    I don't think anyone runs it now but I'd agree with Surfchik, it was a great intro.

    Sorry Aesop, I thought the helpful posts were on this month's thread! Oops!

    I've just saved myself over £100 a year on my gas/leccy by doing the MSE switch (which wasn't a switch but a tarriff change. And I've saved my mum a small fortune! If you haven't tried it - Do!

    Can I count the saving as I go along, if I skim it into savings, Aesop?

    Me too Sugarplum :beer: I'm saving £142 per year and will get £15 cashback :money:

    I had a fairly productive day. It started slowly trying to drag myself out of bed, then I did a load of surveys, switched electricity supplier, chased up a payment that was due to me, walked 14000 steps...mostly in the rain...and moved money around so I can take advantage of the 5% contactless cashback on my new TSB debit card!

    Happy Thursday!

    Got a few more bids on a couple of ebay listings, gave me the incentive to list some other stuff that I had been procrastinating about! Surveys are slow this month, a bit busier at work. Still finding some time to take some pictures and blogging a bit, in time it might bring some money..

    Well done for all the money making everyone, some pretty impressive totals despite the short month!
