    Ceza - well done, it's up to You how you want to count things in the challenge

    LuckyPenny - I have days like that as well, best thing to remember is that it's a year long challenge and not a race to reach £2014

    Lara44 - welcome, ouch thats just want you don't need to hear just before xmas

    Added £26.58 from matched betting this week. Updated my signature.

    Doing a lot of extra hours at work means I'm short of free time, so MB'ing isn't making me the profits it usually does. I'll get paid for the extra work hours though, so I guess it's swings and roundabouts.

  • Sold a couple of bits on ebay over the weekend giving me an extra £6.50 by the time the fees and postage had been removed.

    I know, it left a huge hole in the budget _pale_ But I must admit I have been enjoying time at home to myself and with friends before the baby comes. Poor old OH has taken a 6 month contract instead so I have been cooking him nice meals in compensation!

    Got £50 in the sig, £30 MSE energy cashback and £20 compensation from Natbeast bank for poor customer service. I only wanted a rant so £20 was a bonus!

    Plans for this week:

    1 session babysitting :j
    Fleabaying a few clothes for the first time - not sure if its worth it?
    Dig out old phone and get prices for it

    Hi everyone! Just counted up my total for January (will recount at the end of the week!) and got to £243.26! Very chuffed! Some from extra work I've done, and made £54.54 on ebay, £16.48 on redspottedhanky (Thanks O2!) and my first £5 on swagbucks - yay! I'm including nectar/clubcard/boots points in this as I use them for gifts etc, and cashback from Quidco/TCB too.

    So far so good :j

  • Hi guys

    Been a bit slow for the last week, but the last few days have picked up with 3 ebay sales bagging me around £25 after fees. My total is now £161.

    Also got £10 Paypal from MySurvey pending, but I'll add that on as soon as its in my account.

    Keep up the good work, everyone! :)
