*NEW* Thrifty Gifty - Money Making for Christmas & Occasions 2010

elysia2003

Hi Aspella - It's lovely to hear from you again. Please pop by often, it will be great to have you here.

You really must do Dooyoo - I feel you'll have a flair for it. Sign up and try, you have nothing to lose.

I've never heard of Woohoo Bingo - Is that the same principle as Bingoport?

I'm mainly on Quidco now as the daily clicks everywhere else weren't worth doing, so only I earn cashback on quidco (and very rarely Topcashback, although I did work through your list Sarah).

What else was it? Oh, Loyalty shopper is a new one I've not heard of either. Very many thanks Aspella, I'll look into it now.

Welcome to the thread. :T

hi aspella, welcome to the thread Nice to see you too x

I have given up on daily clicks months ago, they were too time consuming.
I might go through sarahs list tho
I have never heard of woohoo bingo either

I do tend to out off surveys too which means when I finally get round to it, its finished so i should make an effort to do them straight away if I have time!

In the past I've used money received from daily clicks to pay for Christmas/Birthday presents etc. The amount that can be earnt from daily clicks has decreased for me (can't do clicks hosted by Cashillion) so I'm looking for other ways to make money. I've read through some of the posts and recognise quite a few names from cashback sites. Big :hello:to Pammyj & Elysia.

I like the idea of doing monthly challenges, I'm less likely to become demotivated. I've looked at previous monthly challenges and Susan's suggestions this month. Unfortunately I can't do the following challenges: no spend (don't think it is much of a challenge for me), money off vouchers (printer doesn't work - need to purchase new one once I've got enough Amazon vouchers) or dooyoo (not a member, english wasn't my favourite subject at school and I'm not very confident in my writing ability - might build up the courage to do this next month).

I've decided to do the following challenges this month. Thought I'd post them here incase anyone wants to join me.


Cashback Challenges:

• Do one no spend/purchase transaction every other day (without breaching t&cs i.e. only do offer once per cashback site). Tip: Quite a few no spend offers can be found in the travel section.
• Write one review per week on Loyaltyshopper.

Survey Challenges:

• Do sponsored polls on Toluna once a week.
• Open all emails received from Mutualpoints, Toluna, iPoints etc. Got into a habit of just deleting as kept being screened out. Message to self if you don't try you have no chance and 5 points is better than none. :rotfl:

Bingo Challenges:

• Try and get £10 voucher on Bingoport - not had much luck since the new tournament timetable was introduced
• Try and get Amazon voucher on Woohoo Bingo.

Competition Challenges:

• Enter 1200+ competitions per month
• Sell any DVD, book prizes you win on eBay, Amazon, Green Met, Play.com etc once you have read/watched it. You won't read/watch it again, it just sits on the shelf. Don't just wait for next free listing day - when it comes around you don't have the time/energy.
• Keep prizes to one side for Xmas/Birthday presents - don't just let people have them now.

Mum2one - There is a thread in the freebie section for no spend offers that can be found on Fatcheese. There is also one for Quidco but don't know how up to date it is. http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=1626281&highlight=fatcheese

Your wonderful, will have a good look this week and see whats still valid, working on the basis if we can get the bulk listed, then anytopsnew offers just take a minute of 2.

You do that many competations - ur braver than me, don't have the patiance. xx

LOL Sarah that pic made me giggle!
Does everyone on here do comps? I used to do quite alot but the only thing I ever won was a book, even through I was entering 30+ a day!
Aspella where do you find 1200+ comps a month?! do you do postcard ones etc? cos I could only really do online! Have u won much? Success stories are what I need, they give me the motivation!! xx

Happy Easter Everyone

I've listed 6 items on Ebay this weekend, finally :j

I've registered on topcashback and managed to get over £20 so far, :j thanks Sarah for the tips :T

Not sure how long they will take to pay out but will be nice when I get it, should be getting about £60 from Quidco as well which they say was sent for payment on 1st April

And i've done 1 DooYou review so far, but i've spent quite a bit of time reading and rating so hopefully that will pay off as i'm really close to the £50 cheque, well about £5 to go

I used to spend about 2 hours a day doing comps from on here, the comp thread has hundreds and hundreds and also loquax is good and easier to search. I won £100 daily mail quiz, £200 M&S gift card, a few dvds and wii games. Compared to the amount I entered this is not a lot in percentage but you have to be in it to win it as they say.
saying that 30 a day x 31 days is 930 isnt it? so 1200 works out at 40 a day in april so not as much as you think.

I class the mag ones as 10 in one entry as there are 10 puzzles and 10 chances to win etc and they take a few minutes to do.

hlcarroll

That's true Pammy! And I would love to win that much, it was so depressing that the only thing I won was a book, and not even one I was interested in really lol! So I think I might try and aim to enter as many as possible this month, but only ones that either
a. I want
b. OH wants
c. can be given as presents
or d. worth something if I sell them lol!
Which I suppose probably covers everything!! If anyone else has any success stories with comps please share to keep me motivated! Right, i'm off to enter some comps!! xx

Pammy, I'm just about to sign up for loquax and it has asked me if anyone has reffered me, if I put you will you get anything? :O) xx
