:hello: Hello to all newbies and regulars and welcome to another £10 a day challenge. :dance:
This challenge first started in September 2007, so this will be the 42nd Month this challenge has been going _party_. So thanks Batgirl for starting it and Purpleroses, JesaRose, Sweetpeas and MizMir,who also keep the thread going. _party_
I know this first post is long, but please read it as it gives tips and info on how this challenge works!
If you're new to the challenge don't be scared - here's how it works:
The aim of this challenge is to make £10 extra a day everyday for the month. A lot of people think this is impossible but it can and has been done (and in some cases some show offs have even doubled or tripled the monthly challenge).
If you feel £10 is too much why not start at £5 or if you're brave join those who aim for £20 a day! Anything extra you make is great so set whatever target you think you can manage.
The idea is that everyone posts how they are making extra money or saving money and these shared ideas help all of us to learn new ways to help cut debt or earn/save money.:D
What cannot be added: wages from your main job
What can be added: overtime at work, income from a 2nd job, savings in shopping, daily clicks, sales, interest, vouchers, mystery shopping...the list is endless.
Feel free to add any extra money earned (above normal wages) or any money you saved when out shopping. For daily clicks and sites like quidco it's upto you when you add the money earnt there. Some add it when an amount tracks others when it's paid out - it's your challenge so it is upto you what you want to count and when you want to count it.
This board moves so fast so here's some ideas for people to make money. (Click the blue words (links) for some shortcuts to threads on each subject):
Sell your old books/DVDs/CDs/games here:
Amazon.co.uk, play.com, Green Metropolis is for books only.
Ebay - a place to sell anything and everything.
Gumtree, Preloved, cquot, ebid, craigslist, vivastreet, netmums.com, trade-it , Friday ad, priceminster - these are all places you can sell items too.
Survey sites - my survey and p!nec0ne tend to be the best (p!nec0ne is hard to find but well worth trying to find it!) but there are many more it really depends on you finding the ones that work best for you - toluna, harris poll, valued opinions etc
Valued Opinions
toluna
onepoll
also join topcashback and Quidco - type in surveys in the search engine and some will pay you to join up with them.

Sealed Pot Challenge 2011 - basically you put your change into a jar over the year so in December you should have a nice pot of money to help

etsy and folksy - If you enjoy making crafts why not have a go at selling them on etsy or folksy. They've been getting increasingly busier each year.

Hi just a quick question do you have to aim for £10 a day or does it count if you make £30 one day then nothing for the next three days i.e averaging £300 for the month

Hi, the challenge is to try and make your £300 a month, if you don't make it, you don't fail, we don't tap your hand or anything! LOL.
If you make £30 on day, you can count that as 3 days money. Most of us just try to make extra money and post when we do, and we just have it as a running total, rather than I made £10 today, £5 tomorrow, etc.0 -

Hi Everyone! :wave:
I would love to join you all! I've been making money online for a couple of years now but have lost my motivation lately so this thread sounds like a great way to get back into it... I do love a challenge! (as you can probably tell from my siggy, lol!).

Good luck everyone!!!0 -
