Makingabobor2 said:Well done @Shineyhappy, sounds like you're doing really well. I seem to be having a really slow month so far. Need to get a wriggle onI am also trying to use up the random stuff I have in the kitchen to save some extra cash. Yesterday we had a packet of microwave quinoa, buckwheat olive and cranberry- best before Oct 21 - we are fine today 🫣
Im also trying to use the rhubarb that we have in excess but in a diet way - which is harder as most ideas involve sugar and cake type things.
Im not counting any of that though.Debt Free - done

Forgot to declare yesterday that I added another £10 from a FB sale. I'm about £25 short of where I should be at this time of the month, so need to try harder. I'm sure I'll get there by the end of the monthMaking the debt go down and savings go up

£6.48 today from Q/m** and P/fc
Plus got the email to say I will get the £100 from NW, but that's not till June, so will add it when it arrives. Will be helpful in June as we are away for a few days, so probably won't get many surveys.Making the debt go down and savings go up

@Makingabobor2 that’s a fantastic surprise bonus for no work 🥳 congratulations! Plus will motivate you to keep doing this challenge as it’s a great start to June!£25 cash from sale is banked now

So far banked £78.07
In progress

I also had a £2 bonus on 4 cash back items on Shopium, I think I will be 15p up after buying a Soreen loaf, two vegan pot noodle type things and a Maggi sauce mix. If anyone wants a referral code PM me as you can get a free packet of Dairy Milk buttons 😂 it is a good app and worth keeping an eye on. Sometimes I take advantage of offers for baby food, dog food or things I wouldn’t eat and put them in the food bank once the request has been validated.I hope everyone has a great weekend and takes advantage of the free vitamin d 😊Debt Free - done

£15 Amazon vouchers have now been added to our account
The post also bought some good news yesterday, I got a code for Costa voucher £5 from a Lloyds insurance quote I did a while ago and two £10 gift vouchers from a Home survey thing we were posted ages ago which I did and sent back.
Pfc seems very quiet this weekend which is frustrating!

Been so busy at work, my efforts have been more than a bit rubbish. I’m at £73.30 this month from a mix of a tiny amount of Prolific and Curious Cat early on, bank interest, credit card Cashback, topcashback nectar points and asking for contributions towards a bill from family.Putting some stuff on eBay this evening.My target is £155 and I’m going for it in the last week or so.1
