    You are all doing fantastic, well done! I just keep an eye on the thread for ideas as I am off sick at the moment any money is for bills but I have found an app for iPhone / iPad, my points are adding up fairly quickly and can be withdrawn as PayPal, PM me for details - I will also put on referrers board.

    Keep going! I look forward to joining properly soon!

    jhl1987 I am not sure why you've asked people to PM you for details of the Iphone app - we're all in here to support each other, not to make it harder for each other! :)

    Anyway I believe you're referring to the app called 'Flick Points' which is found by searching the App store. Don't know what it's like as I have never used it. It states 'watch videos, get free rewards' and the app itself seems to be free. However the first review on the app store is from someone who says you seem to have to watch 3,000 videos just to get 1 dollar so maybe not worth it after all.....:eek:

  • Hi All

    It's Friday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Well it's payday for me on Monday and Thursday so I'm quite looking forward to feeling a little bit richer for a few minutes atleast. We've written up a money plan so over the next month we can move all of our direct debits to our new accounts and make sure money is going into the right places! The plan is for our second wages to go into a savings account and then any left over money is to be sent there aswell. We're having our spending money in envelopes this time so we will not being using our cards. We'll then transfer anything that is left in the savings accounts to the credit card. I need to go through the spare room this weekend and get a pile together of things to eBay as Ian doesn't get a second wage this month so we're going to be short. To compensate, we're going to try and live as much as possible off the contents of the fridge and the freezer and just buy fruit and veggies when we need them. I've even done a menu plan which is proving to be a whole new territory for me! I'm hoping taking all of the above into consideration we'll be able to pay off around £1000 this month but we'll just have to seeOn another note my probationary period comes to an end next week so I'm quite excited and it's pay review time aswell so hoping we might be a little better off by next payday. My employer has also been really good and paid me for the two days off I had due to the car crash.

    Anyways happy percenting as always
