I can recommend two online survey sites-- MySurveyUk and OpinionOutpostUK. They won't make you rich but you can make a few extra quid. I joined 11 days ago and i've had £30 paid into my paypal and I have another £5 coming.Pay-outs since 28/11/2013:
OpinionOutpostUK - £245 MySurvey - £68 Swagbucks - £255 Clixsense - $935 Crowdology - £40 PineCone - £48 Panelbase - £30 IPSOS - £30 ValuedOpinions - £30 GTM - £600 -
Hello,
First of all your doing really well by only having a grocery bill of £260 for 6. So you're definitely good with money.
How much does your OH smoke and drink per week?
Did you sell the bike? I hope not to pay for christmas but to pay your debt off because christmas doesn't have to be expensive. How much debt do you have?
I agree with the survey sites. I do ValuedOpinion and Ipsos and only do them in my lunch break and maybe earn £10-20 in Amazon vouchers per month that will go towards birthday presents and christmas.
Good luck and we'll have a look at your SOA and see what else you can maybe change.03/26: OD £1200 600 500, CC £3914 3317, family £3100, loan £5618 5306 5036- total: £13832 12323 12003, mortgage £58,243 £57,766 571140 -
Based on the information you've provided you seem quite sensible and are doing all of the necessary things to reduce your outgoings especially £260pm to feed six mouths. My bill for three is more than that a month

There are quite a few ways in which to bring in a little extra income like doing surveys which are constantly mentioned on this forum - Crowdology and ClixSense are two that comes to mind. If you like writing then, you could start your own blog and engage with other people. You could then monetise the site either with affiliate links/banners (not to many though) and/or join the Google Adsense program and get paid that way.Lao Tzu - "Give a man a fish and feed him for a day, teach a man to fish and feed him for a lifetime"
