Well hello all, I like this challenge as I don't feel embarassed not to post often and to do things randomly rather than every day
Looking OK - £50 Premium bonds, £35 games bonuses, £15 ish MB, £10 surveys, £10 Pigsback... etc making my total £245.63... not bad not great!
Have realised I have about £100 cashback to come before the end of the challenge so that will be niceOtherwise I need to do some more matched betting and hope for more than 10p on the scratchcards!!! Also BingoPort - should play more there but get tired of mindless posting!!
Hope you are all well and collecting in the pennies... guess I need to start surveying again but CAN'T BE BOTHEREDHappy money making

Hi All,
I haven't been on here for ages...I wasn't quite sure what I was doing and if I was going to manage it, but with a re-think and a calmer approach, I've decided I can, so I've updated my signature.
I've got a chq to deposit as well but won't add that until its in the bank...0 -
Okay, mega post from me. I'm still not quite up to target, but not far behind now, and I've got some things in the pipeline. This is what I've got so far:
2.31 quidco, whoopdedoo!
125 Christmas gifts, bah - but needs must
10.50 scratchcards
5.20 Amazon sales
3.48 savings on purchases
5 Amazon voucher from bingo port
20 mystery shopping
10 Amazon voucher from Toluna - a few months ago, I realised I was two thirds of the way there, so instead of just doing the surveys in my inbox (and getting turfed out of them, more often than not) I went to the site and gradually filled in the daft little surveys they've got. You can only do so many per month, but it hiked me up in points really quickly.
58.85 matched bet.
Total: £240.34
Expected still:
- I have £43 in yougov! Not long now ...
- another matched bet done this week, I'm expecting £38
- I'm nearly there on the qype challenge, that'll be £50.
Total expected: £88 immediately, not counting yougov in that yet.2023: the year I get to buy a car0 -
Hi all
It sounds like we're having mixed success on this challenge. I'm almost there.....I've a ton of auctions finishing on Sunday and reckon the £1000 will be mine! I'm going to keep going for the 100 days though as I've found this thread pretty motivational. I've made £660 on ebay after all costs, and £60 on topcashback. I haven't counted my mystery shopping at the money for that goes into my ISA/Sealed Pot.Save me from spending...
Sealed Pot Challenge 2008 - £1004:T 2009 - £1139 2010 - £1260 :j 2011 - £1557 2012 - £740 :beer: No 195 Target £1k0 -
