    £5 from MySurvey to add today :) Also discovered that I've been ripped off by my usual post office. I use post office in the town centre where I work and they charge me around £3 to send a small paperback book by 2nd class, I decided to venture down to my local village postoffice as it's my day off and they only charged me 92p! Think I'll have to save all my posting for my days off.
    Paying off the overdraft:
    End of April= -£500
    Today= -£455

    Debt-free and Proud!
    I have been working on ways to earn some extra money both yesterday and today: i have been completing some surveys online and click click clicking on several PTC sites. My hand is sore now LOL

    I have decided to not count any earnings until the money has actually been paid to me - its important to me that i actually have the cash in my hand or account so i can pay something off my rates bill at the end of the month. So although i have 'earned' some money online i haven't been paid for any of this yet.

    I have found myself focusing more on how i can get some extra money in the past few days because of the challenge and i think thats a good thing :) I don't like not having anything to put in the pot though so i thought i would have a look around the house and the car for bits of loose change - I found a grand total of £1.01 hahahaha.

    I know its not technically earnings, but it is money that i didn't really know i had and i am adding it to the rates payment fund so i am counting it in the challenge anyway hehehe!


    In addition to my online activities i have arranged to do a car boot sale tomorrow so hopefully that will add to the fund - i will have to be strict with myself not to spend my earnings on the other stalls though :)


    Right so progress so far: £1.01/£310 -its a start anyway! Hopefully will increase my daily average tomorrow!
    Debt at Aug 2010 (LBM) £21,908.86, Debt Freeeeee Date 4th Nov 2013 :j:j:j Massive Thanks to the £10 per day thread :A Next goals:
    Savings £1203.16/£10,000******Mortgage to Zero: £52,579.46 to go
    Feb Earnings: £711.20/£500 March: £434.41/£500
    Currently compiling an A-Z of earning sites and happy to share it ;)

    i've made a small start £5 reward and £20 vouchers, ebay's looking good, why is it with ebay you list something you think will be a winner and it flops, something random you think is junk and it gets a bid in 2 days, anyway by the weekend hope to have a bit more, and I might have sold an old dvdplayer at work, won't get much but you know it's out of the house, so can't complain,

    Good luck everyone, and hopefully a very profitable month.

    Hi,

    Sorry, I've been off the ball for a while but I'm still in for £10 a day.

    Missed my target again last month so must try harder!

    Planning to do my first ever car boot this month to see how I get on as I've been having a few problems with ebay.

    Managed a respectable £11 in coupon savings today including a £5 off £25 spend in Sainsburys with my local paper. Have just seen some deposits into my account from Paypal for the Harry Potter DVD's but will add it Weds evening :D

    Forgot to ask; do books shift easily on Amazon?! I've got a few dull Law books on and a massively heavy (and expensive!) encyclopedia. I've never sold anything on A before so hoping it sells fast.
    £20k in 2023 = £2718 £2023 in 2023 = £196.41 Grocery challenge £250= £195.80 **MONEY MAKES ME HAPPY**
