    Well the Gas Bill's in ! £43.16 incl £18 odd of "standing charges" their estimate £92.69 -so the saving is £49.53 - I'm claiming that !

    But it seems we're using too much hot water !
    That's a great saving for chopping some wood :rotfl:


    Too much hot water :huh: - too many baths (shower), too much washing (put on cool wash), washing hands or rinsing dishes (use cold tap), filling the sink for washing up (use a bowl) or simply a drippy tap.

    Evening all


    Well done everyone - such a fantastic start to a cold and miserable February :dance: :dance:


    Well chuffed. Did a couple of Pro Ac today, one of them cleared already and.........first pay out of £20.13 on the way hurray :j


    It is two years today that I started on my giving-up-smoking challenge and still going, so I'm giving myself a pat on the back as I never thought I'd do it. Now just need to lose the last four pounds of weight that I put on :rotfl:


    Hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday

    Everyone is doing so well!

    I have a lonely, single dollar to add, an Amazon code from checkpoints. I do have a bunch of Amazon sales pending however, so that is going well :)

    Good morning everyone :)

    Firstly, welcome SavingForARainyDay :wave: It's nice and friendly here so I'm sure you'll pick up loads of tips. Good luck with your challenge!

    Happy anniversary lynnejk :beer: Two years is brilliant!! Congratulations

    The payment I've been waiting for hit my bank account this morning, adding a rather pleasing £160.80 to my total. It's actually a little earlier than anticipated and very very welcome because I've dipped into my overdraft for the first time in I don't know how long :eek: so I'm now back in the black!

    Off now to grab breakfast :coffee: I'll pop back later to see how everyone's doing. Have a nice Wednesday :D
