Keep going, guys, well done to those who have passed the totals and for those who are like me, flagging through not having many payments come through, then keep trying and waiting and clicking and scratching as the pennies will mount up eventually. My penny making is currently lagging behind my penny spending, but there's nothing worthwhile here to list for sale. :rotfl:I reserve the right not to spend.
The less I spend, the more I can afford.

£14 received from eBay sales today, and £11 in my greenmet account, phew finally broke the £500 barrier.
Now I am on an eBay mission - I am going to ruthlessly root out all my junk and just list everything, and may even get a car boot sale in before the end of this challenge with all the left over stuff..We got rid of the kids. The cat was allergic.

Well done, Mogwai (and everyone else). I still think I'm the worst person at this, I just can't find any income that counts for me, so am left hanging around waiting for cashback, clicks and scratches to accumulate. STILL no sign of my £68 from A$da insurance policy, that's nearly 4 months now! From a cash neur=tral point of view, I've over spent. I need another cash windfall asap I reserve the right not to spend.
The less I spend, the more I can afford.

nyk, is eBaying or amazon or car boots not a possible for you? Also tutoring maybe? Those are my major sources..We got rid of the kids. The cat was allergic.
