my #100! :D

    A quick question to everyone...

    I have some foreign currency left over from my trip in December... I was planning on spending every last penny but it seems the money saver in me is finally in place!!! I have not counted it in any budget or bill paying etc... and it was money I put aside each month last year. So... now I have exchanged it back into ££..... should I add it to my total of money made for this month?? :cool:

    Any thoughts or opinions..? :):):)

    (I also used my £5 Boots No7 voucher towards some face wipes... so only had to pay £2!).
    9 years and counting

    I would add it, and even better if you put it in your savings pot or pay off something :D

    I have been after some shoes since before Christmas. I was going to get them a bit cheaper, but just found them half price on a site... they're not meant ot be on sale, but I will declare the saving of £30 as I was going to buy them for £90 instead of £120, and got them for £60.:j
