  • Hi all!

    Been a slow week for me, but I've got paid £3 PayPal from Pinecone Research this afternoon.

    Also got another £5 pending from MySurvey but I won't add that until it's actually credited to my account.

    Managed to sell something today for £15, taking my total up to £107.25. I don't think I've got any hope of getting anywhere close to my £310 target, but it's all extra money that I didn't have and every little helps! I'm struggling to think of other ways to make money now though, other than surveys. They're not really going to get me closer to my target on their own. Any help or tips?

    Cheers,

    Gaz

    Do you have old mobile phones that you no longer use? Recycle them using martins mobile recycler.

    Any old cds/dvds that you n longer want? Sell them on

    Books/clothes do the same.

    Have a smart phone? Do some of the apps in second post.

    Can you do focus groups? Not necessarily frequent jobs but every little helps.

    Can you craft? Make things to sell.
  • Right - I know its a bit late in the day to be starting this but I've just seen it so I'd like to go for a conservative £5 a day making it £40 if I start today!! Right I've got 5hrs!

    Another £12 profit from avon, have another £68 due in too, but will count it when I have the cash.
    Got my New Vista cheque - £50, well pleased with that.
    Found 5p cleaning my room, will go in the penny pot and I'll count it when it gets bagged up and paid in.
    Found £5, I forgot about, in a handbag.
    Mystery shopping payment is due Monday, will count that when I get it.
    So...
    £67 cash
    £98 pending before end of month.

    Hello everyone, I continue to marvel at how well everyone does, and I totally agree that *any* extra money is a bonus.

    I've added:

    37p Qmee
    £3 Pinecone
    1.60 Santander 123 cashback
    7.34 Santander 123 interest
    54p nectr points (added not spent) from groceries and petrol
    1p roadkill from by my local. Co--p.

    I still have a mystery shopping payout and a mileage claim which I have scheduled for this month. For next month there should be ms payouts from two more companies as I have made the leap from the first one I signed up for to a couple more that pay a smidgen more, can't bring myself to do the burger/chicken one though!

    Have a lovely weekend everyone, good luck all.

    Updating with a massive £150 - £140 bingo win landed in my account and £10 Quidco. Brings my total to £576.76.

    I'm planning on lots of writing today, and hopefully taking some eBay photos later for whenever next free listing is. And eBay auctions end this weekend, currently have one bid.

    Best wins: £3,000 luxury holiday, holiday in Cornwall, £250 Murad Skincare hamper, angle grinder

  • Hi Everyone

    I know it is really late in the month but can I please join? I have been lurking and reading how everyone is doing and have been running my own challenge.

    Inspired by you all I have listed some items on fle*bay and manged to sell 2 - but I am not sure how much I have to pay in fees etc. so I don't know whether I list the sale price or wait until I can work out how much the sale and post etc. has cost me.

    Ditto with mileage claim re: tax

    I am going to sit down and work out my current total for the month which I will post here later - just wanted to get started otherwise I will remain lurking.

    Goal £10.00 a day
    Make £10 a day January 2014 £372.50/310.00:j
    Make £15 February 2014 £1453.71/420:j:T:j
    Make £15 March 2014 £477.38/£465:j
    Make £15 a day April 2014 £2.50/£450:(
