:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek: mass migration to UKScrappers! God, I might actually get some work done that weekend!

:hello:Hello everybody! :hello:

Tis I, Jamtart6 with your monthly fun task to get some money in for your money neutral pot this month.

I'm going to go gently on you this month as there are lots of Rudolph tasks which are important this month to get you on track for CHRISTMASSSSSS! :xmastree::xmassign:Did someone mention Christmas?? Time for all the Christmas smilies to get you in the mood :rudolf::xmassmile:snow_laug:santa2::snow_grin



Anyway, my challenge may be hard for some, easy for others but I want to make it manageable for all and if you are happy to PM me your progress through the month (I'll be keeping you all in check :whistle::dance:) then I'll keep a tally on the first post so we can all be proud and give each other a pat on the back.

_party_I challenge you to make £75 by 1st May. _party_
The guys on Debt-Free wannabe run a "make £10 A DAY" - this only equates to £15 PER WEEK for you guys. It is a really good thread so check it out for some ideas!

" How can I make £75 by May 1st you crazy lady?" I hear you cry??

Well that is where I am leaving it up to you. It can be in either vouchers, from eBay, daily clicks, cashback, music magpie, cashing in phones, selling your excess scrapping stash (:eek:), selling your body (:whistle:) - ANYTHING you haven't got around to doing yet, let this be THE challenge that makes you do it. I think £75 is attainable in 5 weeks, if you want to go for more then good on ya! I just think that this figure is accessible to all and I didn't want to make it too high.

As you make some ££ or vouchers, PM me the amount (as well as writing a post if you want, I will just always be able to see your amounts in PMs just in case I miss a post on here) and I will add it to the total on post 1. Who is with me?

All total updates and names of people in this challenge are now on POST 1!

I should get my money from love2recycle soon so can that count? I have had 2 e mails from them and neither mention the extra £5 per phone. I did ring and query it and spoke to a really unhelpful person who said I would get it. I will see what I actually receive.
Oh and can I also count the £100 I should get for opening an alliance and leicester account (plus quidco).
I have got more there than I will probably get for the rest of the year!

What a shocker!!!

I'm going away on the Saturday so luckily will have some distraction with my friends!

Will miss everyone dreadfully tho! I can feel withdrawal symptoms already!

jamtart6

yep bunbun whenever you get the ££ just PM me and I'll it it to your total.

jamtart6

urgh, just found out a lad I went so school with is having chemo for the dreaded big-C he only got married last year, its bloody awful -24!! I am edging closer to booking a smear test because I need to have one, but SOO dont want to go and get it done. I will shortly find my confidence and just ring the docs up and do it and not cancel it like I cancelled my fillings!

EDIT: BOOKED! and will keep appt if it doesn't clash with anything else going on down there TMI
