  • Today's update.
    1. Exchanged a small amount of $ that had been sitting at back of a drawer for £12.30.
    2. Walked in to town instead of driving £3.84 saved re petrol/parking.
    3. Used points for a couple of essentials in Boots for £5.24.
    New total: £96.17/£290

    Two small sales on eBay are due to finish today so assuming prompt payment should have a a bit more to add soon.

    Bit of a rubbish month now as no extra pennies for the last few days :( I will get my act together though!!

    Btw, I was searching for the free calendar that a forum member had created for 2012- it's printable, with lots of MSE-style tips, but I can't for the life of me find it again! Could anyone give me the link please? :)
    :) Optima semper libera sunt :)


  • Has anyone else heard about the paypal mastercard thingy?? More like a pre-paid one, so any money that goes into paypal you can now access with the card. Just wondered if it was worth getting. It would mean i could pay some debt straight away instead of having to transfer to my back account, which always has the risk of me spending it :o

    I've got one. Works great but I can't pay my credit card with it. :( As it's a prepaid credit card, so won't let me pay master card to master card, but otherwise it's great and if you can find a bill you can pay with it all the better, cuts out the middle man so to speak
    You have to start to finish.

    Evening all....

    Back to work today :-( I am thankful I have a job but seriously it is such a hard place to work. I joined a year and a half ago thinking it was something it isn't and instead of helping people I am doing the opposite! Targets, managers emailing at 12.40am on new years day!!!!!!!!! SERIOUSLY!!!!

    ANYWAY!

    Home time!

    I am a bit annoyed at ebay, had someone email me this morning asking to buy an item now, I don't usually do it but they offered a good price so put it up as a buy it now at their request and they have not bought it! grrrr!!!

    Have a few bids though so might be able to count some extra money before the month is out!

    I also emailed Mcains about the survey that kicked me out and I said it was such a long survey to have to start again and they said they will look into it and try to give me the 200 points!

    Also redeemed $5 from superpoints but will see what this is like when it hits paypal... nothing to officially add as yet!

    Hope everyone is doing well.... oh... and some of my keys are sticking and some letters are mixed up (my upwards arrow is a zero now!) due to my tea incident being knocked over my laptop so apolgies for any dodgy words!
