  • Hi all,

    Thanks for my birthday messages :) - I had a day pretty much like any other really although I did get bought a lovely new shiny tablet from my hubby and kids and the kids made me some lovely cards which bought a tear to my eye (as they always do!).

    OH treated me to a pizza for tea last night but in true MSE fashion I used a BOGOF voucher saving us £18 and also a £2 MOC for my cake so I'm adding a further £20 to my total. :D

    Have'nt seen my mum and dad yet bit still hoping a little cash may well be coming my way :p

    Today,

    £10.00 Maximiles Sainsburys voucher


    On a down note, my lawnmower dead-a-death, :( and we will need a new, it made an awful bang when the husband was mowing the back garden and I know it wasn't a new fuse job..

  • 22p from Qmee (My friend made 38p today from stuff she does at work)
    90p from ebay after fees
    62p in added nectar points, not sure what from
    £73.50 from TCB - yay -- from Aviva car insurance, been about 5 weeks so not that bad -- delighted with this to be honest x
  • Good evening all! Just had a catch-up - it's been over a week since I last checked in I think. You've all done brilliantly! Very inspiring! :D

    Have been really busy in a nice way. I made a few suggestions to a charity I volunteer for, about new systems and stuff, and they ran with it and invited me to draft and design a whole new system! That's what I've been doing all last week!! I'll be doing it voluntarily at first, on the understanding that as soon as they can allocate a bit of funding my way it'll become paid work. I'm really thrilled! I've been with them for two years now, and they do fabulous work, and so even a small half-days regular income (for work I can do from home) will be just amazing. So fingers crossed it all works out. I guess it's future-money-making!:j

    But as for hard cash here and now:

    85p MOC at Iceland
    43p roadkill (collected whilst walking home from the carnival last Saturday :o)
    £2.20 e-bay sale
    £10 Amazon voucher from Ipsos

    I shan't make target this month now, but it's still more money than I had when I started.

    And for the third month in a row I haven't had to borrow anything off DS to reach the end of the month, so it's all good!!:)

    If you then put the £5 towards a debt or into savings then yes, otherwise just enjoy the freebie and don't count it Xx
