    Morning everyone. I've updated my sig from yesterdays ebay sales, which got me off to a modest start compared to some lol, but I'm still happy with progress.
    I won £30 on Bingo last night and will add that on when it reaches my bank account. I'm going to try and only use real money I have received in this month's challenge so will leave the quidco cashback alone as I haven't actually received it.

    Happy saving everyone.
  • £15.81 from an Amazon sale
    £4.00 from p!necone

    Taking running total to £29.81/£620.

    OH is working weekends this month, at time and half on a Saturday and double time on a Sunday. I am barely going to see him but we are looking forward to the extra income.

  • Off to a good start, £67 bonus from work, £21 sale on ebay, and used nectar card to get £5 off in Argos yesterday. Had to buy a new microwave, as last one went bang whilst drying out tobacco to make own ciggies in coffin machine. Saves me nearly £5 a day (which I don't include in the challenge) but I never bought the microwave anyway, someone gave it to me when I moved 3 years ago, so it's done well. Having a no spend weekend, am at work at the mo, then going home to decorate spare bedroom, and already have all the supplies I need in the loft. Bought the paint in a clearance sale over a year ago, so just need to dust it off and slap it on the walls! Mum bought me new curtains and duvets set from the charity shop ready for the new house, so will put them up and boot fair the old ones next Sunday. Hey, I may not be moving, but think of all the money I've saved staying where I am!
    have a good weekend everyone, catch up on Monday x

    Managed to get a £5 Amazon voucher from Clear Voice Surveys. I had $18 with them and now they have Amazon.co.uk I exchanged my money. $10 turned out to be worth £5 :mad: . I've still got $8 with them and can't exchange it until it gets to $10 which will take forever as they NEVER send out surveys. (Another company I want to 'bin').

  • Hi,

    I just tried searching for the "up your income board" on a forum search, but nothing useful came up.

    Could anyone tell me how I could find it? :confused:

    I'm sure I can remember reading a big list of ways to gain extra cash, but can't remember where I found it......

    HI heres a direct link to it http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/forumdisplay.html?f=145

    but to find it click on forums and list of all the boards appears like "loans" "DFW" "morgage" "freebies" if you scroll down you'll see "up your imcome"

    hope that helps
