    Another £15.75 to add.

    £12.50 redeemed nectAr points
    £3.25 supermarket savings

    Wahoo...

    Ive never hived off these little savings in the past, I have always just let them languish in my purse or my current account and they just got swallowed up.

    However, separating them like this hAs really shown me just how cAreless I have been in the past. Well no more. I am a reformed character. I have set up a separate bank account and shall enjoy watching my savings grow.

    I can't believe how much I've managed to save/earn so far this month and I haven't even begun to start trying to sell anything yet.....

    thank you so much for this thread. I should have joined this challenge years ago:rotfl:

    well done. do you have a smartphone or topcashback and quidco accounts? if so check if any of the items you have bought qualify for cashback, and if you have smartphone sign upto shopitize and checkoutsmart too.

    Hi Aesop. I noticed you mentioned this the other day but ive no idea how this works. I'm a 63 year old technophobe who is just starting to get to grips with all this.

    I have just joined Topcashback and have used it once when shopping online. There is money in my account but it has not been paid by the retailer yet. I'm just getting used to all this. I do have An IPhone, is that a Smart phone. Can you please point in the right direction on how to do what you suggest.

    Thank you for the suggestion btw I am keen to do asmuch as I can to increase my wealth.;)

    Arsop - I also wanted to thank you for the heads up about PPI.

    Tbh I thought I had missed the boat, so when you mentioned it yesterday I read up about it on Martins tips.

    I have put a note in my diary and once I have all the paperwork together I will look into it. My husband died recently and I just assumed any right to a claim died with him, but apparently not, so I shall definitely being looking into that.

    So again thanks for your timely reminder.
  • Sorry for your loss lessonlearned. Good luck with the PPI Xx
