Some fab totals there, peeps. I've stalled a bit, nothing extra made since middle of March!!!
Slightly running out of ideas, need to regroup.
On the plus side I have been not spending budgeted money on baby and maternity stuff due to swapping, making etc. so not all bad. So definitely some savings to come there.:A :heartpuls June 2014 / £2014 in 2014 / £735.97 / 36.5%0 -

Shame that the original post hasn't been updated in weeks. Would be nice to see that I've completed the challenge on there! Sure others would like a motivational push too!This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0

Well for April so far I have £17.30 for trading in a bunch of DVDs with Cex. Need to get rid of the books next, and clear out the craft stuff.0

Thinking I might have to revise my approach of not including work overtime - there'll be more time for external bonus income like ebay once we've moved but it's taking so long! Will start counting overtime from this month I think...
Well done everyone!0 -
Still earning well, mainly though eBay sales, market research, a cashback website and cashing in loyalty points.:j
Does anyone do a tax return for their market research? If so, do you include both the assignment payment and the goods payment e.g. if I went to a restaurant I would get £10 to spend and £3.50 for doing the actual job. Would you declare £13.50? or just £3.50?
Doing well earning but bought myself a (second hand) car, I didn't need it, just wanted it! So broke one of Martin's rules! This has taken my debt free date back by 1 year.:(
I am spending the money I earn on two holidays this year, but trying to get them at the right price. Think this is always a great motivating factor for earning/saving money. So I am going to try really hard over the next few months to realise these dreams.:TCompetition wins £14,136.30[\COLOR]0
