    Can i ask something? You guys that take clothes to cash 4 clothes - is there much that gets turned down by them? Also if it is turned down by them what do you do with it? If its thrown in the bin i may have an idea for monetising it - just want to check first what kind of turn down rate they have!

    My Cash 4 Clothes is a little independent one, they won't take anything with works logos on or any stains :) I had a Tshirt with a logo on politely declined, I threw it in a bin outside the shop.
  • Woo hoo £10 win on the lottery last night :j & 3 things finishing later on eBay that have bids on them so it's going to be a close one

    Heading out for dinner later but have a voucher that will cover most of the cost - cant really claim that as I got the voucher a couple of months ago :rotfl:

  • Good afternoon everyone, This has month has not been very productive as I have got nowhere near my target, finishing September on a total of £89.56, which consists of:
    • Price check vouchers £6.05
    • TCB £4.09
    • Scanning £60
    • Adpoints 62p
    • Surveys £10.80
    • MSing £8

    Although I have not hit my target I have been working on a few things:
    • Surveys and other similar sites
    • Opened a bank account purely for this challenge
    • Sorted a spreadsheet to keep track of the income
    • Make a motivation board with all the things that I would like to do/get with the money that I make doing this challenge

    I think think that is everything that I have done this month towards this challenge. Now bring on October
  • eBay sales finished, bringing in £48.81, so that takes my total up to £102.88 for the month. Still haven't managed £5 a day, but I have made over £100 that I wouldn't have had for each of the last 2 months, so I'm happy I'm making progress! See you in October, you never know, I might even make my target!

    Thanks for all the kind words re Connor everyone Xx

    My Mum and Sister each had a wardrobe clear out the other day and gave me what they didn't want to keep. I've just weighed most of it in and got £8.75.

  • Lol Dh has just said to me guess what we have won a £10 on the lottery - he had out our numbers on as well as me - for once I'm glad he never listens to me:rotfl:

    Another £10 to the pot I think I might actually do it:j
