    Well done Nelly :D

    I've written an email to PC and they came back saying I am on voucher payment so should receive those for June - yey

    First payout from Crowdology £4.55
    Quidco £7.33
    Market Research £13.25
    TB £29.89
    £2.50 on 3 x supermarket evouchers for fruit and veg

    Total declared for May = £361.04 of which for the first month ever I have £100 physically in savings ready for my car insurance in July, the rest has gone towards paying off bills and a few birthday pressies etc that I had no clue how I was going to pay for!

    Here's to June - good luck all xxx
    Debt Free by 2015: £5839.01/£13000 1% challenge = 44.91%

    Yes I have a couple of spreadsheets I use, both "selling" profit & general tracking, happy to help if I can :A

    Although I see Scarlet has beaten me to it :)

    With help from a refund, scratchie win, roadkill and birthday money - I've got a further £140 to add to the kitty for the month :T

    Don't think I'll have much more to add now, and didn't get round to making use of the free listing this weekend :o

    Great to see everyone is still making progress - brilliant! :beer:

    Thanks Angel, will PM you!
    Think i read it has been your birthday too.... hope you had a great day :beer:

    Have had a quick total up as last day of May, eeekkk!
    Since last posting i have received -
    £5 Halifax c/c reward
    £5.00 credit from first direct after i complained! (counting £4.14 as i've deducted the cost of the call!)
    £30.00 imutual
    £5.68 ebay profit (usage stamps from RM survey towards postage!) have jumped back on the ebay bandwagon after about two years off!
    £0.32 & £0.21 - App trailers
    £5.00 On device - this will be my last as they are no longer doing study on ipods
    £5.00 get jam
    £5.00 gumtree sale

    Other things i am not counting as i am not transfering the equivilent but that have saved me money from my general money
    - Bought new hairdryer from Boots (old one cut out this week, working again but ???how long for!) was half price, bought with Boots points & went via TCB!
    - Exchanged Tesco vouchers for rewards vouchers (Legoland & Pizza Express) would have not afforded this otherwise!
    - Few coupons at Mr T's
    - Have done x2 Shell petrol Mighty Deals both via TCB & x2 M&S Groupon via TCB (thanks to CP & Aesop as wouldn't have know about it otherwise) - if the current account is looking healthy enough when i redeem these i may count the amount saved, but that will be in the future.

    Redeemed but not received so not yet counting - £10 S&S; £10 consumer pulse & £5 swag. Also have ebay items ending Sun, two with bids, so all a good start for June!

    So i am declaring a total of £90.68, so near yet so far! But more than i could of imagined, so thank you to everyone who posts, especially Aesop for running the thread!

    I signed up to groupon m&s deal as I buy my trousers from there, spent £20 so will add the free £20 when I get it. Also £6 brand match coupon from sainsburys and a nice £0.64 from assdas APG....

    That means Ive smashed my £700 target :D very pleased with myself :D

    £24 in p-cone vouchers (you can imagine how long it took to scan these :rotfl: )
    £4 off £40
    £4.45 in various money off coupons (clubcard and magazine)

    So today on my "big" shop i saved a total of........ £44.45p!!!!!!!

    EDIT: £297.10p/£310

    Do you mind me asking, Did you order on line and use your vouchers when you pick it up from Mr. T`s?
