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

Piquant_2

Morning everyone:hello:

Made an ebay sale late last night and the buyer paid first thing this morning :j

So I've started today with £37.65. I've listed a few more items over the weekend and I've got another four due to finish in the week, only one's got a bid though.

Good luck!

i would also like to join this (i always leave things til the last minute!) if possible.

i'm trying to clear my loan, which as 48 months worth of payments left, in 8 months, so an extra £1000 would really help towards that!

i've got things that i need to stick on ebay/amazon/tradeyourstuff and i might even be brave enough to give this matched betting a go, once i figure out how to do it! i also do surveys and free clicks, so i'm hoping that some of those will pay up in time!

.................£3.66, a thupenny bit that was in the box when i bought it, and a plastic coin that tricked me into thinking it was 1p :T

My 'money-found' box has a whole 1p coin in it. I only started a few days ago though I'm going to cash my pennies today though... does anyone know whether Lloyds will cash them or let me pay them into my account? I know some banks are funny about it.

So far today, I've made nothing at all. I listed 11 things on ebay last night so I'm hoping some will sell. One has a bid on it already.

I'm not sure whether to join this challenge or not, as £1000 is a bit too ambitious for me

Im new, but can I also take part?

I took £170 from a client on Sunday, and am owed £150 on wednesday from another, also have a car boot planned for the end of the month.

How do I join the bingo/betting sites? is it free?

Good morning to all and welcome to day 1 of the next 100 days
We have sunshine and blue skies here, so I'm hoping that it bodes well for this new challenge. I think I have managed to get everyone's names added, including the late arrivals, to post 1, but please let me know if I have missed anyone out.

If anyone can forward me a copy of the click schedule, I'd really appreciate it, just in case I'm missing anything important.

I'm off to a good start today as there's £5.74 arrived in account from cashback for clicks, so I'm really pleased about that. I have listed a few items on eBid, can't fathom out how much is costs to list on Amazon, will consider trying eBay again, and have never heard of 'tradeyourstuff', so must investigate that

This morning, I have done my daily entries on 2 sitee but have no surveys in and only one points email so far. There won't be much more gets done until I finish work and get the routine stuff out the way.

Good luck to everyone and don't forget to keep us all up to date with how you are doing.

Alright Nyk, so I'm going to randomly jump in without having given this any thought and hope I can at least save something
Hellooo all 4kers and everyone else, good luck with the challenge!

Gotta dash now but will catch up with the thread later.

Oh, come on JB, that's cheating - you'll reach a grand in no time A porridge stirrer? :rotfl:

Frugaldom

Yeah! Well done, Bails! :T :j
Nobody is under any pressure to raise an extra £10 per day (I'm too scared to try that challenge just yet), so it should be a little easier to spread it out and hope for a few good catch up days by way of some online auction sales, winnings or cashback pay outs.

Have fun!

Okay, well I'm in then... I think Though in reality I'll be lucky to reach £500, it's worth a shot. And if by some strange miracle I do manage to hit the £1000 target, I'll have reached my savings target for this year (which I thought was impossible when I set it)
