Today I did some surveys for £2.20 and did an hour's OT at time and a half. Not much but it all helps!
Our greatest weakness lies in giving up; always try just one more time0 -
June Totals for our extra incomes
£72.80 from my youtube channel Adsense
£23.15 from youtube amazon affiliate sales.
£88.09 from Solar panel generation payments
£371 from renting out our spare room for 11 nights on Airbnb.
Thats a total of £555.04!
Big drop in bookings for June on airbnb, although its picked up again and we already have 16 nights in July booked in!Mortgage Free 22/03/17

Things I've done to be MF lately
1. Resurrected this thread with this post as I get good ideas here!
2. Made and sold some preserves from fruit/veg from the garden
3. Been camping, so that's saving not making money.
4. Started my S&S ISA and invested first £50
5. Got £50 for a funding circle referral which I reinvested.
6. Put every purchase I need to make through TCB and £co although definitely doing well on the not spending front.
7. Joined Amazon associates on my blog but need to work out the best way to do it without having loads of adverts (like there is now)
8. Turned off my water heating to heat with solar only. It's done most days and have had to top up 2-3 times.
That's about it!0 -
lots of freezer/cupboard meals this month for me.0

Bumping this thread
My MF contribution for today is that I left my handbag at home and therefore will have a NSD (mostly due to not being able to access my money :rotfl: ).0 -
Homemade lunch brought in to work today. Better for the waistline and the pocket
Sold DS' old bed on fb for £15.0 -
Off poorly so temptation to spend is there, yesterday was an NSD not sure whether today will be or not but I will carefully think out any spends! Will need to pay for gas bottles today but all budgeted for! Am up to 38.70 on onepoll so will be carrying on checking this today!

Posting to keep me motivated
Picked up couple of hours overtime tonight. Looking forward to some time off soon, need chance to start listing on ebay and have a good clear out!
Looking to cut down weekly food spends, spending far too much for the 3 of us. Currently using up stores so some interesting combos
Hope everyone is having a good weekend0
