    Am following you &bramalfie.

    Have just joined up to bubblews myself, after reading all the positive comments regarding payment on here, so if anyone wants to follow me - http://www.bubblews.com/account/382402-discodeb

    I'm a bit sporadic with writing so far, as I'm struggling with what to write, but am sure I'll so get into the mindset of writing about anything and everything.

    Anyway, in addition to that, I have just earned £10.75 gift card through selling via Amazon Marketplace. All done very quickly, and as I need to get some GCSE books from Amazon anyway, I'm counting that as real money.

    Things have been pretty hectic for me, writing those finance articles (just two to go and one to rewrite) and trying to get Bubblews to be worth it. I made $25 in a week and $5 yesterday so I think I am close to "cracking it".

    I have updated the challengers and I have some money to add:
    £4 mystery shop
    £10 Qustodian (I have deleted the app now)
    £24.81 in Paypal which is a combination of Crowdology, Qmee, AppTrailers and Pinecone.

    My total for the month so far is £391.85.

    Still waiting for:
    $50 Bubblews
    £80 (minus PeoplePerHour fees)
    £40 Freelance work
    Potential £50 for advertising on my blog

    OH and I forgot to say that we had our bill from NPower and we were £180 in credit. I tweeted that we were in credit and they messaged me on Twitter and got it all sorted out! We will be getting the refund next week sometime. I'm so happy - we switched to NPower and they predicted our payments to be £112 per month, which I tried to argue but they wouldn't have it. They then lowered our payments to £54 per month and we were still getting in credit (including over winter). They wanted to lower them to £38 (VERY MSE) but I've asked to keep them around £50 to see where that leaves us. That's the only great thing about Mr emmaglet and I working opposite shifts - we don't splurge and have the heating on for just one of us, and our electricity use is low.
    I like to make money
    Best wins: £3,000 luxury holiday, holiday in Cornwall, £250 Murad Skincare hamper, angle grinder


    :j Make £10 a day challenger - it pays for trips to Florida! :j
