    Evening all.
    Great to see everyone doing so well and lots of people still joining. I have been really busy the last few days ebaying ect. Have had no luck with competions so far but will keep trying. babymoo's sucess inspired me to give it a go. Am doing ok with surveys but it takes forever and quite a few have screened me out after about 15 minutes which is very naughty so I have dropped them from my list.

    Hi everyone,

    I've updated my total with some money I was owed off my cousin & auntie which has gone straight into the savings account :)
    I've withdrawn £100 from city bingo - after deducting my initial deposit I will be £90 up when it hits my account :j (will update my total when that happens!)
    I will end up with about £90 pending cashback from tcb so will be able to add that as and when it's payable!

    Hope everyone's ok

    Wow everyone seems to be making progress. I keep telling myself that anything I have made has been money I otherwise would not have. I pulled out all the mse type steps to clear my debt when I first joined the site and after that although I have not run up any more debt I have not been particularly frugal with my every day expenses. DH have been spending £50-£65 in Sainsburys most weeks and tbh I am sick of it. We have a large mortgage and all my savings are going to that.

    In January this challenge motivated me to raise £200 which has been knocked off the mortgade and so far this month I managed to hit the golden £40 on Onepoll, I am nearly at £8 on mysurvey and am chasing the last 605 piggy points to get a £10 voucher. Of anyone wants a referal then please pm me. I also saved £6 on my shop today with coupons.

    DH listed 10 cds on Ebay as the 30p on music magpie just didn't seem worth it although you do get an extra 10% if you go through Quidco

    Fingers crossed that some other money making ideas spring to mind!

    Keep plodding on everyone as Tesco says every little helps!

    Hey all! I'm gonna take on this challenge! I'm counting my savings so far towards it though, which at the moment is £3128.62 ... My mini target is £6500, but I'm gonna try and get the full 11k! I read the thread last year and I've decided to take part this year! :)

    Got really excited tonight when I saw the £25 Hobbs gift card with £4 magazine offer. Was ready to buy gf and mum gifts galore and make £100'a on eBay. I have had similar success with this in the past.

    ...They aren't even selling for the magazine price on eBay right now :(.
    Forget it.

    Just a quick question... With the sites like quidco, ciao, etc... I'm a little worried about using them because I used to use ciao (I think I did surveys on there but it was such a long time ago) and I got almost a tenner and then all of a sudden it went back to £0.00.... Do the sites you use do this? Is there some kind of time limit on the money you've earned?
