Right I need some help as I want to add to my income as much as I can via Internet. I am already expecting to make a chunk of this through Ebay but would like some easy to follow advice from people who have done it with links please to relevant sites for;
Clicks
Surveys (they all confuse me)
Bingo(? It was big when I last was a regular on here)
Anything else that I may have missed which people think I would find easy and useful! Don't mind anything being time consuming as long as it isn't something I need to concentrate too hard on!
Look forward to your replies!

I'd be surprised if you found any site or combination of sites that will make you £1500 in 1 summer. You could make maybe £150 if you tried very hard!
Can you not take on second job at weekends/evenings?
Matched betting could make you your £1500 but requires the concentration you say you don't want.
There's no such thing as easy money these days otherwise everyone would be doing it!0 -
Sorry....I meant in total including savings from work!
I just want to have the little boosters where I can!£1500 Saving Challenge!

Surveys aren't a quick process by any means and there's only a few that pay out in cash, you tend to have to get your points paid as rewards or by high street type vouchers. If you're still interested, there's a thread on here somewhere rating the various ones. Pinecone pay £3 a survey if you can manage to register with them, but of late I've only been getting one survey a month or so.
I use mysurvey (vouchers or paypal), opinium (takes forever as they only pay out when you get to £25), globaltestmarket (getting screened out of lots of these though they do pay cash) and valued opinions (vouchers). Those are the main ones - there's also yougov, but I think they pay out at £40 and I've not got that far yet.
What about the cashback sites? - topcashback and quidco come to mind - handy if you shop or do insurance on-line.
Edit - if you really do have lots of time there also the competitions bit of this site - very hit and miss and can waste hours of your life, but you can enter and sell things on if you do win. You have to enter hundreds though, to get anywhere, do it very regularly and expect it to be a few months before the first small prize turns up. My biggest win was a sony vaio laptop when I was doing it regularly, but most months it was the odd book or cd, nothing more.
I didn't do it for the money so much, I just like getting surprises in the post!All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.
Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.0 -

is there a dummy's guide to this?
Guide to Matched Betting is HERE.
If you prefer an easier-to-follow guide I'd have a look at Freebets4all
HOWEVER!
Matched Betting is not for "dummies" for want of a better word. One little mistake could cost you hundreds of pounds and I'd recommend A LOT of research before considering this.0 -
You said you're selling on ebay.. How about reselling? Buy things in bulk and sell individually?0

Survey sites are very simple. Have a look here as i created a guide on the subject:

They won't make millions. I've cashed out £198 so far this year (not including the money i have earned that i haven't cashed) and must admit i don't work very hard. I do them when board at work and ignore almost half. The important thing to remember is do the best paying ones first!
And remember. If they pay in vouchers it isn't difficult to put them on ebay if you prefer cash
If anybody would like any help just send me a message.I get what i want. That isn't because i'm a brat or spoilt. It's because i'm determined, i work hard for it and i achieve my goals!0 -
You could try mystery shopping? There is loads of great info on the Mystery Shopping Thread, if you're already working, at least it has flexi hours, such as evenings and weekends, and you can earn up to about £20 an hour with some sites!
It completly varies the amount you will be asked to participate so join as many sites as you can, for the moment I'm with Mystery Shopper UK .. http://www.mystery-shopper-uk.co.uk/ and I think its a great way to make some extra cash...
Good Luck!
:eek: 2014: £20 voucher from SurveyFriends, £10 cash payout from Panel Opinion too and working towards more from Valued Opinions currently.
2013: £35 and £50 vouchers from SurveyFriends! More than £15 made from other paid surveys sites (Yougov, Panel Opinion, Valued Opinions, Pinecone, etc.) Happy so far!0 -
Ebay is good think... you can sell a lot of products at once and get a lot of money in this way... sell stuff that people want to buy and sell it cheap.0
