Hullo again!

Here I am, turning up like a bad penny -speaking of which I had to open my 'Found Money' jar as it was full, - total £19.94 in just over three months!

Teeny Tiny Tuesday Top-up

And it is teeny tiny as well! Today's additiion is £2.83 which I saved on my fuel at Tesco as my kind friend let me have her '6p off a litre' coupon. And that's all I added today!

It will be complete radio silence from me for the next week as I'm out of the country - see you on Thursday 27th.

Monday's Mutterings

Two very small additions today, £2.00 from selling a bin (of all things!) and £3.60 from Cash4Clothes. I've sent off a few more books to WeBuyBooks as well, and popped a cheque into the bank today for some other bits which I'll add in when it clears.

Sunday's Snippets

Well, I did the car boot sale - hurrah! It was a very early start, particularly as I didn't sleep properly for fear of not waking in time, meaning I actually got up at 5am! But it wasn't as cold as I'd been expecting, the sun was already shining by the time we got there at 7am, and I made a grand total of £82 after pitch fee.  Most of this has been diverted into other areas, but £8 went into my fund along with £2.25 used in Asda vouchers, £15 in old stock sold and £9.41 from eBay. Today's total, £34.66.

Saturday's Savings

Another excellent day for my challenge today. I delivered another piece of furniture sold via FB, collecting £20, and also a pair of shoes sold the same way, another £5. I also sold some old stock, £22! So a lovely total of £47 today.

And I AM, really really, doing that car boot sale tomorrow! Up and out at 6:30 am... not looking forward to that!
