I'm still on £613.64, which is frankly, pants!
Don't be so hard on yourself! Still £613.64 more than you would have had without the effort. I think that is a great amount
:beer: Even if you hit half or less this year that is still a lovely amount of month, over £50 a month on average! x This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -
I haven't checked in for so long! To be honest, I have lost track of where I am really. So many unexpected expenses came along and we are only just now starting to get ourselves ready for saving again.

I got £345 in my pay packet on Friday from the competition.
Spent £1.63 of Play.com points
Total to date = £807.94
Oh and I complained about a bar on twitter last weekend and they sent someone to track us down and handed me £60 in cash to buy a round of drinks with! Can't claim that as my personal earnings really though (and we did spend it on drinks) so although that's not counted I was still pretty chuffed!0 -
I have had a good catch up month but still lagging way behind the 2013 target.
This month I have added £23+£28+£7+£22 in my annual insurance referral reviews through Quidco and shaved another£182 off al the renewals, so adds another £261 to my total taking me up to £989 for the year so far.....I know it is much better than not trying but I need to do more. I think a car boot sale and en ebay purge may be called for... Good luck to you all.LBM DEC 13, MBNA CC £5300 (£8k),Barclays CC £7800 (£8k), Barclays Loan £0 (£5k), Virgin CC £7400 (£10k)
Overdraft £3800 (£4650) Slow but steady, need to ramp up the payments in 2015! NSD [STRIKE]Jan 16/12[/STRIKE]! Feb 5/10 bad month :mad: Mar 1/10:T0 -

Hi,
I made £145 this month. Not as well as I had hoped for, but better than nothing.
Nothing sells for me on ebay anymore, but I did manage to get rid of a few things on gumtree.
Hope you are still doing well.

I have now made £4043 since March! Expecting another £630 already for September but never count it until it has arrived. The full £630 is going on bills/savings but I don't care, still money I have earned
