skint-student-nurse

hello!

ive had a bit of a poop start to the day - i got my daily bus ticket for £6 and ended up loosing it so had to pay another £3.50 to get back home,doh! I bought some bits to put on ebay but my OH pointed out that its stuff my DD would like so that was a fruitless task!

On the plus side, i did win 100pts in boots i put some more change in the tin,we've decided to crack the tin open on the last day of the month and then pay it in the bank every month. Had £213 in new sales overnight on ebay and amazon too I am trying to update my sig but it wont let me,lol!

Im going to start collecting the tokens for the £9.50 holidays tommorrow,we normally go to butlins but we just cant afford it atm.

keep going everyone!

Just had a huge £660 council tax bill to be paid by March through today for our annexx (told we probably wouldnt have to pay it as its empty!!) Does anyone have any idea of how to make that money in 3 months?!?!?

Any advice would be greatfully received, thank you x

Erm selling on ebay and amazon. Or cat boot sales?

Matched betting could get you that amount aswell.

If it comes to it are you in a position to get a 0% credit card? That way you would have slightly longer to raise the balance.

This thread is a good motivator, thanks to all contributing :beer:

Done quite well so far this month, although I have carried some over from December admittedly. Hoping to do quite well this month to give me a boost. just loaded some old tosh on eBay so hopefully some of that will sell.


My main aim is to get some of my 25k+ debt paid off, the interest alone is killing me. My next step will be looking at shifting some of that debt, however I won't be including savings in my total.

Stopped my 2nd contract phone and mobile internet so that won't be coming out next month. Bonus :rotfl:

Morning and happy Friday all,
I did a Hales and went on a thank you mission this morning as if I did one of my usual responses to everyone it would have been the size of a novel.

Massive congratulations to everyone who has made money this week – well done all of us first weeks of the year and we are all off to a flying start. Also, to those who haven’t made that much don’t beat yourself up as every penny counts

As for me I was at the hospital yesterday so I didn’t get much done, other than updating the blog. Been quite organised though, I have got a few bits and pieces sorted out and I am raring to go with marketing for my business.

I have designed some really great marketing boxes which I will be sending out over the next few weeks.

• My to-do list over the weekend is
• Working on some more changes for my blog. Reviewing articles and
• current content and I have some changes to make to the look and layout.
• Organising product photography for photo shoot. (w/e 15th)
• Finishing up my remaining projects for all portfolio websites
• Product descriptions to write for websites.

so this weekend will be quite full on, but I know as long as I am focused it will be okay. I am just really looking forward to getting this all kicked off this year. I feel in my bones this 2011 is going to be good!

Pink Mummy - I was going to say the same as Nikki, just flog anything that you don't need. There are so many things that I had around the house collecting dust that I was suprised that people would pay money for - but they did. The only other thing I can think of is looking at your existing budget and see where you can make savings e.g meal plans (me and OH are doing this), shopping deals bogof and discounts, and using quidco.

There are also daily clicks et al.

If you break it down you need to find a way of saving or earning £7 per day in order to do this. Break it down it to little pieces and hopefully that will be an achievable target.

Pink mummy if you look at the first page there is a post with links in. there is a link to betmunch's matched betting website.
I'm not sure about the bingo as haven't got into that this year.

I found with ebay that I talked about it, I thought about it but I didn't just get my finger out and start doing it. That is until recently, when due to the economic climate and the bad weather, both my OH and DS were not working, so I had to find a way to bring in some extra cash. The first step is the one you need to make, so look around you and find 6 items you no longer want or need. Are they worth money? Well, if you can find items you think are NOT worth money you cannot lose! Take 6 pictures, list at .99p, be reasonable with the postage, and get them listed. There, that's it, you did it, your ebaying sideline is off the ground. If an item sells at .99p, you are not really making more than a few pennies on it, by the time you pay ebay/paypal, but what I found is that it taught me how to go about the whole business, and gradually you learn a bit more, and realise that you really can sell ANYTHING on ebay.

I am playing free bingo at the moment with city & costa bingo (pm your email address if you want me to refer you) the only thing is that you cant withdraw your winnings (if you get any!) unless you make a desposit, but you do get bonuses for depositing as well, the above 2 are offering 200% so if you deposit £10 you get £30 to play with.

I have won about £2.50 on the free bingo and will probably use that up on the paid bingo and if I get to £30 then deposit £10 and withdraw my winnings

I hope that made sense!

By the way, I just thought I would mention my main source of added income, Academic Knowledge. If you have a degree (2:2 or above) it is a great way of earning extra cash (I think anyway).

Basically you do essays. They are 'model essays'. I do sometimes doubt this, but then other times there are repeats of the same question x amount of times for a full spectrum of grade levels so it seems more plausible in that instance.

I have genuinely earned £348 (£70 in progress - when I get off this site and finish it!) so if anyone would like any more information PM me.

PM me if you want to join, as I can give you a referral link which speeds through the process (it can be lengthy with needing to send off photocopies or scans of qualifications and ID) and gets me a small referral bonus if you decide to complete an assignment.
