    Handed in my books at Asda today, and claimed some cash back from Shopitize. Also 10p roadkill. I will update my MTD totals when the cash comes in :D

    Good luck with your move shariann. Had a very busy week so far so had little time to update but I have had a few payments come in through the week so things have been ticking over. Made £8.51 from Am@zon, as well as £3.00 on a fb sale and received another £10.00 redeem on CP bringing my total up to £61.39. I also had a nice little surprise refund from plusnet of just over £87.00 and a future tariff reduction. I've decided not to add it to my total with it being a refund but it was certainly a welcome surprise.

    Well done to all earners. We're halfway there!

    Few vouchers and eBay sales this week means I'm nearly a third of the way there.
    Got 2 formal dresses I'm thinking of selling e.g wedding type things- one is warehouse, one Dorothy p. We have a dress agency in town that gives you 40% of sale price- trying to decide whether to do that or go for eBay - any thoughts anyone?

    Hope you all have a marvellous Monday
