Thanks guys! I'm really excited about it now!
We can't really afford to get any proper flyers printed off at the moment, but I might have a go myself, see if I can make anything decent

I will let you no how I go, cos of course if we make anything I will count it towards this challenge

Thanks everyone

This sounds like a great idea, but:

I seriously can't imagine it being possible for me to make £10 per day. Especially doing clicks - which is like 1p a click or something isn't it? Although I haven't looked into it that much.

How do you guys all do it?

Welcome to all challenge newbies

If you do a search for the previous £10 a day challenges there’s LOADS of great info on how people make the extra cash - Also Martin’s guide on the main site at http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/protect/make-money
(Thanks Karmacat & Frugalpam) has lots of tips - and the Up Your Income board has loads of ideas too

£10 a day REALLY is achievable but quite a few people start off with a £5 per day aim, others more, it just depends on your circumstances.

People count their extra earnings in different ways too - some only count cash available to pay off various things, others count vouchers, money saved etc - it’s up to you!

Challengers also count their earnings in different ways too, some count as they do clicks, earns points etc, others only count dosh when it hits their bank - again it’s up to you.

Off the top of my head, ways to make extra cash:
*Ebay
*Amazon
*Play.com - you can now sell on the site in the same way as on Amazon
*Green metropolis - Site for selling only books
*Cashback sites - Quidco, Freefivers, Pigsback etc
*Survey Sites - Lightspeed etc, sign up to these via cashback sites to get maximum dosh
*Free B!ngo - on Thursdays at g a l a and also available on some sign up to get a deposit sites, or where you can sign up for more cashback than you have to deposit & play through so you're guaranteed a profit. Not sure which sign up ones are still available though, don't use your own money!
*Writers Share - Don’t know much about it, more info on the Up Your Income Board
*Slice the Pie - Get paid to listen to (sometimes awful) new music and give your opinion
*Matched Betting - ONLY WHEN YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU’RE DOING!
*Car Booting
*Overtime at Work - That you wouldn’t normally have done if not for the challenge/this site
*Mystery Shopping

And depending on what you do/where you live there’s plenty more opportunity for getting a wee bit extra!

Hope that’s of some help, really should get to bed now!

Good for you, debtbegone - wow, thats an early (late!) post. It has to be worked at, its true, but it *is* achievable, you're right.

Today's efforts to make £10:

I have a daily "meals @ work" budget of £5 (working 4days/week = £20/wk)

I brought my lunch in today and only have spent 70p so dar on 1/2 pint milk and 2 butters (friend brought the scones!!!) = £4.30 potentially saved/made so far today!!!! And in relaity it's not unheard of for me to spend at least £10/day so this really is a saving!!!

Now only another £5.70 to find!!! I do have £12 in my Boots Advantage Card...will account for it here as I really should use it if I have it as part of my "Health & Beauty" Monthly budget!!

I bought an accountz program on Amazon at £26 but it retails at £40 also order through the pigsback site, so does that £14 saving go towards the challenge?

Also I am taking DD to playgroup soon, and we always by pasties from Greggs for lunch at £2.50, I intend to walk past today so is that included in the challenge!

As you can see, I am a newbie and clueless!!

It's entirely up to each individual. Some people choose to only count 'real hard extra cash' as it sits in their purse or pocket other people count 'virtual money' (saving money that they would have otherwise spent.)

If it's going to motivate you to stop spending, then definitely count the money saved! Welcome to the challenge too! :wave:
