    Thanks for keeping this challenge going. I've now made over £1500 through doing this challenge, and it's money I otherwise wouldn't have had. :D

    Good luck to everyone.

    Same here! I've made about the same, which I can't actually believe when I think about it :T I've managed to pay off my overdraft and got a savings fund started, just from doing this challenge. It really does keep you motivated - before I would have moaned about having to do overtime at work, but now I look at it as a positive thing thinking 'ooh thats another £20 to add to my total' :D So thankyou to all the lovely people who keep it going, and also everyone who posts money making ideas/tips and encouragement!

    Thanks for putting me on the list already - yes, I'm up for it again - £10 a day. Just croaked over the finish line in April and nothing up my sleeve for May but I love the inspiration and enthusiasm on here chivvying each other along so hopefully will at least achieve something. Good luck everyone.
    I'm not a failure if I don't make it, I'm a success because I :tried!
