Finally sold my pram on preloved for £130 which means I have hit my target for this month early! Going to use the money to finally clear my british gas bill of £148 as I have now swapped provider and that bill has been hanging over me for the last couple of years! Also ebay sales of £4.57. Not counting this but feeling pleased that I went to Sainsburys and got all of my nephews birthday presents and some other christmas presents for half price then used a £30 giftcard that I got for taking out their home insurance as well as £5 in nectar points.Next- £486.25 Barclaycard £600 :eek:

Hello everyone,
I've had a wonderful time as the guest of the company on a cruise liner, with all bills covered for me. I'm not counting this in the challenge but with all food, drink, excursions and even a spa treatment covered, it would have cost a lot of money and I am hugely grateful to have had the opportunity.
I have extra money in my purse I'm not including today -- I changed back some dollars I didn't spend and got £7 back on a top I took back because it was too tight a fit.
I notched up a massive £1.52 on TopCashback from airport parking which will take a while to come through, I'm at 4,000 points on YouGov so only 1,000 until I can get £50, I don't know how long that will take, it's another fair few surveys.
I've added £4 made up of very low value eBay sales, 11p Qmee and 23p in more nectar points from something or other.
Good luck for the rest of the month and into November xx0 -
Just got 8 new jackets listed on the bay (yes on business account before anyone comments on that) i'm not overly hopeful for sales as i have struggled to sell them but i figure if they not listed they definitely won't sell.....
Not received payment yet for £75 item......and other one has to go to Quatar and my £10 postage charge doesn't cover it :eek::eek:

You and me both FC 8 items sold 6 paid (waiting for the other two) Mine are going to Malta (undercharged) Ukraine (overcharged) will refund the difference. Australia (undercharged) and 3 UK 2 correct one undercharged by £4 :eek:
With the PO charges I just cant seem to get it right even if I get the tape-measure out and weigh it its still wrong.
Oh well at least the stuff is on its way out of the house I suppose

Oh wow!!! I have just worked out that being successful in making £10 a day of extra money for a whole year is the equivalent of securing a payrise of almost £5400 where basic rate tax and NI is payable!!! Oh my word!!!! Way cool!!!Credit Card Freedom gained 14 Feb 2014!!Total Debt Freedom gained 29 Apr 2014!!Savings goal 30/9/23: £72,000/£538,001.....yes I'm serious!Total Debt August 2013: [STRIKE]$21,587[/STRIKE] April 2014: $0!!!!:j0
