    Challenge 7 – July 2011 (that is so scary)

    1. EBay challenge – I know most of us have been making the most of the free listing days recently, but this hasn't been a challenge for six months, and this is just another push to clear out those cupboards, before the kids break up for the summer, and you’ll have your hands full. ;)


    2. Swagbucks – join it if you’re not on it and use it every day. You should be easily be able to redeem every month (paypal or amazon voucher) and over the year, it’ll make quite a nice sum. Michelle has written a lovely guide to using it here. Thanks Michelle. If we all post the codes we get, it will bump us up further.

    3. Referals - Refer as many people as you can to join via your links. Funky Pigeon is £3 per referral, Living Social is if three people sign up via your link – you get your deal free. Toluna is points, some survey sites, even offer a percentage of the other persons earnings. Get your referral links posted, and earn some money the easy way :D

    4. Member challenge - From next month we are going to have one challenge from a member of this thread. That way we all can get more input and involvement in the challenges. I’ll pick the first person today, and then next month they can choose someone else.

    Michelle – Could you please be the first one to come up with a challenge for all of us? Don’t worry, you have a whole month to think of one.. It won't need to be posted until next month challenge.;) It could be something that you’re struggling with, or the group as a whole. :)

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~

    The £2.50 a day thing was a great success, and if any of you wish to carry it on, please do. :D

    I would like to say how proud I am of each and every one of you. June's totals are absolutely fabulous, and it shows just what we all can acheive if we set our minds to it (another shop.com promotion would be most helpful too. :rotfl:).
    This is this months challenge xx

    Morning all

    Think I have done everything on SB today, might have a go at some of the games later on if I get a chance.

    Did another review on DY today, am up over the £15 mark on there, undecided whether to get a voucher or a cheque. I tend to dip into the money more than the vouchers really so might just get a voucher and done with it. My Dad asked me to order him another dvd on Monday but this time I found out how to pay for it on my card (he will give me the money on Friday) instead of dipping into my vouchers. Think I have about £55 left on there at the moment towards Christmas.

    Morning all.

    We've had amazing weather for days but it's now chucking it down!

    Bunbun well done on your crown!

    Welcome Miss Giggles :)

    Thanks for the SB info Elysia, but the video playing element doesn't seem to be working for me. I watched the videos but the green line isn't filling!

    Have a good day everyone. I've just been screened out on VO and NV grrrr :(

    Morning everyone.

    Welcome miss giggles hope you are as successful as everyone else on here.

    Well done bunbun.

    Rained here early but stopped for the school run. My eldest is on his first school trip (well nursery trip) he is going to the beach today. So it will be his first full day he was so excited this morning. Didn't tell him mummy wasn't looking forward to losing her baby for a full day!

    New Reviews done this morning and a survey on iPsOs worth 250 points. A couple on OP trying to get done but so slow on there.

    SB is code for Swagbucks. Welcome Miss Giggles. 30p is 30p more than you had this morning, so very well done. :D Did you read through the first posts?

    If you subscribe to the thread - Click on thread tools on the green banner, and subscribe - it makes it a whole lot easier, as you get an email when someone has posted. OR you just click end, to find the last post. I always press the thanks button for every post I've read - that way it's easy to see what I've read and what I haven't too. ;)

    Pink - If you find the green bar isn't moving, just click on one of the adverts to the side (there are two rows of four) it will move then. :)

    Spent more money - I hate it when OH is off. We have meals out everyday - not good on the waistline or the purse. He pays for the meals, but then expects me to buy whatever it is we went to the shops for. :mad:
