Unless I'm somewhere wrong, but all that effort for £10 here and there for a lot of hours work?
It would be far better to get an evening job once a week paying minimal wage for a few hours????"No likey no need to hit thanks button!":pHowever its always nice to be thanked if you feel mine and other people's posts here offer great advice:D So hit the button if you likey:rotfl:0 -

Agree. All that fannying around, sat on your bum playing on the computer, for a few quid here and there. If you work Monday to Friday, get a weekend job, shop work on a Saturday or bar work, or waiting on. Early evening cleaning job for a couple of hours after your days work.

what about bar work, just ask them if you can do the shifts you want.0 -
I wouldn't touch Swagbucks with a barge pole. I tried it and it managed to hijack my home page which I really was not happy with. Had to do a deep registry clean to get rid of it.
As for extra income- any chance of overtime at work?
Or being a mystery shopper?
Also don't forget to give yourself a pay rise by checking you are paying as little as possible for everything.Paid off the last of my unsecured debts in 2016. Then saved up and bought a property. Current aim is to pay off my mortgage as early as possible. Currently over paying every month. Mortgage due to be paid off in 2036 hoping to get it paid off much earlier. Set up my own bespoke spreadsheet to manage my money.0 -

I've managed to get all my bills down and clear all my debt. I may be able to do that if I can get hold of my work rota a while in advance which is proving impossible atm :-( applied for mystery shopping but heard nothing back yet and they won't give us overtime now coz they tryin to cut costs. SxxDebt free finally :j

I cant understand what people are saying about it being £10 here and there but every little counts. I do most of my online activity at work during my lunch break and I very rarely do it at the weekends. I think the key is to enjoy it and not to expect to be rolling in it straight away. The money I get from doing it is tax free and yes its not a great deal but its helped me out towards xmas and birthday gifts. I have had part time jobs in pubs and bars on several occasions when Ive needed to and its tough but no impossible to do along side a full time job.:money::rotfl::T0

Do you have a spare bedroom in your home? If so consider either taking in a lodger, or if you don't want the long term commitment, try hosting foreign students where you can make a fair bit of money from the comfort of your own home but also probably enjoy earning it too!0
