My total for August is £53.02, just added in the 59p we found in venders/on the ground during August and the £4.50 OH had been saving because he liked the patterns on them, found them on a shelf and persuaded him they were more useful in the bank
.
Not disasterous but not great, partly due to no psychology experiments around only 1 mystery shop and me not getting my act together with ebay.
September will be different - lots of mystery shops planned, a week off where ebay and surveys will be the focus and renewed enthusiasm so I have gone for £10 a month.Initial Mortgage January 2024 - £160,000

Just posting total, only came in at about £100 this month from Ebay and a couple of carboot sales completed this week that were very slow!
Might go for £5 a month next month in the hope of getting a bit closer and therefore feeling more like I have achieved something lol!2010 Debt Mission - Clear Credit Card £193 - Gonna start small and give myself some hope of actually doing it... :rotfl:

Whilst I have smashed my total, I am slightly disappointed because if I hadn't have got my bonus I would have come in much lower, not even at £10! Need to pull my finger out next month. I only count things such as surveys etc once they are paid out, have quite a huge pending total, so hopefully within the next couple of months I will be able to cash in!
wow!:T :Aamazing... they don't value my opinion yet they still haven't sent me any surveys!Achieve FIRE/Mortgage Neutrality in 2030
