    I agree about the slow cooker - I think they are fab!!

    I am still sat here in my dressing gown, although in my meagre defence I have listed one whole book on amazon :rotfl:

    Think I should head for the shower and get a move on!!

    Am not dressed yet either! Excuse is that OH is in the shower first - but time ticking on and I can't sort the garage out in my pjs!

    oops should have gone to bed an hour ago but OH is still up working and I thought I would play with snowballs.....

    Just put in the expenses and extra money I know is coming in soon + the extra £20 a day challenge money and my DFD comes forward to March 09!! That would be in time to reduce my contract in April.

    Added incentive to pull out al the stops for that. Ebay challenge? Did someone mention an ebay challenge....??! I need to make an extra £600 a month somehow! :eek::D

    Wowzer! Debt free date in less than a year!! That would be brilliant mizmir! Get Ebaying now!!!!!!!!!!

    Finally dressed - about to tackle the garage! Have been thinking about my plan to "earn" £600 extra a month and how I could achieve that. So am setting the following monthly targets:
    • Dog training: £220
    • Ebay/amazon/car boots: £100
    • Matched betting: £120
    • Extra work at work (me and OH): £120
    • Vouchers, cashback, clicks, BOGOFs etc: £40
    Who know how realistic these are - but is good to have things to aim for!

    Now that garage is waiting - see you in a few hours! :D

    Sounds like a plan to me! Here's hoping you hit it (and with luck the dog training will increase as others decrease!)
