    Posts 1 and 2 updated now.

    Pinecone is not recruiting at the moment, so link is not working.

    Consumerpulse are recruiting through shop and scan. You need to apply to the panel https://www.volunteers4panels.co.uk and ask to join consumerpulse and then wait to see if you are successful.

    I am not going to list all the survey companies as there are too many and we all have differing opinions on them. I have put a link to an mse thread started about it, so have a read.

    For selling books/cd/clothes you can also try musicmagpie but I find they are very low prices. Sometimes maybe better than nothing if you just want rid! :D

    As always read the first and second post for ideas, list any you do that have not been mentioned, doesn't matter if someone else has mentioned it before. It is always good to have a reminder.

    There are lots of ideas out there,it is all about how much time you have and what you can manage.

    People do daily clicks, phone apps, surveys, sell old clothes on Facebook selling pages, ebay, netmums, gumtree, etc. I have sent of some stamps I have collected from envelopes and am waiting for the company to tell me how much they will pay me.

    People have sold old broken gold and silver. You will be surprised how much it is worth.

    On my facebook selling page yesterday a lady was trying to sell her grandfather clock for pittance! Until someone very helpfully suggested to her that she get it valued and maybe trying auctioning it! She found out it was worth thousands!!! :rotfl: :T Guess where she is selling it now? Not on facebook! LOL.

    :hello:! I thought you had left us now as you were debt free :) nice to see you again. x
  • Hi :hello:

    Going to try again for £10 this month - hopefully will do a bit better than September. Would really like to get this debt down before baby arrives - less than 3 months to go now :eek:

    Already have £17 from supermarket vouchers, really need to pay more attention to the survey and review sites though.
    PAD: £4843.10 (loan paid, yay!)
    One debt vs 100 days: £288.73 / £750
    £20 a day: March £838.97 / £620 April £224.53 / £600


    Total debt 04/2015: £13,997.51

    Off the blocks. I found a £2.04 Mr T voucher and got £3 of luncheon vouchers in the post from P1necone. Had to go to Tesco anyway for much needed stuff and my bill came to exactly.... £5.04. Free shopping! I couldn't do that twice lol. Adding £5.04 as I would have had to pay it out.

    I won't add this to my total but just got back from my bank. I need back statements for three accounts urgently and was told on the phone it would cost £45 (barstewards!). When I got there an old friend was on the counter. I explained the situation and that DH had been made redundant and under the evil eye of a colleague she printed them off, stamped them to make them official and handed them over for free. She'll no doubt get in bother but what a star x
    MSE-ing since 2007
