    Added another £400 ish this week from a huge mystery shopping marathon plus bumper payout from quidco thanks to car insurance cashback finally being paid.

    Don't have an exact breakdown but include:

    Mystery shopping - signed up to new companies
    Matched betting
    Quidco
    Ebay - this has totalled about £1800 of my total
    Cancelled my cleaner
    Amazon
    1 Car boot sale

    Thanks to this challenge I have made huge overpayments on my credit cards, so thank you to all for the inspiration and the motivation xx

    There were a couple of happy accidents in there mind you, where I should have had approx £50 profit and got £200 due to refunds. Total flukes.

    And it did take several months, please read the newbie thread thoroughly and remember that was peak football season!
