    Hi All

    Sorry I'm a bit late joining in this month - 2 computers at home and both went kaput within 2 weeks just before Christmas! Bah! :mad:

    Still managed to scrape £100.56 in the December challenge, but given my current computer-less state at home at the moment, I think I will try for just £5 a day in January please.

    Hope normal service is resumed soon!

    We live in a village. Do you need to be near shops to do mystery shopper?

    It's not only shops you visit as a mystery shopped but can be pubs, hotels, gyms and all sorts. Might be worth becoming a mystery shopper with one company and see if there are any assignments in your area. It's free to do so so it's worth a shot. I use Retail Eyes if you are interested.

    I've sold two more books on Green Metropolis today :j

    I'll update my signature tomorrow once I've posted them. It'll be £9 minus the postage - they're slightly larger than normal books.

    DO you think we should start a BingoPort thread seperate as its obviously a hit - and so we dont clog the challenge board? Maybe Up Your Income?

    That sounds like a really good idea - are you going to start it up? go on, go on, go on :D

    how do i find out about the surveys etc etc.

    I think there are a few listed in the first post but might be wrong as I haven't checked. Lightspeed are pretty good and if you sign up to them through Pigsback you get some points there too.

    The other one I do is called pinec0ne but they don't take people on very often. Every so often they post adverts on the internet and usually someone on MSE posts a link if they spot it so perhaps it might be worth doing a search of the forums every few days in case one comes up. I've just checked now but the last link doesn't seem to be there now
    Not been here in years! Hi everyone. Make £10 a day challenge = £78.45/155
