  • 17p from the A$da Price Guarantee. Probably barely worth printing the coupon, but I didn't want to turn the pennies away in case they spread the word and let all their mates think that they weren't welcome either :)

    Which means that I've got just short of twenty-three hours to find £3.14 if I'm to meet my target. The tension is really racking up now. I've not seen drama like this since t'corner shop in Corrie ran out of barm cakes for ten minutes in 1973 :D

    Well I'm declaring at £485, far higher than I imagined at the start of the month, but still lacking in payments from a mystery shop in January, cashback from TCB I was expecting and my mileage claim which will now go through early next month, touch wood.

    It has been an expensive month for me with emergency car repairs, dentist and unforeseen vet fees, among other things. Still I am not complaining, I have completely reinvented my approach to money and touch wood have done well at this challenge, spurred on here over the months.

    I've sold £65 worth of stuff on eBay this month, had £71 from TCB from home insurance and been paid £51.50 for mystery shops, I cancelled four because of car trouble. I've had around £1 from Qmee and £2 from adpoints. Nectar points, bank interest and this month, gifts of cash and vouchers have added up.

    Next month I have (still) two old phones to sell plus kids' bikes and other bits and bobs. Not too long until I will have been doing this a year.

    Thanks all and good luck for March, may all your eBay sales be paid for, all your surveys go through to the end and all your mystery shops not too complicated :)
