    Welcome ScaryBiscuits - the way I look at it is if I didn't have this challenge I'm 99% certain I wouldn't make £1007 in the next 6 months, however with the motivation to tell people what I've been doing on here, updating my sig and finding out what others have been doing I'm much more confident I will - I think it's all about motivation and this thread has certainly motivated me :j :j

    Hi everyone hope your all ok :hello:
    After listing half my life on ebay and amazon, i have a total of £82.78 transferred from paypal to my bank account plus £20.98 from amazon.
    I've also been Quidco-ing it and got a new bank account which i really needed with £50 cashback and house insurance renewal saving money (£48 a year-but not adding this to my total-just cashback) and getting £75 cashback. Also been doing as many mystery shopping assignments as I can and have so far got £36. Also started the matched betting through quidco so have some ££ waiting for payment.
    Just listed some more stuff on ebay so hoping for a bit more by the end of the week and another mystery shop on sat.
    Will update in a week or so when money goes in my bank for stuff.

    Listed 26 things on eBay! All prints I had in an old, falling apart, book I was given. Hopefully some will sell - only need two to go before I am in profit. Anyone like dogs...? (oops sorry - meant to be saving money aren't we?:cool:)

    There are currently 121 items with the code in the listing! Good luck everyone.

  • *cough* rpoints *cough* ;)

    i'm sure most of you know i'm moderator there

    i don't get the quidco obsession here! from everything i've heard, it doesn't seem better than Rpoints because they keep the first £5 you make every year, if things don't track I've been told that manual claims aren't usually successful...and anything they offer is matched by the Rpoints HCP anyway! serious question -am i missing something??
