hi haybel, saw your comment on another thread and thought id come over to say hi!
im a sahm, just started my diary on here.
well done on the competitions!! you'v had some fab wins! i might have to take a look over on the comp boards. i do a few survey sites, valued opinions, mysurvey and i joined nectar adpoints last night. going to look into swagbucks soon too. not really done much ebaying, everything we dont want or need just goes into the loft, really should try and sell it. do you pay your debts off with your ebay sales or use it as treat money?
good luck with your plans
Thank you. Do hope you will subscribe to my diary and pop by. Do you have a diary? I love entering competitions- its very addictive. I enter loads of competitions and its lovely when you get a surprise. You must give it a go.
I went back to valued opinions today, used to use it awhile ago, and have 3.25 built up again so far.. Im enjoying swagbucks and earnt ten pounds last week which was my first week.
Sometimes I use ebay money for treats, sometimes things we need, and when i'm being extra good it comes off what we owe.Make £10 a day challenge November £125.60/310

You are doing brilliant on the competitions, I have been looking into cashback sites, we get some good deals through work but it takes ages to come through. Got £65 cashback on OH phone upgrade in Dec but it wont clear until next month, oh well at least ive not spent it.
Good luck with the to list for today! and remeber as long as there are clothes to wear, you can use the toilet and there is space to cook, housework can wait with a new baby xx
Lol down time whats that?:rotfl: Hope you will subscribe and pop by... Looking forward to keeping up with your adentures on your diary.
Entering competitions is great fun and well worth a go. What cashback sites do you use? I really ought to check them out.Make £10 a day challenge November £125.60/310

Join more survey sites and check for surveys on existing
Book craft fair

Work on ideas for potential craft articles...
as well as HOUSEWORK!!!
I must dig out my superwoman cape...! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
well.... didnt get anywhere near as much as I'd hoped.. this evening baby has been grumpy and my poor dog has been sick... (other half works nights so I try and be as quiet as a mouse during the day, and get lots done evenings normally)
Have packaged all the ebay parcels to go tomorrow but didnt get round to adding any more listings.
Did a survey on valued opinions that I used to use a couple of years ago, put my balance to £3.25. Did some surveys on swagbucks... entered loads of competitions... and some housework but thats about it...
Oh well there's always tomorrow... the way to hell is paved with good intentions ... :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:Make £10 a day challenge November £125.60/310

well so far i've been a very good girl- all ebay items posted, been to tesco and farm foods shopping, have been on swagbucks (slow going today) and done a survey on valued opinions. Mind you the rest of the to do list is likely to roll over lol...
Going to enter some competitions in a bit, and i've tasked myself with checking out a new survey site tonight. Other half working till midnight, then off all weekend- well till sunday nights overtime.
Might even fit a cheeky nap in ... im so tired... Baby has last feed at midnight then settle her back to sleep then OH wakes me up at 6am when he gets in as he hasnt really mastered the whole being QUIET thing...:rotfl: and thats assuming our princess hasnt woke me up in the meantime!! lol
Lots of challenge progress to report- one debt 100 days- have taken 120 off the overdraft which is 9.6% yay! Payment a day have paid £12.50 and sealed pot challenge have put £1 in my pot...
Hoping they run earn ten a day in feburary challenge, ive been reading the January thread since I found it a few days ago and i'm keen to see if I can do it...Also going to re-read and catch up with the online earnings thread- loads of sites mentioned and want to check them out... Love the challenges find them really motivating.
Right off for my cheeky nap...:rotfl: Bet my Princess wakes up now :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:Make £10 a day challenge November £125.60/310

Been to bingo today with a friend- had several small wins between us. :j
Added £4.40 to my terramundi pot for the sealed pot challenge, and for the payment a day challenge sent £7.50 off what I owe my mum.
Coming down with a rotten cold, absolutely streaming, and got really sore throat. Think i must be quite run down, catching everything at the moment.Make £10 a day challenge November £125.60/310

Got a streaming cold... feeling very lazy...
Claimed another £5 Amazon voucher on swagbucks last night- using the vouchers I earn for presents... Finding swagbucks hard going today, havent qualified for any surveys, not even the daily one- so have only managed about 30sb... oh well....
But have been taking advantage of ebay's free listing day, added five new listings so far...:j Got tons more to add :j Fingers crossed for lots of bids and sales...:j:j:jMake £10 a day challenge November £125.60/310
