you take them to your local scrap metal dealer.....ok the price does go up and down depending on the demand, ok you dont get loads of money only a few squid, but its better than nothing...

i normally cash in our cans maybe once or twice a year, and get anything from £5 - £10 per time...... as i say not loads of money, but it is better than nothing...

as i say sometimes the smaller things like that all add up.

I think I would like to join this challenge as well.

I will start by selling some of my own unwanted items and take it from there. My partner and I are hoping to get married next year so would like to raise £2000 for it which is a realistic target I think.

I will also be doing the following:

Lightspeed surveys
Pine cone research surveys
Dooyoo
slice the pie (if i can get into it again!)

I will be watching this thread in earnest as I am trying to OP on my mortgage as much as I can.
Dont think I can do the challenge (probably only a quarter of it) so will just watch from the sidelines and get lots of tips

good luck everyone x

Can I add my name to the list please, although I won't start until 2nd January (too many Christmas drinks between now and then!!)
Also does anyone know where I can download a spreadsheet to get me started? Thanks in advance.

Can I join plas would love to try this fab idea

will think about this - my feeling is the spirit is buy and sell leveraging the initial £100 - not quite sure I can manage that but will definitley be looking at alternate income sources that a bit of inspiration and perspiration can bring my way

good luck everyone - like others will start on 1 Jan (maybe 2nd Jan!!). By my calculations only need to double up every 6 weeks to reach £10K by the ned of the year

I like the suggestions about running a different bank account. I think I will do that - except for paypal, and then I will just transfer stuff from my main account

I noticed that Tesco will give you 1 club card point for every 2 cans recycled and a further point for every bag reused in the shop.

Not a lot but they all add up. I've managed to cover most of our entertainment and holidays this year from buying things with decent Tesco points on them and then re-selling them immediately on e-bay and converting the points to deals.

we sadly:o havent got one of those machines, as if they did it would be even better, if they did get htem in a tesco near us then i would do that,

oooo by the way if you use one of their cardboard boxes to carry your groceries they give you 3 green points;). i used to be a avid point collector, but i have gone off the boil, so to speak:rotfl:
