    Good evening, I eventually have some more money to add to the pot, which consists of:

    £15.75 for some phone answering work that I done
    £77.17 for some content writing work
    £19 for survey work
    30p cashback from mysuper*arket
    £1.87 from Asda vouchers

    This new money takes my balance to £459.43/£500 (£40.57 to make before the end of the month)

    Was thinking today when I first joined MSE back in the day :)

    I remember always reading this thread thinking how on earth do people make an extra £10 a day :eek: I know I could never do that :)
    So joined the make an extra payment a week challenge instead which really helped me a lot.
    Then when I got braver I joined this thread and to be honest now I don't know what I would have done without it :rotfl:
    So to anyone who lurks on this thread and thinks there is no way I could do that :( You sure as hell can do it :T:T:T
    I am living proof of that along with all the other regulars who make that little bit extra every month :):)

    I am having a spectacular week - $2125 from a jewellery sale, $2145 today from the insurance, and today I was pulled to one side by a partner and told I was being put forward by two of the partners for a Christmas bonus!!!!! Totally unexpected but this has been the best financial week in memory. Way, way cool! :D

    It's a year tomorrow since I joined this site and I too thought no way could I make £5 or £10 a day, there are some very resourceful people round these parts and I am very pleased to have been able to follow the examples everyone sets here - I've joined MS sites, Forestpeople surveys and even Qmee as well as starting Facebook selling since joining, I think I'd just started on eBay when I joined the thread and was into various n3ctar point boosting schemes!

    I am adding £5.05 for today, £3.40 for overestimating eBuy postage cost (oh well never done that before, won't make a habit of it!) and £1.65 after fees/postage for selling a jumper on there and just been paid.

    I'm promised £50 from a sale on the last weekend of the month, am told £100 cashback should show up in my account within 7 days, maybe the fact I tweeted about it may have helped. I've also been in touch with Utlity Whouse to get a refund on my gas, I've been paying over the odds for months and have a credit of £258, this means they are going to take next month's bill out of that and pay me the rest. I have about £60 in credit on my electricity account as well, think I need to ring back about that. Have requested to pay what I use each month instead of on a fixed amount, which will mean more in the winter in the long run and less in the summer but thought I'd give it a go, being as there's £310 in credit!

    Did a MS at lunchtime and have booked two more, getting a few lined up for payment next month.

    Nobody wants my wii though :)

    £3 from a Gumtree Sale

    So now at £84.26

    Requested another £5 from SBs so should have that by the end of the month too. Slowly but surely.

    Wow! Good to read about your experiences... encouraging.
    I see many of you included refunds so I'll add my 36.42 from TV license cancellation (sign to be updated).
    I'm also in credit with my gas+electricity, around 300 pounds and I'm about to move so I hope to get back some money soon from there as well. (I reallly tried to cut back on heating, it was off for the whole summer so I expect a big sum.)
    Need to put my stuff on ebay this weekend and enter some gumtree and preloved ads.
