    Hope you enjoy your short break MRS C. Are you going anywhere nice ??

    Each month a new thread is opened (usually by Aesop) and we all declare ourselves 'in'. We are then added to the list in the order that we have asked to join that month. I think it would be too much for Aesop to dot us around with different numbers, try to remember who has which number or assume people are 'in' again when they might not be.

    Perhaps it is easier for people to change their challenger number in their signature each month? Xx


    Thanks for that. It was probably me misunderstanding things as usual but I thought last year Aesop asked us to add our numbers and asked if we wanted to keep the same. It's ok though and I'll just remove mine and check I'm on the list at the beginning of next month. Think my holidays addled the poor old grey cells :rotfl:
    I have noticed that other people include yellow sticker items and I have decided to include these in my total from now on.


    Think it depends how you organise your challenges. Because I'm also in the Grocery Challenge all my YS, vouchers, tokens etc come of that - I don't feel I can count the same money twice - I WISH :D
    Just requested £43.59p from Quidco. Will be in my account in a few days :D

    Target smashed :D

    FANTASTIC CP - WELL DONE SO EARLY :dance: :dance:


    I'm plodding along - slowly gathering pace ( well maybe) with the grand total of £4.25 to add today.


    Hope you all staying warm and dry and have a great Thursday

    £6.48 after fees and postage from an eBay sale, and the £13.50 I was waiting on from Field Agent came through.

    £19.98 to add, added to signature.

    Few quid roadkill as well, but haven't added to this cos it just went in my sealed pot and I won't actually see it til end of the year. Should I be counting that too?

    EDIT: Ooh forgot to add £33.30 from a mileage claim at work, that makes this month's balance look a bit healthier.

    £53.28 to add :D

    Think you've certainly earned a bit of R&R so hope you really enjoy and maybe even get a bit of sunshine to brighten the week-end.


    I managed to make £5 on surveys today (but boy was it hard going) and have booked 4 small MS so far for next month - slowly gathering steam :rotfl:


    Hope you all have a fantastic Friday
