    with consumer pulse there is a maximum amount of purchases per week that you get points for - can't remember the amount but check your e-mails/T&Cs, no point doing work that won't credit!

    ETA: I think its 20

    Waiting for my eBay items to end this evening. Hopefully then I'll have more than 35p for my January challenge. Fingers crossed!
    If you don't like where you are - move. You are not a tree.

    Okay I'm back after being naughty and running away for putting too much pressure on myself :o Am going to aim for £10 a day but aren't going to beat myself up if I don't manage this as I'm back in full time work. I've applied to join the bank at work so will hopefully get some extra hours, which should help. If we want to get on top of this deposit saving then it's time to take some control of the situation :)

    So far I've managed £33 today from TB and £100 from Quidco so am going to add this to my month's total making it £133 / £310

    I'm hoping that being back will inspire me to do more, you guys are amaaaaaazing :j:beer::j:beer:
  • Fairy - Fab stuff! Really pleased for you hon x

    Finally been paid for all my second hand ebay stuff - a pathetic £24.56! Will add my business sales when I work out all the figures, but they are pretty pathetic too!

    Consumer Pulse is Maximum 20 entries per month that credit.
    But spread it over the weeks so you get your extra 50p worth for doing something that week (although you can just tick all the 'Nothin bought' boxes and still get your 50p.
    I usually do a few extra so it doesn't look like I'm just stopping at 20 each month.
    Although I keep forgetting about it anyway and just doing the Nothing Bought on a Sunday evening, meaning to do my 20 before the end of the month, and suddenly another 5 months have disappeared :D So at least because there's months nowadays when I don't even do the 20, mine won't look suspicious anymore!

    I got invited to a facebook carboot style page today.

    They are calling it Faceboot :-) they say anyone in the UK can join. Think if you sell to someone who does not live local they pay you by paypal.

    Ooo-er, just sold something on Ebay for £20 :j
    Buuutttt, I'm not sure if it works now :o:(

    I've been relisting on Ebay and Facebook for weeks and although people kept asking about it, no one just actually bought it! And now I discovered that a battery had leaked inside, so while I've cleaned it as much as I can, I don't know if it will work properly. Can't test it now as it takes big D batteries, and we don't have any. Luckily one of my boys' new Christmas presents needs that size too, so won't be a waste of money having to buy some to just check if it's still working.
    Won't mention it to the buyer just yet, as if it all works ok then there's no need :o
    It was fine when I put it in the spare room. Why didn't someone just buy it sooner!!

    OMG, looking in some of your signatures and how much you've already made makes me feel so ashamed!

    I've been playing catch up now since I joined the challenge and have added up my online earnings (since Jan 1st) as follows:

    OnePoll: £4.50 / Adpoints £5.00 / MySurvey 60p / PureProfile £1.20
    Crowdology 56p / WH Smith Surveys £1.72 / Valued Opinions £1.75
    Viewsbank £1.15 / MommyTalk £1.24 / Swagbucks £21.86 / NewVistaLive £1.50 - Giving me a grand total of £41.08

    Add to that £4.00 of pending credits from last month finally crediting and 20p from Nectar Canvas who I signed up tonight with.

    So my current official total for the month is £45.28 / £55 / £155 so I'm only £9.72 off target :o so taking advantage of eBay tomorrow free listings weekend I hopefully that will bump up my earnings for this month - seriously need to apply some more commitment like the rest of you guys!

    Oh hun, no need to feel ashamed, I've just been lucky this month with some bonuses and fortunately having plenty of work on TB. It sounds like you're working really hard, and once you've been doing it for a while things do get easier with things like cashback being paid, etc.

    I reeeeally need to stop being so lazy with ebay.... I have so much to sell, but I find it takes me ages to list, and I struggle to find time to go to the Post Office so I put off listing things on there :o Really need to get around to it and stop procrastinating!
