  • Count me in too! I was just thinking about doing a challenge of my own - really clear off a chunk of my debts this year but it'd be nicer doing it with other people!

    Could I have the spreadsheet do you think? Or at least could you give me an idea of how you've done yours so I can recreate?

  • I'll give this a go again this year. There's absolutely no chance I'll make £12k but there's no harm in trying.

    As with last year I'll be counting debt paid instead of money made/saved as it's just easier for me. If I did manage to make £12k then it would clear my debt :j

    Put my name down. I may not be able to update very often but i'll do it through overtime, fivesquids, text broker and selling items.

    I'm trying to do this on the side without telling the wife so i can take us to Vegas in 2013 :D

  • Bufger - can I just ask - do you get much through Textbroker or Fivesquid? I have lots of writing experience but as I work full time I'm a bit worried about finding the time to do submissions?

  • So far, I've got £19.07 available to transfer from Quidco on their next payment run, with another £123.70 waiting to confirm in the next couple of weeks/months, £5.75 waiting to confirm on TopCashBack, and £19.62 sat in my PayPal account waiting to be transferred across in January.

    Which should mean that when everything is confirmed and I move everything across, i'll have made £168.14/£2012... Which is 8.36% of the way there already! Woohoo :)

    Please count me in !!

    We moved into this house four years ago and the only room we haven't done is the kitchen. I'm going to give this challenge a go and hopefully in 2013 we will have a place to be proud of :D

    Hi Rosie, I only created the accounts last week but i havent had a single hit from either of them yet! ive advertised in my specialities on fivesquid but the site seems quiet to me. On textbroker im classed as a 3 star writer (out of 5) and there isnt many jobs up there for 3 and under. I also work full time so i just check both sites once a day. Luckily i can type around 60 words per minute so it wont take up too much of my time if i do get some jobs through.
