Hello, NUMBER 36
Not sure if this counts but returned unneeded (but very much wanted) clothes to Next = £52 and underwear returned to Asda = £14.
Well done on returning the items. I always return stuff too if I suddenly think 'what was I thinking!' It is better to return them and have the cash than end up putting stuff in the cupboard or worse selling on ebay / carboot for a fraction of the cost later one. A good positive step in the right direction x :jMake £/day March: £1490.85 / £310

Pm me your twitter id. Let's see if I can help. Are you on fb too?
Thanks, I think I have sorted it now. Time will tell I suppose.
Lacking motivation today. Feel like I haven't slept for a week! Trying to organise my hospital bag but have no oomph.
Got a free Graze box this morning. Going to add £4 for that.

Hey guys.
Lots of money making activity from you all, and so early in the month too! I'm a bit concerned that some freelance work I was banking on for this month isn't going to show, so will have to get creative on how to earn the extra magic beans.
Yesterday I emptied my penny jar, accumulating £9 and made £5 from some cupcakes a friend commissioned. So that's £14/£310 for me thus far.
Surveys have been slim on the ground, so I listed 10 items on Amazon last night as an alternative avenue. It made me sad how little my once prescious possessions are now worth, but a new washing machine is worth more to me now than an unwatched DVD boxset!
Anywho, enough from me. Have a great day all.

£35.35 cashback confirmed on TCB (was meant to be £50 but suppose I can't complain) Hopefully this changes to payable soon.
Making the most of feeling crap and chasing up a few complaints.0
