    Well, not a great 1st month for me XD Earned a few pennies on Ciao but don't want to total those until I'm actually at a payout point. Got a bunch of points from DooYoo (got 2 crowns! First time ever!) but again, not enough to cash out. I published an ebook on Amazon, which has sold a few times, but again...no actual money in my account.

    SO this month it's £0 for me, but now I've finished the ebook I have given myself a month off before I start the next one so this weekend I will be clearing out my DVDs and seeing what I can sell from those :D

    EDIT! £co suddenly paid me £2.02 this morning! So my Feb is no longer 0! That'll teach me to post before the last day XD

    COTTA- Bank shifts are extra shifts at work. I work for NHS so extra shifts have to be done by signing up with an agency who provide staff when needed. I cannot work over my contracted hours at work and if I do it is then recorded as time owed that I am able to claim back and work a few less hours when possible. To earn extra cash I have to pick up extra hours through the agency
