    Gosh this month is dragging for me! My latest earnings are:

    $5 swagbucks (Amazon voucher)
    $1 Instagc (Also in the form of an Amazon voucher)
    Your biggest asset is TIME! I'm focused on multi-generational financial freedom.

    Completely off topic, but.... I have a fine with the council library. Lost books (2) which i think got lost when i moved home a while back. Anyway, called them to find out what the fine was and it was nearly £40!! Aarrgg!! Mainly made up by the cost of the books. Anyway, i can buy the books new for next to nothing compared to the retail price the library want to change me. Do you think they will allowed me to buy them and replace them rather than having to pay full cost of an old book?

    I emailed them to ask (didn't dare call up, lol) and after a week i still don't have a reply. What do you all think?? Is it cheeky??

    Hi CountingPennies, I used to work in a library and we would accept books that the customer had purchased themselves as long as they were the same edition as (or newer than) the ones that had been lost - if you buy the most up-to- date edition you should be fine, but perhaps check first to make sure you don't waste your money.

    Hi CP. I don't think it's cheeky at all but a good idea. I would mail them again direct to chief librarian.

    Well I called them up about 15 minutes ago and they said they would speak to someone in charge and call me back. Fingers crossed they will let me.

    £9.45 to add from Viewsbank and £33.08 from other eBay sales brings my total to: £133.66

    I'm off to take my £3k holiday win tomorrow - 2 nights in some very posh hotel and it is my birthday on Wednesday, so I won't be around until Friday. I've got nothing else up my sleeve, except £16.50 in MS payments from last month and £180 bingo that isn't due until 3rd March, so I'm not sure I'll get it this month. Hopefully I'll get a chance to relist some eBay things tomorrow before we set off, but I doubt it. I really need to think of *something*
    I like to make money
    Best wins: £3,000 luxury holiday, holiday in Cornwall, £250 Murad Skincare hamper, angle grinder

    Hey all, I would like to join in again this month, sorry I'm a bit late, I am without broadband due to a fault when I switched providers:mad:, but have got a dongle until it gets rectified...

    I am aiming for £20 a day, but not off to a wonderful start
    £10 to paypal from mysurvey
    £2.80 (after fees and postage) ebay sale

    Have a mystery shop payment pending but won't make any actual money as I ate the profit:D, but free dinner for me and DS...Have done more and have a couple lined up for tomorrow and next day, but won't declare until I'm paid.

    Got a workshop this weekend but only 3 participants lined up ATM:( Still should be £50ish profit all being well.

    Also have avon to distribute so that'll be a bit more

    I'll be back:p

  • £11.82 ebay profit and £1.81 quidco cashback added to sig.

    Good news re: free listing tomorrow if I qualify. Hopefully will make up for some poor sales at the weekend. Enjoy your posh hotel Emmaglet!
