    I never finished the Virgin Qype challenge - in fact I barely started with just 4 reviews! Will restart when the next offer comes out as it wasn't something I really needed.

    Today I have made £26.36 in cashback and am going to claim an hours overtime tonight as I had to work late because of some idiot at work

  • Hi all,

    Sorry I've not updated in a while - I've been off work for more than a week for various reasons! The only upside being that I had a number of NSD! :T

    I don't have any extra cash in my account yet so I won't update my sig but so far I have £131.83 in my PayPal account from eBay plus I will be listing a new item tonight which I expect to sell for around £35. On top of this I am able to withdraw £10 from 2 bingo sites so I'm confident of reaching my target of £5 a day! :beer:

    Good luck everyone!
    NSDs: 4/5
  • £20 to add from selling something at work. Struggling a bit, as have nothing left to sell and keep getting screened out of all the surveys. Getting my 1p a day from Kelkoo on Quidco, so that will be £3.65 over the year!
