    Nothing to report today :o ... but I've been doing some clicking this evening!

    Think I'm going to add some more books to Green Metropolis - might also add them to Amazon!

    I've not made anything today either. Will be saving £8 tomorrow night though as my local firework display is charging £8 per person:eek: and me and OH are going to watch it from the hill nearby so we should get to see everything for free, from my car with hot cups of tea. :beer:

    Well I'm not sure whether this is allowed, but I did save about £14 today by pre-booking my train ticket for Christmas. I was going to just get the regular 'super off-peak' ticket, because I forgot about the advanced tickets!

    I got 500 free Nectar points, which I'll help to pay for a cinema ticket, which is worth £7.80. So that's basically £3.90 extra today :D. Well take the 90p off as I had to take my shopping over £40 to receive them, so I bought 2 Wispas :D

    So that's £19/£30 that I've made, without including the saving for the train. With the train it's £33/£30 :D

    Another 50 quid added to my total.
    CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera. You can enjoy it even if you don't understand it and too much can give you a headache the next day J
  • I made another £43.56 on matched betting last night. Sold a card on eBid but will add that when i know how much postage is. £10.00 received from free scratch cards.

    Hi All,

    Not a great start to the month but oh well!

    i've earned £6.00 amazon

    4 approx bets - not cashed out yet so not added to sig (deposits I had to make in order to get cashback so i bet on a more or less sure thing and got my money back!) - id love to get into this whole matched betting thing and have a free £10 bet but think i need to really sit down and work it all out :rolleyes:

    I have applied for nectar card from amex (£35 cashback and 5000 nectar points if i spend 200 quid on it(i'll pay off normal bills and then pay it back straight away!)
    in total I have about £95 from quidco (pending) so just need to wait for that.

    I have a mystery shop booked for monday (my first) and im quite nervous - only £4 after reimbursement but i think simple and straightforward is best for my first go!:o

    I listed 11 items on ebay last night though I need to list many more (what else are saturdays for :D )

    I also joined slice the pie and earned 0.21p!!!! (quite enjoy it actually putting it on in the background)

    So although no actual money made but a good start :rotfl:
    1 debt vs 100 days part 6-11total paid £8,135.86 Final Debt [STRIKE]6,948.61[/STRIKE] £3,174.94

    Don't worry Dex, it gets better! I had an awful first month last month and only had about £3 out of £300 so I went for £5 a day this month and so far am only £3 behind my target! I do a lot of surveys as well - many pay out in vouchers and some pay in cold hard cash! I also write on ciao and post the same reviews on dooyoo as well. If there is any way I can help just drop me a line! (I just don't have the nerve to try matched betting - I cant get my head round it for some reason lol!)
