    Just a couple of bits for me to add. £1.58 multi buy on shopping and £14.15 saved by making my own lunches - would have been £15 if I hadn't bought a Danish this morning for breakfast.

    I used to spend approx £3 a day in our office restaurant or deli bar but now make my own lunch. A great saver as a main course has now gone up to £3.50 and that's before adding the veg. It's highly subsidised but when you still have to come home and cook dinner for the rest of the family it tends to add on the £'s as well as the lbs in weight.

    Got a busy weekend coming up, going to see my nieces new baby twins and working in the jungle of a garden so no car boot or eBay for me but will try to get organised for next week.

    hello and a very warm welcome! you made me tired just reading what you have been doing to make money!

    sorry to hear about your husband :( my condolences.

    I am sure he is extremely proud of you! and I see you have a Badger badge too! :T what were you money tipped for?

    Thank you, I remember seeing this thread when I first joined MSE but I wasn't in a place emotionally to attempt anything much, I'm full of admiration for all the dedication and inspiration shown. I lurked a little and picked up some tips.

    I got a badge after I posted about a freebie on offer in Nisa last month so that was a nice turn up.

    Thanks for your warm welcome, it was about time I got my act together x

    Looks like I have an additional £250 :j. This is good because the road tax letter came through today and plastered along the bottom was 'i need mot'd from 30th Sept' Gutted as I thought it was January 2014 it was due (thats when I bought the car :rotfl:, baby brain at its best)

    Chucked £4 odds in the piggy bank, all adds up :D

    Mystery shopping report submitted and trying to get organized for work tomorrow. 4 hour shift (love rehab hours)

    I must sort out my SAAS documentation or ill be super skint in September!
