  • Hi,

    I'm very new to this but would like to participate on a very ambitious £10 a day. Luckily I've had a bit of a headstart with good ol' eBay and I'm about half way there already.

    The bf has decided we need to save £30k by the end of the year for a house deposit which is massively more than we can achieve but nothing wrong with goals right??! I'm figuring this is a good a way as any to help towards that! I've signed up to a whole bunch of survey sites but all I seem to be getting so far is spam! Anyone got any tips on good ones? Also - what exactly counts towards the £10?

    I've also decided to take up another challenge of no spending on non-essentials for a month - all excitement for me this year! How do you all keep positive?!
    I like that everyone encourages each other! Much more likely to succeed!

    Thanks and good luck to everyone involved :)

    Hi all

    sorry no sb codes are allowed to be posted, you can tell people where to find the code, ie FB, twitter, gadget, etc but no actual code.

    :D Oh good, I may be alone in this but I actually prefer to be told where but not what. Half the fun is looking for it ;).
  • Focus groups are a must! You can get anything from £25 to £150 per 2 hour session. Saros research and a few more type into google see whats in your area. The only survey sites I use are My survey, Valued opinions and Iposos these pay quite well and it doesnt take long at all to convert your points. I always get Amazon vouchers.Ebay is great sign up to them and wait until they offer free listings for pure profits. I just got a quote for my old mobile so thats another £50 coming my way next week. Good luck!
    Also Gumtree is great I always find free hair cuts and focus sessions on there

    Feb: Surveys: £8.00

    Oops :o, lol. That's strange, I would have thought that they would be ok as they aren't promoting or selling anything, just helping people out.
