    When I was doing a similar sort of thing for holiday spending money last year I took baskets of ironing from my Mum and she paid me £10 a time. I also did a load of gardening for her and Dad because Dad had just had a knee replacement and couldn't manage - another £10.

    It didn't feel like I was scrounging because I was earning it even though I know they probably would have given it to me it I had asked.

    How about making some cakes and selling them at work.... that one works a treat - just remember if you have a canteen at work to try and charge a bit less.

    If I think of any more I will let you know.

    Could you tell me which 6 sites you use to make £2.00 a day - I have registered with pigsback but that is the only one that I know of for click throughs.

    Also, why Sundays on e-bay? Is that the best day for listings to end?

    Thanks.


    Hi SkySky69 - pop me a PM as a reminder and I will send you the links - it's great once you get going and 15 mins a day is nothing really - it takes sticking to it though to see results in the long term ;)

    If you sign up to Jackpot Joy via GP you get £1. If you become a depositing member you get £20 BUT if you go in to the chat room they'll give you £2 for just registering a card. GP tracks this at £20 :)

    I'm going through the Bingo sites at Quidco at the moment (more money that GP!) and Bingo Liner has been successful for me. I've played and won and played and won all just by having a tenner in there. Not managed to reach the £40 so I can withdraw but I'm having fun!

    Which Bingo site? Before now I have won £10 but been unable to withdraw it as minimum withdraw is £30. I just put £20 extra in and then took the £30 out!

    Hi Kirstielou
    Thanks for posting this - I'm signed up to the Bronze 2007 Challenge, and I'm going to update that with money I'd saved on my annual insurance cover, but I don't want to do ebay at the moment until *everything* is finished on my accounts, I just can't have two projects like that running at the same time, can't get my head around it.


    So... clickthrus, I can do. I'm not good on finding them for myself, so I really appreciate your first post.

    A question, tho - say you do a search on HighStreetweb through greasy palm and then as well through linemypocket - don't they find out and deduct the points or something, doesn't it count as fraudulent or something awful? Hoping someone can reassure me about this...........[click.... click.... click....]

  • I tend to use one site e.g Greasypalm and then visit another site e.g linemypocket after about 30 mins. They dont link them then. I've never had a problem

    It's Bingo Liner. I was thinking of putting in the money but it was going to take days to get it back out. I think I'll wait until payday and do just that though. I've still got £5 Bingo Bonus money that I'm now eligible to keep so might still win more.
