    Please add me... I do this every year and had a great start with promo work and a work bonus this year already... Will add my January and February totals when I get home to my spreadsheet!

    Thanks for all the ideas so far - I am determined to do well this year, last year i fell by the wayside... Pesky depression but this year I am determined...

    Finding eBay crap at the moment, I have also started buying tickets for popular concerts and selling on StubHub - easy money for very little input. Had a very lucrative mystery shop for £100 from Viewsbank that I hope pays out this monrth and have been doing more promo jobs in evenings and weekends.

    Made a couple of pounds on QMee but not as much as I expected and finding Swagbucks, Gifthunterclub etc very slow so hoping this thread will help motivate me...

    It's my 40th this year and have promised myself 4 holidays, already been to Antigua and got 2 booked for Tenerife just need to book one more... The sunshine is my way of combating my depression but costs a fortune hence why i need to do well in this challenge!

    Hi Mizzame
    Know well about the depression problem! I think that's were I am coming unstuck at the moment, making money but spending it as quick as I am earning it! I think may be if I have a goal such as a holiday to work towards it may motivate me more....think I might price up a holiday.
    What sort of promo work do you do?
    Doing okay earning at the moment, done 3 mystery shopping assignments with Market Force so far this month, but its hard work. Got another to do tomorrow and I have earnt a bit from eBay.
    Must keep going and look forward to some sunshine!
