    Well I have been away for a week and my chap was really kind letting me live in his place rent free for a week:j He knows just how skint I am and gave me £50 spending money £12 of which was in £2 coins and these have been squirrelled away.

    I earned 150 Tesco clubcard points with Shopper Thoughts so I have added £1.50 to my total.

    I had some good news today, I have been battling to get some JSA out of the jobcentre for sending me to work for a fake company so I have now been awarded JSA from 28 Jan to 28 Feb - so that's another £270.40 to add to my total as the money has been paid this month.

    None of my ebay items have sold:mad:

    Just checked my bank account and I have earned a £2 divi from the Co-op.
  • I'm ending my June Challenge today, I know I won't get anything for tomorrow. My grand total is £257.96

    Lightspeed £3.00

    £8.38 from ebay today, sold another £12 of stuff but it's not been paid for yet. Both the items I have ending tomorrow have bids and watchers so fingers majorly crossed I might *just* make my own target - if not hopefully I won't be too far off!

    Only one more day of June, where on earth has the time gone?!
