JULY make £10 a day challenge

purplevamp

:j £50 went into my bank today ( it's Sunday!) from my Mum. That's bumped my total up. She's still got to give me another £30 but said she's a bit poor this month, aren't we all?! I've got some bits on ebay but only 2 have bids on, still another week to go though.

:j Made £32 on an Ebay sale today, and Tesco's were selling off bread with tomorrow's sell by date for 10p a loaf - lovely granary bread :j so total of £34.50 made today

Hi everyone, just wanted to ask. I'm doing the grocery challenge for the first time this month as well as the earn extra money one. What I was wondering was, if I have an NSD on the grocery challenge (where my daily budget is £10 per day), is that then £10 I can add to this challenge as income??

Everybody has their own way of calculating their £10 a day and it's very much down to each individual as to what works for them. Personally, I wouldn't count the "£10 not-spent" as it's not extra money that I didn't have.

I'd view the grocery challenge as totally seperate as that's about managing the money you've got already, whereas I see this challenge as actually increasing the amount of cash you've got to spend. (That's just my opinion, though! Go with what works for you!)

My update:
Going to do my weekly checkout at Consumer Pulse and should have enough to send off for a voucher.
Done daily clicks.
Just taken out car insurance which was £32 cheaper than renewal quote from my old company (but £20 less than the cheapest quote I got.) I'm not counting the saving but I am hoping to get some cashback too. Fingers crossed!
Will do some more reviews tonight.

Hello everyone!

I've been starved of my mse fix this past week due to work and then feeling blooming awful in the evenings, on the plus side I've barely spent anything this week but on the downside I don't have anything else to add to my total at the moment, boo! (I didn't even get to play free b!ngo!)

Need to get my bum in gear and get some stuff listed on ebay over the next couple of days - still waiting on payments for a couple of ebay items, wish they'd hurry up! Has anyone else noticed an increase in npb's or people taking aaagggeeesss to pay since the new feedback rules came in?

Right - ebay is calling!

Definately lots more npb's and taking ages to pay. I had 2 npb's out of 8 sales on my last lot. Stupid rule change!

No money made myself today but I have taken lots of photos ready to do some ebay listings and am waiting for about £70 overtime in this months pay so hopefully I should still meet my target

WooHoo, I went to a car boot sale today, very pleased with myself, not only did I sell some stuff we won the raffle - £50, which my mum and I split so in total I made £60 after the cost of the pitch:D
We also took our loose change down to tesco tonight and we got £26.16
For the last few days I have made
It's your view - £4
Pigsback - 10p
Carboot - £60
Loose Change - £26.16
Total - £90.26
Total for month so far - £182.55, still a little behind but pleased all the same

Another sale from ebay for me tonight so that's another few quid-sig updated. I'm a happy bunny-only £70ish quid to go

Evening all, great to see all those totals going up. I've done 3 mystery shops since friday but won't add them till the dosh is in the bank.
Just wondered, all you Ebayers, is it worth putting items on with the summer holidays coming up? Thanks

I was given £10 by a friend for doing what was supposed to be a favour...I tried to refuse and was uncomfortable taking the money, but she insisted. I have also just saved £9 off a tesco shop, so that's another £19 to add, bringing total so far to £382.28.

I made £95.86 from ebay over the last week and have another 20 items finishing this week so hoping for lots of bids on them. Now to spend hours packing and carting all the stuff to the post office lol.
