The job sounds right for you surfchik!
.....I would be back to each one costing me a tenner :rotfl:

Thanks KM.

I'm with Lynne on this. If you know you'll use it and can afford it, go stock up! Can you do a click and collect via a cashback site too? You can often find stuff like that as unwanted gifts on eBay too...for a good discount. I've bought many items (sealed) for about 10-40% cheaper than the shops that way.

The ZEEK app is also good for getting wanted gift vouchers for your favourite shops cheap too. Then buy what you normally would using them. It's basically a discounted item that way.

Failing that (and being an all natural, ex-holistic therapist) I can't recommend olive oil, castor oil and coconut oil highly enough as wonderfully nourishing and frugal skin cream/moisturiser. Just a tip for anyone who might be interested

EDIT: Just checked topcashback KM and Superdrug are currently 2% cashback with a voucher code for free delivery to registered users if it's any help to you?!

Saved £20 by getting quotes for heating oil - can I count the saving towards my challenge?

I'm pretty sure you can stressedmum. It is a saving after all

Oops, posted before I meant to...shall continue though since we're aiming for another 1000 posts this month.

Not a lot to report from me. Up before the larks this morning in the name of making money so not much opportunity for making extras. I have relisted my book on Amazon and it seems to be okay this time. I can only think it was blocked last time because it was before the UK release date so Amazon was only taking pre orders...dunno, but it's listed now so that'll bring in a whole £1.50 if it sells (not much lol, but a-someone else gets to read it b-it doesn't clutter up my teeny tiny flat and c-well, it's cash in my pocket )

I'll do some surveys tonight when I get home but hoping for an early night (lol, not a Friday night party animal tonight :rotfl:)

Of course you can count it - if you can move that £20 into an account or something all the better

Another little invoice paid for me today and now up to £97.27 in account - i'm debating about paying the money off my mortgage every time i get to £100 in there now to stop me spending it on daft things ah the thread is helping me again already :A

Well done on the oil saving, stressed.mum:T

We have oil central-heating too and have noticed the price dropping considerably recently. We filled up a short time ago and have since joined a local bulk-buying group to save even more. You have to take a minimum amount per order to qualify for the discount (not a massive amount of oil, about half our tank's capacity) but we can't squeeze enough in at the moment to get the latest offer:(

stressed.mum

Thanks
Normally I just take the price, but I someone told me oil was cheap at the moment so I thought I would check. The first price I was offered was 4p a litre more than I found on line!!
Makes a big difference on a tank of oil.

Yes FairyClicks, I am transferring all my £5/day cash into a savings account, this will become my emergency fund as at the moment we don't have anything in reserve. I have £100 left in my oil budget, but will probably keep that and reduce my monthly budget as I am a little short each month on income against budget, and my income changes monthly so I am trying to decrease my budget to fit!

Thanks so much for that.......really appreciate it!!

£5.40 tips to add for me today.

Keep doing the odd bit on prolific but much as I am tempted to cash out at a fiver, I will wait till I have reached £20.

Checking through daily lottery etc sites and... has anyone noticed that an awful lot of the winner's on Ashleigh's daily draw are from the "NE" postcode area? Currently 4 of the last 10 but there hasn't been a day since I started checking in early November that there have been less than 3 in the last top 10.

Also, in that time, a "Clare" in NE has won three times.

Sometimes things go a little past 'random' you know?
