Hello to all newbies & regulars and welcome to another Make £10 a day challenge 
Batgirl started this challenge over a year ago and is now taking a well deserved break and thanks to Jesarose and Mizmir who also keep this thread going!
If you're new to the challenge don't be scared - here's how it works:
The aim of this challenge is to make £10 extra a day everyday for the month. A lot of people think this is impossible but this is some people's 17th month and it can and has been done (and in some cases some show offs have even doubled or tripled the monthly challenge).
If you feel £10 is too much why not start at £5 or if you're brave join those who aim for £20 a day! Anything extra you make is great so set whatever target you think you can manage.
The idea is that everyone posts how they are making extra money or saving money and these shared ideas help all of us to learn new ways to help cut debt or earn/save money.
Feel free to add any extra money earned (above normal wages) or saved - its your challenge so its up to you what you want to count.
This board moves so fast so here's some ideas for people to make money. (click the links for some shortcuts to threads on each subject):

Survey sites - I've found lightspeed and p!nec0ne to be the best (p!nec0ne is hard to find but well worth trying to find it) but there are many more it really depends on you finding the ones that work best for you - toluna, ciao, harris poll, valuedopinions etc etc
Daily clicks - go to EagerLearners thread on this board and ask for her guide. last i checked it could get you £3 per day. Although clicks take time to add up its worth it in the end!
Mystery shopping - Get paid to be a mystery shopper - I don't do it so know nothing about it but many on here do so ask if you need any advice.

and me please!!!!! I will aim for £5 a day though if that is ok?
I have 2 question If I was to earn £20 in one day... for example a large sell on ebay, or I get a cheque from Dooyoo... do you count this as just ONE day or do you sort of split it up and say oh well that is 4 days..... (if I am doing £5) and also do you count the amount when you physically have it.. for example the money in the bank or just when u are told you have it. For example, earning £1 on a survey...
Thankyou for your help!!!! xxxx Goodluck all!!!!9 years and counting0 -

I didn't do very well in December as I have been really busy, but am looking forward to a new start. I'm aiming for £5 a day in January.

Evening! The aim is to make £x a day but like you said if you made £20 one day that would be 4 days worth (if you were doing £5 a day)
As for when you add it, well everyone has their own preference. I wait until I have the money in my account/in paypal or as a voucher but others add it when they do a survey or when something tracks in quidco. It just depends on what works best for you!
Good luck!0 -
I'm in again please, £10 as usual. Still working hard on December's total but looking forward to January's new start!:j Live on £4500, £2531/£4500:T 101 in 1001 (52/101):j:beer::j

I'd like to join again please. December's thread motivated me to get eBaying, and anything that persuades me to wash, iron, take pics and list has got to be good. I'll stick to £5 per day again, and hope to be brave enough to try for the tenner in February!0

£20 a day for me please - I need to do some serious moneymaking over the next few months if I am to pay off my £30k that I have challenged myself to!Successful women can still have their feet on the ground.
