    Hi guys, some of you are doing incredibly well, most of you are putting my attempts to shame because nothing else seems to ba paying out for me yet. I almost have enough points to cash in £10 from cash!nco, I have over £70 pending TCB that I SHOULD have been able to claim by now but A$da insurance still not cleared and I'm having no luck selling anything at the moment. I STILL can't find anyone interested in the tumble dryer - so much for recession! Nobody wants a bargain.

    Keep up all the good work :)
    I reserve the right not to spend.
    The less I spend, the more I can afford.

    Things are slow for me just now aswell!! :confused: Waiting for £170.95 from TCB, £25 has confirmed but waiting for more to confirm before I request payment. I've over £50 in d*ooyoo (at last!) but a couple of pounds are still pending. Should be able to get this soon though. Almost at £10 each in b*tlins and l!ttlewoods from the free bingo so should be able to withdraw that before the end of the challenge. I'm also still waiting on my christmas present from my parents which will be cash so should get that next time I see them, plus I'm meant to be getting backpay this month so will count it when/if it arrives. I also found an expenses sheet from November lying in my van! Its for about £20 so will count it when it comes through.

    Well done to everyone else, some of you are doing really well!!!:beer:

    A&L are refusing the £100 for opening an account that I had signed up for during the last challenge, on the grounds that I didn't have any DDs or SOs on my old account!! It was A&L who suggested after I had applied for the account switching service to just close my old account myself as it would be quicker - has anyone else been told this?

    So annoyed right now, am thinking of closing that account, and transferring all my savings over to my ING savings account. :mad:

    Anyway, on the bright side, just received a cheque for £237 for tutoring, waiting for it to clear now..

    I'm torn... not sure whether to count my competition wins (e.g. vouchers) towards this challenge or not. I have done so far, but I think I'll remove them and only count them if I sell them. Will make this challenge more difficult for me! :S
