Thanks for starting this Annie. I'll be going for bronze - although I thought the bronze challenge was to raise £1024 in 11 weeks? Am a bit confused?

My tip would be to join Pigsback (www.pigsback.co.uk) and try and get as many free vouchers as possible and then sell them on. The first two posts on this thread are a fantastic help:

Although not hugely lucrative I am well on my way to earning £30 of John Lewis vouchers.

£1024 in 11 weeks was the last challenge this is a new one now
Good luck

Would it be possible for you to put a list of 'rules' for the challenge? I am a bit confused as to what I can and cannot count towards my total. For example, I know that I am going to get some extra money this month from work. It is not part of my usual money coming in, but isn't from a job started specially for this challenge, so does in count?

many thanks,

Will add 'rules' to first post
HTH
If anyone else can think of other 'rules' please post them as my memory is poor. It will help total newbies if we have a comprehensive list of do's and don'ts
Thanks

Well looks like I will be the only silver

I am so pleased to see this up and running. Saddo that I am, I have been waiting for this. We are going for bronze and OH is going to be involved too. He has designed a spreadsheet so I can work out exactly what is coming through as most of mine will be selling stuff on ebay as we have a house crammed to the gills with stuff! We are also desperate to move this year due to 'difficulties' with our landlady, so it will be less to pack when we find somewhere else to go.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOh count me in as the second silver!!!!

Must re-read rules of MFN to reacquaint myself with the rules/ideas.....

Looking forward to the extra dosh though!!!

finallydebtfree!!

I going to see what I can fit in and aim for bronze. Joined pigsback and quidco so hopefully this can all count towards the total, does it matter that the points were earned before the challenge? they wont pay out until afte the challenge has started.

Good luck to all!

Annie - I thought we were going to count money from anything extra to our normal income not money from nothing? I think this would make sense because then we can just clear as much as poss from profit from this challenge. What do other people think?
