Hi all
Still plodding to the finishing line and running out of time and motivation:rotfl:

Sold our Beats headphones to someone at OH's work for £100 - though I haven't seen the money at all - my OH has kept it for car stuff (anyone else find everything car related happens at the same time - new tyres, mot! insurance renewal all this month, tax next month!).

Had a £50 cheque from Populus turn up too. Went round to my grandparents today to see my aunt before she goes home and I left with £40 for Christmas and my son left with £21(£20 from grandparents and £1 that my aunt dropped and let him have - he's 2!). Not counting his money in my total but it's been a fairly successful day!

That brings my total so far to £248.98 - should just make target with a shift at the pub tomorrow. It's my old job and haven't helped out in months but it's Christmas holidays so they need all hands on deck

:O new business? What have I missed? (I'm back! Did you see my news?)

Congratulations! :beer: I think that is the best win of all

please-let-me-be-lucky

£5 from Grandma in a 'let me buy your coffee' type affair.
50p in a 'keep the change' deal when I did some shopping for a friend.
5p roadkill at the self service till.

Looks like 5 was my lucky number yesterday! Xx

Morning all, I hope you are okay and not too stressed/rushed by the pressures of preparing for the big day. .

Congratulations Emmaglet, what a wonderful proposal xx .

I've added the following:

12p Qmee from searching for MoneySavingExpert
£5.22 Santander cashback on bills.
£5.35 nectar points (added not yet redeemed, now up to £41, think am going to save to take off shopping in Jan)
£40 Xmas bonus -- not huge I know but very pleased to have been able to have this after a very tough few months work-wise.

Doing a ms today (pub lunch) then not got any booked until the new year.

I've still got payments due before the end of the month so fingers crossed there aren't too many hold-ups.

Take care all, good luck for more per-Christmas money making!

38p Qmee
3.99 saved on tealights on a 3 for 2 deal, and I'm collecting from store so saved the 2.99 delivery - does that count?
Please advise!

Saved 46p on coffee at the train station by using my BITE card (if anyone doesn't have one - get one! They're free and you get 20% off at almost all food outlets within train stations).

And sold 3 old DVDs to my sister for a pound.

Puts me up to £47.78 this month! Not a lot but a good start Lots of stuff on eBay set to end on 27th (timed to get all those people sat at home bored after Christmas!) so should have another few pennies then.

Small update, probably the last one for a mo as I can't see anything else being added to the coffers for a bit!

2 x £5 from Ideas lab
£5.10 from Asda mobile phone trade-in,
... but £8 Ebay fees taken out of the total leaves another £7.10 added to the signature - £50.09 so far, hmm, not quite £10 a day!

I'm in total agreement with those who are glad that Ebay's had it's pre-Xmas moment, anything else can wait for the great de-clutter in January now!

Well done to everyone else, signatures are looking pretty good from here!

Thank you for all your congratulations! I will be back on this challenge in January in full swing to help with the wedding/honeymoon and becoming debt free fund.

I know it's early but I hope you all have a good Christmas.
