    Hi!

    I am in rather desperate debt and saw this thread and thought it would be a great idea to join in.

    1. Does it actually have to be £10 each day or is that just averaged (so you can earn £30 one day and nothing the next etc)

    2. It says in the OP that you can "save" the money as well as earn it. What sort of ways can you make the £10 a day by saving - what counts as this ... not spending on something you wanted, or...?

    Thank you and fingers crossed for some extra ££ soon!

    Cheers
    Dan

    Hi & Welcome Dan,

    No it doesn't have to be exactly that amount each day .. it's taken on the averaged .. so really the goal for the month would be £300 (ie £10 x 30 days of April) . It also doesn't have to be £10, some do £5, others £20 etc - the choice is yours!

    With "saving" money ... if you bought £30 food, and had coupons for £5 ... you could count that £5 in your monthly earnings provided you use it to pay off a debt or similar.

    Hope that helps

    Hello fellow money savers :wave: I have really neglected the MSE forums this last month. Seems like everyone has been very busy bees making lots of money though :D

    Am now a full time carer to my nan who is out of hospital after breaking her hip in January. She's now incapable of doing anything for herself so this past month has been a toughie and I've been run ragged with her and the kids.

    I have somehow managed to stay on top of my earnings, finishing March on a final total of £163.43 (£8.43 over target :beer:). I've managed to hit redemption on four sites, one of which was Populus where I made a whopping £22.00 in March, an absolute record as it's taken me since September last year to hit £50!

    I'm up for the April challenge at £5.00 a day again and this month should be a pretty good one as am due £162 or something like that for delivering Yellow pages.

    Hope everyone has a super April....Let's go make some money people :j

    Perfect.... thank you so much. I will stick to my £10 per day and fingers crossed I'll get there by the end of April!

    How old are you?If you are under 19 you can enquire about an.apprenticeship in Health and Socia Care.

    Thanks so much for that idea.
    No over the 19 - but have been looking today and emailed a couple of ads to do some part time.
    Been busy on Ebay -put stuff on .99p auction but no bites yet.


    Seem to have lots of Canon cartridges (empty) and looking for sites to sell them http://!!!!!!!.com/c977nxt they are stupidly expensive but no one seems to want to buy them to refill.

    Wondering if making cakes would be a way to make some money.

    :hello: and welcome to all newbies. And welcome back to regulars, and lurkers :)

    I won't greet you individually as I get accused of all sorts :D

    Have a read of the first and second post, if you are unsure of anything just ask.

    You will find that as people post their totals and how they made them you will get inspiration for moneymaking.

    Try to join in and post every day or at least once a week, it keeps you motivated :)

    And for those who didn't know, it is free listing this weekend on ebay for the full 4 days of the bank holiday.

    Good luck everybody.

    How do you earn from Paypal?
