Hi I havent been on this thread since I asked to join, but I am still doing the challenge, so thought I'd give you all a quick update. So far I've got some free credit from my phone company, had a couple of hours overtime at work and had £4 from pinecone, which has added up to a grand total of £38!
I should do better soon though coz I have been asked to do extra overtime at the end of January, I've ordered a £10 voucher from Valued Opinions, and £30 vouchers from Pigsback. I hope it's OK to count vouchers, but they're all for places I go anyway and I count them as money! Like someone else said they'd done, I've overpaid 2 weeks on my rent at Christmas too (manage to forget to cancel the standing order every year!) so will be claiming that back soon, but I seem to remember it takes about 6 weeks to come through and I'm not adding anything on until I actually have received the money.
Oh, and I've been invited to shop and scan which I'm really pleased about as I've wanted to do for a while - I already do FactFinders but this looks so much better.0 -

I've had another £50 Paypal deposit today, bringing me up to £980.88 for the challenge so far. But that's the money made from the Ebay cheap listing days, so it definitely won't be continuing at this rate, sadly!0 -
