    It's quite a long list - maybe there is a way to find out how much the monetary value for each source is approximately, so it would help in choosing which one to start from?

    But hey I would like to give it a go if it's not too late?!

    I need to make some real effort here but I had in January...

    £3 Amazon voucher from Swagbucks
    £6.85 pay out from Quidco
    £3.71 from the OnePulse survey app

    I also checked my TfL Oystercard account and got a £7.60 refund from cards I don't have any more. Does this count?!

    So this is only £21.16 so far, eek!

    #70 not much action but managed to get our virgin down by £20 a month.

    That adds up to £220 saved over the rest of the year so this months total si £334.25/£2019 :money:

    Additional savings that I have not added but could have beens are eating out on the way home from work. January alone I have not spent £42.29 at M*d*nalds and various other places.

    I lost 3lbs too - an added bonus as I don't do dieting in winter :D

    Will do this again in February, just need snappy name now. :rotfl:

    £9 - overtime - LOL
    20p - Roadkill
    £18.15 - Depop
    £4.63 - Depop
    £4.63 - Depop

    £36.61

    Can`t see myself reaching the goal this year. Less overtime and Swagbucks rapidly declining I will be way off the mark.
