    Hello All Number 7 here. The going without coffee to save my 1% is not going well today I was so stressed by it that I had to have 2 coffees. I may need to resort to not taking my debit card to work tomorrow and Friday.

    Hi. #21 checking in for the second time. I've sold some items on ebay so another 1% paid off. Now at 5.5% I'm happy with that.

    Hi all
    I've had a good start to my 1% challenge. I've just cashed out £6 from a market research, I'm hoping to sell a teddy for £4 tomorrow (facebook sale).

    I shopped at Asda and wombled a receipt whilst I was there - the Asda Price Check gave me £1.51 in vouchers.

    I have received a letter to say I'm getting a cheque for £80 compensation for a delayed train!

    I'm not counting them until they clear in my account or I've used the vouchers.

    But things are looking positive
