    Well I got my £55 tonight for 2hrs of drivel:rolleyes:
  • Found some old morrisons cards at home over the weekend - almost binned them as my lil sis used to keep collecting them as pretend credit cards and I figured they were blank. With my MSE hat on I thought I'd better check before getting rid though. Very glad I did as they did have points on them! Total was enough for another voucher, and half way to the next again! :D:D:D No idea when I collected those points, but the voucher was definitely unexpected and means I've hit my £5 target for today :T

    Student again now and trying to fight the debts that are creeping up again :eek:
  • Really busy nightshift here and I've just read the last 39 pages being inspired by you all. So much so that I have a list of 10 things to either re-start or sign up to. I don't really do any of that e-bay stuff, but the surveys and points, clicks and bingos sound good. I'm going to need about 2 hours computer time a day though.

    Cheers
    Dave
    Debt at worst: £33000
    Debt now: £0, (Ok, a £650 overdraft)
    £3000 Credit card (aiming to get this down with 0% card)

  • Morning All,

    Just received a big paypal payment for ms-ing so that is £79.86 to add to my total.:D
  • Hooray - sold my first book on Amazon last night for a whopping £13!!! Was funny as I was watching In the Name of the Father and it had just finished when the amazon message popped up to tell me I had sold my copy of the Gerry Conlon Story - spooky! Also heard we've got a stall at a fair on 1st November so that could be a good one for the future.
    Feel free to thank me, it makes my toes tingle and my ears go warm :T
  • My latest payment from Amazon has hit my bank account today so profit of £9.68 added to my total today. Hooray!

    It's gone a bit quiet for me, but I've made my target. So anything I list now should go onto October's challenge. Still awaiting a few payments which should hit September's figures.
    Total debt at October 2008: £67,213.30
    Total debt today: £0
