    Still as motivated as ever, though is taking over my life! Some more sign ups on Quidco, £15 profit on Betfair sign up and then won on a race. Have found a couple of things to list on ebay and this week am going to join a couple of free bingo sites - nothing other than time to lose. Keep going everyone!
    I'm not a failure if I don't make it, I'm a success because I :tried!

    Well done ALWAYS HAPPY your doing really well with no sign of stopping, well done.

    I have just really annoyed myself, I have just found a double points and 200 points voucher for boots when you spend over £20 and of course I spent £21 in there yesterday, I am sooooo annoyed!!! Thought about when I'm next in showing the till person my receipt and seeing if she can add the points because I know that with normal points you can collect them later. Does anyone know if I can do this? any BOOTS EMPLOYEES?

    Also went on Quidco to sign up to a 3 for £1 magazines but other than Mens health which I have already done, they all had a years contract attached to the deal. Am I missing anything?

    Thanks

    No idea about Boots points but I doubt it sorry!

    I thought with the mags you had a trial issues for £1 and then you could cancel?? I did a food magazine (can't rememeber which but it was a special offer on the subs site!)

    It was SHE magazine and it said in the small print it was a year long contract and after the 3 months for £1 its £6 odd every 3 months, I have done the 3 for £1 mags before but never noticed this before, and don't think its worth the risk, I'll have a look for another offer soon.

    Hi, I'd like to join in please! As I'm starting from tomorrow I thought I'd aim for £180 for the rest of the month. Off to read the thread and find some inspiration!
