  • I am so fuming with my mobile company. I upgraded in March and whoever served me in the shop has not processed it right. I have therefore been charged for internet use for the last month when it should have been included in the upgrade. I have called the head office 4 times now and faxed my copy of the contract which they now cannot locate. Arrrrgh. I am on a day off on wednesday so am going back to the store with my contract to try and sort it out. At the mo I am £20 out of pocket until I can sort all this out and try and get it refunded. Moan over.

    Thanks!

    A quick update with £43.01 made up from ebay sales, shy forest people payment and 1p roadkill. With the kids being off money seems to be draining rapidly as opposed to coming in!! Thankfully the weather has been great so the parks and walks have been well utilised. Got 5 nights away with the family in our caravan coming up and I can't wait!

    Had a few unexpected payments this month which has left me overspent to the tune of £50, so I am going to have to get my act into gear when we get back to make up the shortfall. It's funny as at some points in my life I would be £1k overdrawn and barely even blink about it. I seriously hate going overspent now as it throws my budgeting out for the following month.

    Have a great Easter everyone & I love catching up with the posts in here. It keeps me focused!

    Hello everyone, wow it's been months since I've done this but recently it's been calling me back :) I'll go for £150 for April and see how I get on. Just had £5 from a MS and £7.60 from an Etsy sale to Australia no less!
  • £4.50 to add from Grand National win. Also awaiting cashback for that. Have withdrawn more from paypal from ebay and crafty sales but need to post lots first so will add once that is taken off.

    Challengers are updated - we've got 47 people signed up now! Phew.

    Absolutely nothing else to add here. I'm all out of ideas, apart from my Bubblews e-chqeue, I have nothing pending.

    We went to see our wedding venue again yesterday (here's a pic of us I posted to Instagram) and I'm getting completely overwhelmed with all the things we have to pay for. I really need to up my game, but the more I worry about it, the more I panic and don't do anything productive.
    I like to make money
    Best wins: £3,000 luxury holiday, holiday in Cornwall, £250 Murad Skincare hamper, angle grinder


    :j Make £10 a day challenger - it pays for trips to Florida! :j
