    Hello, NUMBER 36
    Not sure if this counts but returned unneeded (but very much wanted) clothes to Next = £52 and underwear returned to Asda = £14.

    Well done on returning the items. I always return stuff too if I suddenly think 'what was I thinking!' It is better to return them and have the cash than end up putting stuff in the cupboard or worse selling on ebay / carboot for a fraction of the cost later one. A good positive step in the right direction x :j

    Pm me your twitter id. Let's see if I can help. Are you on fb too?

    Thanks, I think I have sorted it now. Time will tell I suppose.

    Lacking motivation today. Feel like I haven't slept for a week! Trying to organise my hospital bag but have no oomph.

    Got a free Graze box this morning. Going to add £4 for that.

    Hey guys.

    Lots of money making activity from you all, and so early in the month too! I'm a bit concerned that some freelance work I was banking on for this month isn't going to show, so will have to get creative on how to earn the extra magic beans.

    Yesterday I emptied my penny jar, accumulating £9 and made £5 from some cupcakes a friend commissioned. So that's £14/£310 for me thus far.

    Surveys have been slim on the ground, so I listed 10 items on Amazon last night as an alternative avenue. It made me sad how little my once prescious possessions are now worth, but a new washing machine is worth more to me now than an unwatched DVD boxset!

    Anywho, enough from me. Have a great day all. :o

    £35.35 cashback confirmed on TCB (was meant to be £50 but suppose I can't complain) Hopefully this changes to payable soon.

    Making the most of feeling crap and chasing up a few complaints.
