hi all, I hope everyone had a good christmas and is raring to go!! i can't wait for the mini challenges, they really helped me last year.

I am still going to add my Avon to my totals even though I started it as part of the last challenge (just!), I am sure this will help me stay motivated, I also have quite a few bits to sort out and get on eBay, and I also want to be much stricter with my food budget and meal planning and get my blog back on track..... this year I want to do more doing and less talking about doing!!!!!!

evening all!

It is so lovely reading all the posts for this challenge and is keeping me excited about starting it on the 1st! I have already listed 4 items on ebay. Fingers crossed they sell. I have created a spreadsheet to keep count of all the money I make. Have also managed to convience OH to have a chat about money and set some sort of budget for next year!

Anyway just wanted to say how excited I am to start making money and friends on here!

Hi tra, From memory, I think the highest amount somebody made was in the region of £8k (and the goal was £10k) - i may be wrong as we haven't really chatted too much about totals. I don't think (m)any people regret taking part. Everyone generally says that they made a lot more than had they not bothered to take part. It's been great fun too

Can I join in too? Have seen how well some have done - especially skintbint - and seen how hard she worked to get to her total. I know it wont be an easy achievement but even getting a small amount will be something. I will count all I can save from changing tariffs etc,selling on ebay making money from various things eg craft fairs if I can scrounge help from Skintbint as to when they are happening! Have got a new diary so that will be used for keeping track. I did start this last year but the thread split and I didnt keep it up - I think at that point in the first wee while I had about £900. I did dabble a bit over the year and probably just through selling on ebay, selling knitting, quidco, tesco vouchers and various other things without much thought made about 2 grand. Will decide what I am going to count in this challenge and start on 1st January.
