Hi

What a good idea.

I'm not joining but will 'borrow'afew of the. Ideas:D

I read that somebody has pledged to only download free books onto a kindle. Have you seen this website? http://dailyfreebooksrum.co.uk You can get an email each day with books that have become free on Amazon that day.

Hope this helps.

Everyone has been added!
How are you all getting on?

I've had a spendy weekend so I'm trying to go all week without buying anything.
What are your plans to save money this week?

What a fab thread with some great ideas. Can I be included?

I'm hoping to try and save/make as much money as possible this year and have been joining a lot of the challenges on MSE and this thread should provide some much needed motivation to keep at it.

I'll have a think about my list and will post later x

Ok, here is my list (will keep adding though the challenge):

1. Put any loose change in a jar
2. Save weekly for Xmas next year
3. Buy in bulk
4. Enter competitions
5. Do online surveys
6. Use up toiletries before buying new ones
7. Read all books I currently have before buying new ones
8. Use bag for life/s when shopping
9. Declutter the house and sell/give away unwanted items
10. Drink water at work
11. Only buy clothes that I know I will wear (and not just once!!)

rylee12, Of course it's okay!
The more the merrier!

Today I:
* Left my bank card at home
* Left all my cash apart from £5 solely for emergency bus fare if i did lose my bus pass.
* Went straight home because I was tired
* instead of buying a drink for the bottle, I just used a spare cup in work and filled it up

Hoping to do the same tomorrow.

Today again Today I:

* Left all my cash apart from £5 solely for emergency bus fare if i did lose my bus pass.
* Went straight home because I was tired
* instead of buying a drink for the bottle, I just used a spare cup in work and filled it up

But also today I learned that Amazon charged me £79.00 for their prime account,
So I have ended it and will ring tomorrow to see if I can get a full refund...I unknowingly opted for 1 day delivery

Contacted Amazon & they are refunding me the full amount
