Office sounds exciting. Right now my dream house is a 3 bed (with downstairs study nook/cosy room) and an external office in the garden somewhere. Would love for my "commute" to be a 5 minute walk outside!

I actually like going to the office but needs must and home office is the best plan

TCB and HSBC save together made a £30 dent in my mortgage today. Gotta love free money

Night all

Another £10 free money received into mortgage account today

Also £5 Halifax rewards sent to the tidy account this morning. I think this is my first tidy of the year. I haven't been spending any money though!

Happy new year OCC. I would love love love a library/study in our home. Your plans sounds great. Would the extension eat up any of your garden/land?

Can I ask which accounts you have to get all this free money?

First day back in the office for me... actually glad to be back

These ones just lately have been from

top cash back payouts
halifax rewards
hsbc save together

Free money is so great hey!

We have about 1/4 acre of mature gardens (lots of weeds that means!) so with some nifty design and the removal of a couple of trees we can fit in a decent sized home office without compromising on our space

Thanks OCC. i'll check out halifax and hsbc. not sure i;ll spending much over the next 12months to get much Topcashback/quidc0 but i do go through them if i need to purchase.

Wow a 1/4 acre sounds so lovely. x

A little bit of spreadsheet fiddling done tonight. Worked out my daily interest last month was £8.43. Mini target therefore is to get under £8 which should be in June.

Still managed not to move any funds from the annual bills account yet as I've moved a few £££ around from my various bills current accounts leaving each with £10 or £20 in them. May have to move a few £££ fro the annual bills account but I think less than £50 initially.

Today was a NSD. My course starts tomorrow which is good. Have arranged first quotation for guttering thursday.

decluttered one toy to the CS.

On a NSD when the account doesn't need tidying, a reward myself with a whole £1 TT. makes a huge difference and stops the disappointment of logging on but not seeing an untidy account!

I think the HSBC save together is closed to new applicants but m and s have a similar option for new customers, unfortunately I already have an account with them so can't grab it
