    • Do food on the go (again get points though cant remember how much)
    • join some cashback websites.
    • do 10 ebay listings (some of these will be relists as i have things finishing today and tomorrow)
    • Do at least 30 competitions.
    • Want to try and see how many £2 coins and coins in sealed pot i have to so i can add the totals to this thread.
    • have a NSD.
    • If i have the time i will do the GAP mcdonalds test that you have to do.
    If i post them on here it makes me more accountable to do them. Thanks for all your support so far.

    Hi clippy_girl, yes shop and scan is good but i think you have to be invited to it. i have been doing it since march i think and have had £50 in vouchers and have another £20 in my account. i also got invited to food on the go which gives me extra points. I used to be with another shop and scan panel i think it was TNS but my scanner would never work - i had nothing but problems with them so gave up with them but this one is much better and happy to do it. It does not matter how much you spend, you still get the same amount of points.

    • Do at least 50 competitions
    • Package up all ebay sales that have been paid for.
    • Have a NSD
    • Do the GAP assessment that i didnt achieve yesterday.
    • sort out all the recycling and rubbish
    • put codes onto cokezone
    • read up on daily clicks
    • Do daily clicks that i have joined up to so far
    • Join up to some more daily click sites.
    • Start adding some dvd's and cd's to music magpie to sell to them that will not sell or are too damaged to sell on ebay.
    I would also like to look into matched betting at some point but will get my head round daily clicks first.
    Also have a think of if there is any other money making ideas.

    on my recent activity on fatcheese it only shows kelkoo pending at 1p for the couple of days that i have started doing it again, the others dont seem to be pending - am i doing something wrong or does it take longer for these to show up?
