    Small gains.

    I'm in the middle of packing for a house move so I'm not really in start mode for September savings. However, I used one of those book buying sites to offload some stuff. Result. £60 Then I went to cancel a course I'd booked only to find it had been cancelled anyway. So I got a £35 refund...
