    LOL El, hope you are feeling better v soon!

    DS skied for a while, but then they found that they could watch Evan Almighty somehow on the laptop so sat and watched that in the clubhouse instead!!

    Now back at home - OH is playing on the Nintendo thingy, DS is out on his bike and DD is on the other computer - no one has the energy to make conversation!! I have done a bit more matched betting this afternoon, so happy with that, and will think about making dinner in due course....:D

    I will have cleared £150 this weekend from the new season offers. Could have made more if the cash flow worked in my favour!! I am very happy with that and a couple of them had quidco cash attached too which has tracked so all in all a very profitable weekend. Added to the one earlier in the week and it has been most satisfying!

    Hoping to do some more when the cash is back in the bank next week - keep the ball rolling while I have the enthusiasm!!

    good for you well done
  • Hi Hypno that all sounds like you have had a really productive weekend, I'm really pleased for you! Have you seen the new £1000 challenge in 4 months? Thought it might be of interest to you as I know how much you want that pesky Egg card gone x

    I SOOOOO want that egg card gone! I will be looking for the challenge right now!!

    Mind you, the next target after my egg card, is OH egg card - I just want them both gone. FOREVER :D But that means £5000 which is a little harder to come by in overpayments, although I have upped his monthly standing order to that card in the vain attempt to get it down quicker.

    Sounds like a you've had a really good time, it's nice just to be able to 'go with the flow' and really relax.

    Well done on the MB :T

    Done our first MB sign ups. Followed your advice on Corals, thanks. Admittedly we're using these first few as trials, so as long as we don't lose money we'll be happy, the fact that Quidco and Rpoints give cashback on some gives a bit of a buffer too for the 'learning curve' hopefully! It's not the maths, it's the rules and the terminology that's the difficult bit for us.

    If you carry on at this speed with the MB you'll be through the £42K soon :)
  • Great idea about inc. the SO, we did this and then forgot we had done it, so it was a nice little surprise when the bill came! Would be great to have you on board with the challenge, dezzi is a fab host and it's a great motivator x

  • Hi Hypno, I got your PM today, have had to stay off MSE in an effort to get some work done!!

    Will reply as soon as I can, currently sat watching Harry Potter with kids though.....

    I have done a bit of MB this weekend, but we are going away next weekend and so I withdrew all my money from BF so it can gain some interest in my current account. Just missed out on WillHill offer as well :mad: but I'm sure another one will come round soon.

    TBH will be nice to have a break from it for a few weeks and then go into full force when I get back. Promise I'll PM you before I go though.
