  • Hi, I want to join, I actually wanted to do something like this a while ago but different board and no one seemed too interested... :confused:

    Anyway, have been trying to do this before end of year but have only got $19 so far as have only just started, so will re-zero lol and start again on Monday.

    I am in NZ so I think there are less survey sites here, but there are two good ones, and I am listing all my excess stuff online, strange what there is a market for, having just learnt how to post pics online :eek:

    Loving this already, thanks Nyk...

    Morning everyone.

    Going to get some of my bits ironed and photographed today so I can start listing on Ebay and hopefully as I wander around the house I'll find some other bits as well.

    Good morning everyone, and hello Zoegirl! Welcome to our 1000 Club :D I hope the weather in New Zealand is better than it is here and I wish you luck taking part in this challenge.

    I'll try to add a few relevant links to post one as we go along, I know there's a referals board Jenjade, maybe worthwhile checking it out. Loads to do before Monday and not enough time to do it, so I'll catch you all soon.

    Happy 1000 preparations! :)

    Sophiesmum - thanks for that, I've PM'd EagerLearner right away so I don't forget again.

    anyone got any ideas where the money will come from??

    i think i might get up to £40 on onepoll

    should get at least one piggyback voucher hopefully 2 so that will be £20

    i hope to get at least £20 from pinecones on vouchers

    dooyoo should give me £30 in amazon vouchers

    ebay and amazon should get me a couple of hundred

    car boot might get me £100 if i am lucky
    scratch card should give me ££25 by new years

    quidco and other cashback site will be worth a couple of hundred i hope!!

    slice the pie could get me £50 by new years!! will be painful though!!

    dunno what else? survey site mystery shopping?

    anyone else got an idea where the cash will come from??

  • My money will come from mainly Ebay, surveys if they hit payout level at the right time which I am not overly hopeful of lol, mystery shopping and STPing.

    I am hoping for some more ideas from the people on this thread too.

  • think you've covered most things jen. i saw on a stp thread they have a challenge to raise £50 a month! sounds good but would be very very painful!

    ebay will be my main focus i think. i have a cupboard and loft full of lovely goodies (ahem) to sell, never make much at car boots up here.
  • Hi Guys
    Mine will likely be:

    pigsback
    quidco- got some renewals coming up soon.
    amazon book sales
    car boot sales/tabletop sales
    possibly sell a few things in local paper classifieds (furniture/gym equipment)
    might try a bit of matched betting too
    spare change pot (will nab OH's change too;) )
    got a mobile phone to recycle will try envirophone etc.

    If all else fails will venture onto e- bay:eek:

    Will also be looking out for other ideas on here:D Good luck everyone.
    Reduce,re-use, recycle.
