    I just recieved an email from amazon to say my money was on its way, didnt realise I have to wait for another 2 weeks to recieve it!
    Knew that the money got sent out fortnightly but thought thats when I would actually get the money (Sold something almost 2 weeks ago now so have already waited this long, by the time I actually get it it could be almost a month later!)

    It doesn't take two weeks but does take a while. I got frustrated waiting for my first payment too but now it's settled and the money is coming in every two weeks so it's fine.

    I've had a rubbish week money making wise, just 1 ebay sale (only thing I put on admittingly) and no amazon sales or sales through work. Waiting for mystery shopping and some survey payouts too but no money yet.

    Trying to stay positive and keep on target though so here's my plan (if I post it here I'll be more likely to do it as I've told other people about it):
    a) try really hard with surveys, clickthroughs etc (check emails all the time so I don't miss things)
    b) look for r+rs in tescos tonight and any coupons etc lying around ;)
    c) get on and do some ebay stuff, I really wish you could set the end time on your auction yourself as I'm out on Thursday and Sunday evenings and would love to be able to list tonight say on a 9 day listing but I'll just have to do my best.
    d) investigate green metropolis - haven't sold there yet and think it's the next step for me.
    e) keep looking for coins on the pavements - since starting this challenge I've not found any whereas before I used to find quite few :rolleyes:

    Supposed to be hitting the £100 mark this week, that's not going to happen but I'm determined to catch up. :j
