Saving money for university and holiday?

antoniarose_2

I'm in college now, doing 4 A-Levels, and I work on saturdays. I'm going to Ibiza for 2 weeks in 8 months times, and would preferably like to be able to save a decent amount for spending there. Seeing as I only get £45 a week from work, the majority of my money will go towards savings. Is there any tips anyone has on how I can earn/save more money? I've been using Toluna for the love2shop vouchers, and i've put as much stuff as I possibly can on ebay, but i'm still going to struggle, what with everyday living as well (train fares and the like). Thanks!

i'm working overtime this summer, but it will barely cover the Ibiza booking fee. I was just wondering if there is any more online sites which help you earn money or vouchers?

sell some stuff on eBay. If you have any AS textbooks left over put them on Amazon or somewhere.

Try registering for You Gov. It's a site where you get paid for completing surveys. Once your account reaches £50, you can have a cheque sent to your home. It does take time to build up your points, but it's a nice little bonus when the cheque does come through.

Valued Opinions is a survey site which gives out vouchers when you reach £10. You can get vouchers for lots of different places so if there's anything you need for your holiday then you may be able to use them. Or if your parents shop at Tesco you could request Tesco vouchers and ask your parents to swap the £10 vouchers for £10 cash. They don't lose out and you get extra cash for your savings.

Maybe a silly Q, but why are you going Ibiza in Feb??????? Party time on the island is May-Sept

Have a look at your Payslip. You shouldn't be paying any tax if you earn under £5,500 ish If you have tax code BR, call up the tax office!
