    I am doing Ok on the moneysaving but it's more not adding to my debts rather than decreasing so I think I have abit to learn.

    I went to tescos today, used 6 of my £2 impulse vouchers and got 6 boxes of washing powder free so that was good and I handed over money off vouchers and saved an impressive £35 off my total shopping bill.

    As for selling vouchers on ebay - it may be worth a try I know that if people cannot find any they will check out ebay. I bought the Daily Mail today as it had a £4 money off voucher, so if your store will only take one voucher per transaction it's a good 'un to use.

    great news kbarty on your OH getting a job

    you know because u have to have thrity to take money out, can you place money in there and then take it all out together???

    Anyone know the answer to this? I won £21.74 with my last £2 and doubt my luck will hold out for another win :rolleyes: I don't fancy depositing £10 if I can't withdraw it - losing free money's one thing but I'm not losing mine!!!

    Congratulations by the way kbarty - really pleased for you! :T

    Hi Lynz - it's mirror bingo. Free £10 for registering, no deposit required. I only deposited £10 cos the min. withdrawal is £30 and my winnings were £21.

    I came on specifically to tell you this. I won £19 even before breakfast :) and by accident deposited £20 instead of withdrew! There is also a matching bonus so it automatically added another £20. I was sitting there going "Holy crap, what am I gonna do with £60 in a bingo account but it let me withdraw £35 and left me with £4 to play with (you cannot, of course keep the £20 bonus - boo!).

    Put me in a good mood today, that did. :)

    done clicks and comps for today. Don't mind quite so much doing the clicks since it seems like I'm getting somewhere with my balances. Not sure exactly how much I've got pending, shall check at the end of the week.

    To do at the weekend -
    • list some more on ebay
    • matched betting
    • clicks
    • comps
    • add up change jar and add to total.
    • think of lots of other ways to make money!
