£1000 in 100 Days, 22nd Sept - 31st Dec 2008

Jenna

Nykmedia, can you add me too please? Think I've been missed as I posted at some madly late time last night when I should have been asleep lol!

Well I've started, but slowly lol! Work was manic so didn't get to take lunch (so it works out as 30 mins OT). I looked on thesalarycalculator.co.uk and it apparently works out at a net rate of £3.22 - only £996.78 to go! :rotfl:

I'm already do Pigsback - hoping to get £20 worth of vouchers by the end of the year, but need to decide what I'm getting everyone for Xmas before I cash these! & also just trying out Cashinco, although so far I can't get any of my points to track ... any ideas guys?!

Today was a NSD but tomorrow won't be as I need to buy some bread, loo rolls and poss some milk - shame! Although good in some ways as I'm only having cup-a-soup for lunch today & tomorrow, so "real food" will be a welcome change!

Well done everyone for starting so well, I can see I'll have my work cut out for me in keeping up hehe! Night xx

Did some of the NO Spend clicks on Quidco - opened an A&L Esaver (£20) and a few others so hopefully up to about £30 - whenever they pay out that is!
Got house and hubby's car insurance due too this month so will use quidco and add that amount. Thanks to PTS thread, I signed up with Bzzagent yesterday and may be able to buy a steam gen iron for £20 - if i get offered it will sell it to someone for £45 so can add that. AND have put details forward for a focus group (via pts member) and if i get chosen could get £40 out of that!

just noticed there's a lot of IF'S in my post!!!

oh, and another if, sending off form 11CTC to see if we owed any tax back from when son was born - peeps have been geting back over £500if they are eligible. Probably won't be but worth a shot...!

Morning all - well my total still stands at a big fat 0! Have done loads of surveys, clicks and few things on quidco and listed stuff on amazon but not up to payout level on anything yet! Going to list a load of stuff on ebay during my week off in October so hopefully they will sell well.

Well done everyone so far - off to scour inbox for more surveys! x x

Just had an auction close and made $91 so am pretty pleased with that, especially since the item cost me $1 about a year ago. So less success fees etc I am so far up $78.50, which is this week sorted lol, but I will try and make some extra to stay ahead since I don't really have anything closing soon.

Made about $0.27c on clicks so far this week also, lol. :rotfl:

In my holidays soon I am considering trying to write letters to magazines that pay $25 per letter etc and see if that is another avenue I could try. I have been placed in writing comps before, so I should be able to handle it hopefully :rolleyes:

Morning everyone

I've had another ebay sale land in my paypal account so £8.60 today, brings my total to £46.25.

Had another couple of Amazon sales, but they take ages to hit the account. Will list some more items tonight.

Good morning to all, and welcome to Jenna, I didn't see your post but have now added your name. Do you all realise that if we had all to succeed, there would be £42,000 in the big pot at the end of it all? :rotfl:

I have racked out more items to list but haven't checked any accounts today so far, so don't know if anything has changed from yesterday. You'll all be first to know if I've increased the 'grand cash pot'.

I'm amazed by the great sales a couple of you are making. I don't really know anyone who is making much via the online auctions at the moment but it's good to know there are still some buyers out there with cash set aside to snap up a bargain.

Not sure I'll be contributing much to the big pot total today folks, unless anyone's got some ideas that take absolute minimum effort?
Nyk, does interest earned on money count?
I WILL Ebay something this week though - anyone got a big stick to wield?

plzhelpmesave!

Just had another thought - we have a tow bar on my vauhall zafira that we have never used - will have to see if hubby can take it off so we can sell it- should be about £50ish!!

Also gonna try putting some stuff on gumtree or bargain pages (local ffree ads paper) = no fees, no postage and get rish of stuff quickly!
update - just listed a couple of mirrors and excercise machine that hasn't been used in 6 years in bargain pages - hope they sell on friday!

I can't find a big stick, but how's this for starters?
Did that work for you? :rotfl:

If you want to count interest then you are very welcome to do so... if you dare

I could wield the spurtle!:rotfl:

my first ebay lot didnt sell, but i have relisted it and lowered the price - the 2 mills & boon books you get free when you join the club via some cashback site, i forget which - if i make anything at all from them i guess i can't complain!

ps what is everone selling for big money?
