  • Well done on the moneymaking everyone. I'm very slow off the mark this month, but I'll try and have a catch-up this week.

    I don't usually post on this thread - but I keep trying the make £10 a day thing as a habit. This month I've had:

    £30 refund
    £22 FB sales
    £130 bank switching
    £37+ £c0
    Just under £3 points knocked off groceries

    So currently £222

    1) MFW Nov 21 £202K now £165K Equity 38.88% 6/9/26
    2) £1.5K Net savings after CCs 29/8/26 (but owed £130) so £1.6K
    3) 47/82K @29/8/26 = 57.31% AVC Goal by mid 2028

    I got an extra 20% off code by nearly leaving a site - so that saved me £3 - so now at at least £225, I've also had a £13 refund for poor service from my BB supplier - so that takes me to £238.
