  • Thank you for running this again.

    I am determined to become debt free this year and start saving for my future. However January is going to be a busy month so I'm going for a low £5 a day to get the new year started.

    Good luck everyone

    Ok I'm really sorry if I'm being thick here but I'm a little confused. Do I actually have to make £10 EVERY single day in January or is it ok if I sell something on Ebay for say £40, does that count for 4 days or only one? I don't know how on earth I would be able to make £10 extra every day (OMG, if I could then my life would be bearable) If you could give me some tips that'd be great. I do mystery shopping but there's very little in my area, for example I've two booked in in Jan but they are only paying £4 each (on top of reimbursement) so even if I did them both on the same day that wouldn't be the £10 plus htere are no more available here in Jan. What else could I do? I teach so unfortunately overtime is not an option. I really want to join this but can you give me some guidance and a bit more clarification re the rules? Thank you. :)

    I am loving all the challenges on here, thanks everyone for doing it and (hopefully) keeping me on the straight and narrow!

    I actually did £380 on ebay in December so followed this without realising so put me down for £10 per day please :-)
