    So I reckon we'll be looking at £225 off the debt figure.. I need to adjust my signature as it's not correct at all, reckon I'll be at just under £900.. but everything extra will get flung at it this month..

    Hidden, I think it's a shame not to be able to use it online though, I could do loads - I'm not debating whether to do one shop at the actual shop to get the offers, but it's my time spent doing it and when I do it online, I can control spends to the penny! I'm fatal in a shop.

    CheckoutSmart (run by £co) has offers for online stuff, though we haven't found anything overly enticing there. Might be worth checking out though.

    I just downloaded that, but as you say - not many exciting offers..

    We do the 1p am@zon draw one with all our shopping - think we're up to about £16 credit between that and buying a couple of things here and there...£20 is the minimum for a fee-free withdrawal I believe.

    You can use online receipts can't you for the 1p draw?

    don't understand that at all as it lets you select the .com option but has rejected my receipt! B*****r

    never mind, plan to stop off Tuesday night on route home to grab three things that will give us cashback, just didn't order them on the main shopping.. Mr T been and that was £43 something, so £45 sent to the CC. Three fleabay sales today, so £8 split between mort OP and CC.. have alo sent £200 to the CC as a starter for payoff next month, so WILL update the figure when it updates online so I know how much the balance is.

    Nice FD today, been to flicks and apart from that, not a lot else!
