What about taking out the ISA on Quidco to store the money in? I think you have to pay in 50 pounds per month but you get 110 cash back so you could always withdraw (I think) the paid in cash nearer the time or leave the spending money in there to gain interest?Debt Free - done
Mortgage Free - done

I had a look at this and so did moneymabel, but there are tons of T&Cs and its linked to the stock market somehow so you could loose some money. Its not your normal ISA.
I didnt understand it, but then again i got the name of the bank providing it wrong! :rolleyes:
Well done on your coppers Lucy, they soon add up! :T
And i wish it was Friday too...
Debt: just my mortgage

Hmmm just had a thought.
I am a Slimming World member and decided that I would save a £ for every lb I lose. Admittedly I've not been doing very well but I am up to about £7 saved (I keep putting it on and not taking the money back) so I could use this as a fund for holiday things!
Hopefully I will be near my target weight by the time I am ready to go to the US and I will need stuff to wear.... Just a thought.
And it would raise the funds to £7.04p!!!! LOL!!Current debt - £16,300

:beer: And the holiday fund is growing already! :TDebt: just my mortgage0
:eek:
