    Hi...I made loads of money with the help of this challenge some years ago and would like to join again. With a toddler and a full time job, I have limited time so am hoping it's ok to have a very modest target this month of £50.

    So far I've made 30p on OnePoll. Well it's a start!
    Mortgage (original/ current):193,000 (23/09/11)/ £102,500 (07/11/2019)
    2019 Challenges: Make £300 a month: £9.71/£300 (January)

    over 52 weeks you will earn £1378 and interest hopefully, depending where your money is saved. mine has gone into my credit union account.

    I couldn't find this thread, was searching in debt free diaries where it was last month.

    Had a very bad month in December, just £15 SBs payout and some roadkill, then work, volunteering and Christmas all took over and I couldn't focus on this anymore.

    But it's a new month, a new year and I'm ready to start again. The bag of clothes I need to sell are going to get listed, the bits that didn't sell on Gumtree are going to be relisted, I've got some coins so send off, I'm going to try some book selling sites and continue with SBs and other survey sites.

    So I'm going for £310 please - maybe I'll actually crack it this month :o

    YOU'RE RIGHT! :eek:
    sorry I moved it when I started new thread and didn't even realise!

    probably not a bad thing as more people will see it here, although the oldies are probably struggling to find it :o
  • Made £22 selling CDs to https://www.webuybooks.co.uk - Ive noticed they have lowered the minimum amount needed from £15 to £10 which does help. so going to sell some of my old textbooks to them tomorrow!

    Also they have recently posted a new year voucher code giving you an extra 10% on all offers.

    Good Luck Everyone!!!
