Hi
This morning I banked £20 of £2 coins, £10 of 20p coins and £1 of 1ps. I know this is not technically making money but it forces me to save and I wouldn't have had it put away otherwise.
I also withdrew £9.40 from T*pcashback.
So total so far this month is £40.40.
On the horizen I have an As*a price check to do, about £12.50 of Nectar points which I will probably spend in a Sa*nsbury shop next week, and am half way to a McC*ins voucher but that will probably be March. Eb*y's a bit lean atm but I have got some things to list if I could be bothered which hopefully I will be soon.
Good luck to everybody for February!August Shopping Challenge. 26/8. Budget £250 Spent £256.81.. £6.81 over. So £0.00 a day left.0 -
Happy February all! Nothing for me yet - I got caught up in signing up to all sorts of things this morning (Free20quid anyone?!?) and one of the cashback things I did was for a free trial on a credit check. Well seeing as I was interested anyway - I gave it a go.......my god! Depressing or what??!?!?!!?
It gave me the most rubbish rating possible, and said it was probably because I missed payments all the time an might even have been pursued through the courts! Considering I have only had two late payments in my LIFE and do everything via direct debit, I must admit to being not only a little confused, but also a little concerned :-S
Hopefully all my money making that I'm getting in to from being on here will help me get rid of all the debt asap though so they can all see I have lots of money in the bank instead??!£10 a day July 2012 £0 / £290 £10 a day May 2012 £157.08 / £310 £10 a day April 2012 £406.11 / £300 £10 a Day March 2012 £327.59 / £310 £10 a Day Feb 2012 £297.07 / £290 £10 a Day Jan 2012 £390 / £310 :j0 -

Hi all
Not sure if i put it on the thread last month but i ended up with a huge shortfall in jan - meaning i had to borrow money to cover my billsSo i'm using as much of my extra income on here to pay that back first. Biggest bill i had was car repairs :mad:
Anyways off to quite a good start (considering i've £580 to pay back within the next 10 days :eek:) as i got some money i'm owed £52 ( i only count this as this is from a large sum of money i stupidly loaned to family years ago - didn't get anything for a looong time - now i get little bits now and then so i count it as i never expect it - hope that makes sense). Plus £5 from swaggers - amaz*nSo amaz*n is just being saved up there
The £52 got used - 1, some postage of parcels (sold on eb*y) but funds not arrived in my bank from paypal as yet 2, a bit of food shopping - bigger shop tomorrow this was just what was on offer
So i'm repaying £35 of the £580 today. Expecting eb*y funds in bank tomorrow so will be throwing everything extra at this first of all x
Still £57 on day 1 is pretty good - will just need to find more stuff to list for sale :cool:CC1:T £[STRIKE]2531[/STRIKE] £1460MORTGAGE OVERPAYMENTS: £10575.20 Target £12,100MF Date: [STRIKE]August 2042[/STRIKE] May 2035Declutter 1000 things by Xmas 2015! 53/10000 -
Thanks for the add Aesop.
A good start to the month here. £6.02 paid out from Quidco today, £3 from selling unwanted items and £8.08 from Topcashback. I make that £17.10/£145 and it's only the 1st :j.
I've also got a £5 Amazon voucher, a £3 Luncheon Voucher and a mystery shop coming up too so it's looking good.:DYummy mummy, runner, baker and procrastinator0 -
