  • Wow I cannot believe how many postings there have been since I last came on. Everyone seems to be doing so well.

    I have been away for the weekend, but intend to catch up with everything this week. I found out that I have £17.50 worth of nectar points, so will spend them at Sainsburys and put the cash towards this challenge. Also had £64.05 in overtime, so have included that too. On the downside I had to put an extra £2.40 towards delivery an ebay parcel, so have taken that out of my total.

    Thanks to EagerLearner for the cashback clicks, I will make an effort to get on with that and make some extra money towards this challenge.
    Make £10 a day challenge - January 2023 = £292.89/£310 - Feb 2023 = £677.09/280 - March 2023 = £102.45/£310 - April = £300.12/300 - May 2023 = £306.80/£310 - June = £245.88/£150 - July = £295.45/£310 - August 2023 £51.56/£310

    Just saw Martin Lewis on the news. It was right after a clip explaining that Mr Bradford and Mr Bingley had, "lost their hats" :eek: JUMBLE-BEE!!! :eek: Can we expect to see any more listings in the relevant headwear category?? :rotfl:

    My day has been very non-productive owing to spending most of the afternoon preparng for the Royal visit.:rotfl: However, Gumtree latest ad has tracked again, so that's 4 ads at 30p each this week so far :j I love being paid to place MY free ads! :D
    I reserve the right not to spend.
    The less I spend, the more I can afford.

    Trex, I think it's through Topcashback Nyk's doing it.
    Well done everyone :T BB, sorry about the Quidco, if it helps it looks like I may not get it either :confused:
    I took a bra back today that I wasn't sure about so I'm adding the £7.99 to this pot :D Got a bid on Ebay, only 99p so far but it's a start!

    just back from ikea, was getting under bed boxes for to store my array of goods to be sold (my mum nearly fell over 'mount ebay' but i warned her that all breakages must be paid for!:rotfl:)

    whoop whoop whoop!
    posh cosmetics (£1 from a jumble ;)) currently at £19.50 with a couple of hours to go!

    AND another amazon book has sold - only for a few pennies, but its to go to spain so they have given me lots of postage cash, yet it is a teeny tiny book so i have high hopes for a nice profit

    :cool: I'm 'cooking with gas' now as me dear old maths teacher used to say!

  • i just downgraded my Lovefilm subscription from £12.99 to £9.99, so i'm going to add the £3 to my total :)

    i'm tempted to add £3 for every month between now and new year, since technically, it will be a saving each month... but i'm only going to add it the once!

    Hi Trex, I spotted Gumtree on a cashback site then searched all of the ones I'm registered to and found topcashback paying 30p. I have a funny feeling that it is an error of some sort on their part because they have London based ads paying at £3!! :eek: Elsewhere, others are only paying 2p. I'm going to keep trying ads on their to see what sort of response I get, (other than the 'phishing' scammers and Nigerian overpayers of ye olde dodgey cheques) and stick with it as I have plenty to list even if it's just once a day. :D

    Evening everyone, I'm glad to see everyone is doing so well :). I'm going to have to look at being paid to put ads on gumtree... I sold a bracelet earlier which gave me £28.12 after paypal fees, it will cost about £1 to send so I've added £27 to my figure.
    Finally bought a home
