Hi I have been lurking for a while and thought it was about time I post.
Firstly can I say thanks for all your invalubale tips!!
OK some background - I have recently moved from one end of country to other, to a small town and am finding it very difficult to get a job. havent worked for 10 weeks. My Fiance is full time training but has been left a lot of money so we are ok financially ie bills, food etc.
I am incredibly independant and hate relying on him and like to have my own money. At the moment I have £7.00 in my purse and £23.00 in the bank(in my overdraft) I do ebay and a few cashback sites to get some pocket money but am looking for other ways to legally boost this until I get a job. Luckily I dont have any debts. phew.
I know my predicament seems small compared to some of yours but any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hello mennie,
Welcome to the Old Style board. :hello:
These older threads may give you some ideas of how to make a bit of cash:
...make extra cash!
I wanna be a mystery shopper - anyone know how?
Working from home
Paid surveys and the like

Mystery shopping is good, i get paid every 2 weeks and its good work, works well round the kids as well:j some companies pay petrol/travel some dont, the jobs are quite good and you can choose which assignments to accept or decline.
I have been doing this for 4 years now and love it.:T0
