    Have added £322 credit from energy supplier! I have been paying too much since February, even though this was already almost £60 a month cheaper than British Gas. Unbelievable! Savings have kicked in from a boiler fitted last year, plus me being noticeably more (cough) switched on about making savings with gas and electricity. A very welcome payment. Am going to slow down now, well after January. . . Xx

    Edited to add £77.82 from mystery shopping. Have got some more jobs booked, starting this weekend.
  • Think I'm done for this month - £132.13

    Target was £155, but December is a busy month at work so not been able to do much extra. Roll on January 2014!

    Happy new year everyone!

    :wave:Happy New Year everyone!

    I couldn't meet my target of £310 :( I have expected some cashback which is still not paid, my credit on ScottishPower account (well above 200quid) still not refunded (letting agent claims she closed down my account on 12/12. I called SP on 19/12 and they didn't know about it at all...), and just got update about my deposit which will be paid back full.

    Hm, :think:, got £94 back from counciltax though that was calculated in for my new flat... and that was in December! :T
    Then I'm almost there!

    Declaring £307/310.

    Well, I'm sad to report a complete and utter fail at my attempt in this. I earned a whopping £0 for the whole month of December :o Probably wasn't the best time of year to join in this kind of mission eh?

    This month is off to a good start though, £23 collected from an ebay sale today, got someone looking at an item after work too which will be another £5 if they take it. I'm on a mission to clear out the spare room too which may or may not offer some additional sell-able items?! I've got some DVD's which aren't shifting on a facebook group, so if I can get £5 worth they might end up being sold on music magpie or the likes (any recommendations out there for places I could use for this?).
