September Make £10 A Day Challenge ~ 3rd year running!!

Soma

£8 into my bank today for selling a book for £8 lol. cost me £4 to send and Amazon charged me £2.73 in fees for a book I sold for £8 - what a rip off! So I sold a nearly brand new hardcover book for £4!

Just as I was thinking this month might have to be written off due to a hopeless time last month I get an email telling me I've won a £10 gift voucher, ordered a £10 sayshopping voucher as I have a few of those already and am saving for things I'll need if I move next year.

I've had a few like this recently Soma - I sold a lovely "like new" hardback originally priced at £18.99 for just over £3 after fees & postage - must admit I only paid 50p for it from a charity shop but thats not the point :rotfl:Amazon fees are pretty steep - still a lot less hassle than selling on Ebay.

Just had £165 tracked on Quidco for taking out a Virgin Media subscription - been meaning to swap from Sky for ages & thanks to MSE Update saw this offer. Reducing cashback by the price of the box so £115 to be added to total. :):)

A tiny £4 to add from a MS that got paid today. It was the only shop I did in August as I had only just got into it near the end of August, but I should have a bit mroe coming in the next few days from companiey that I shopped for at the start of this month. Will take of the 20% tax though, so just a little £3.20 to add. No surveys today - got very frustrated earlier when I got "screened out" after about 15 mins! Wish there was some way of regulating companies who do this so they weren't allowed to save any of the data from screened out participants to stop them getting all the data for free! It was meant to be a 25 minute survey, for £1.50! But nothing for my 15 mins!! :mad: I know it's small amounts of money, but it Really winds me up!
9p from Quidco aswell. Don't have much time to do the Daily Clicks at the moments, but I always make sure I do my Quidco ones!! Probably because there's only 2/3!!
£10 Amazon voucher profit as well from the offer in Martin's email that I signed up for in my name, and my Other Halfs. Amazon is so good for so many things, so was worth the £2 to get £12 vouchers.:j

I got £15.40 today from being begged to do a last minute MS job...(4 minutes work!) I hope get more before christmas :j

I have failed in my NSD challenge and overspent on the grocery challenge so I am glad to be nearly there with the £10 per day one :T

I need a few more jobs or some lucky ebay / lottery cash to come in. I seem really good at spending twice as much as I have every day! :eek:

Why am I always buying [EMAIL="!!!!"]!!!![/EMAIL] in supermarkets? I doNOT need the DVD, flan dish and 2 baking trays that I got in mr S today...or for that matter the halloween decorations and sweets for the kids I have never met! I only wanted milk...:mad:

Someone please kick me up the arrs........:rotfl:

Natwest is my nearest bank branch, but I need to do some research in to basic bank accounts.

We both have Step accounts (basic) at Nat West - very easy to set up (online or in branch) and you get a Visa Debit Card, and on-line banking is very good


Hiya everyone and sorry for not updating for a while but been very busy with hubbie doing his car boots and since setting up my own diary

Anyway [STRIKE]my total is now £210.90[/STRIKE] * see Edit: after adding car boot money, coupons/vouchers, coins found in street, discounts, friend giving me dog food her dog won't eat and not taking any money for it, free week at slimming club after pre-paying 5 weeks, gift token at A*da for wrong itm on receipt plus refund, etc. But you will notice that, even though it has done me well in previous months, I have done no eBaying this month :eek: which is pure laziness really :mad:

* Edit: Whoops forgot to include a car boot from 3rd Sept which made us £60 so new total is actually £270.90

not sure if you are aware of MSE Quidclan

and

http://www.quidco.com/the-high-street-web/?ac

once a day

http://www.quidco.com/kelkoo/

and try these, you can only do them once, but might help. Can't find the 3rd daily, might have been removed.

I think the natwest online banking is the same system as RBS has at the moment, which if I'm honest is one of the attractions but given how hard it is to make/keep money these days I want to see if I can find a basic account which actually still pays interest on credit balances (I know A&L/Santander do but RBS recently stopped and I think Natwest have too).

I think the only 2 on there at the moment are Kelkoo, which you can do once a day, for the grand total of a penny! And The High Street Web, which you can do twice for 2x4p!
