Morning all, last night I hit the reduced aisles of sainsburys as per usual, and bagged loads of fresh fish then used a 50p brand match voucher and a £5 nectar redeem to bring the price down even further

£5.50 to add to siggy

Eeep, my plan was to do a 0% balance transfer from one CC to another, but of course Barclaycard don't have the 0% offer on my account - but that have spurred me on to clear the debt. The card changes from 0% on 2nd February, so I need to get myself into gear!

I chased up a refund for a phone cover that doesn't fit - it was a few mm too small - not that I'd purchased the wrong one.

Packaged up some eBay sales and paid my fees so I know where I stand - £15.11 to add.

Waiting for two more payments to come though, fingers crossed the buyers don't change their minds. We decided we're going to sell our bikes and cross trainer last night, as they're just taking up room in the living room - hopefully they will sell towards this month's goal (and paying off the CC before the rate shoots up).

Edit: Ohhh tough choice. I've got enough Swagbucks to redeem £10 Paypal, but I was hoping to save Amazon vouchers for a new game coming out in May. I'm thinking money now beats a game 5 months away....

I think you get more for your swagbucks if you get amazon vouchers as they take less swagbucks. This is why I always go for amazon with the plan of saving them all for next christmas but I know what you mean about money now being handy. I don'y mind playing the long game

* Received £40 Cheque from survey-site OneP*ll
* £1.20 found either roadkill on my walks or from my OH kindly letting me keep whatever I found in his car (he's a taxi-driver) so lots of hidden coins waiting to be re-captured!
* OH gave me 43 pence from change he got when buying bread and stuff.

So a nice £73.21/£155.00 so far! I will take that!

I've done 2 (very long) mystery shops today, which will earn £70. Also finishing off some online and phone call mystery shops, which will earn about £20 in total. Refund of £3.01 received for some out of stock items that I bought from my Paypal balance before Christmas.

As I've already passed my original aim of £310, I've decided to aim for £15 a day for January. Let's hope I can pass this one too!

Made some savings on shopping today - half price chicken and potatoes (£3.50) plus some yellow sticker things (£2.20). So off the blocks with £5.70! Also saved £15 a month with changing BT package but that won't kick in until next month.

£2 transferred as brought own lunch into work today. Only a small amount but it is upwards and that is good by me!! :cool:
