  • I am not cashing in as yet (so not adding to my total), but here are my paysites totals as of today:
    Inbox Pounds £1.67
    Swagbucks 3164SB
    GlobalTestMarket 95Pts
    Clickworker E0.16


    I figure a weekly tally should help me spot where I am gaining even if my total isn't changing at all yet.

    This week my main focus has been getting to grips with Swagbucks. I have that down now, IP and GTM seem to email me often enough that I don't need to check in unprompted so I shall spend the next week doing the Clickworker assessments and building up my total there.

    My daughter's staff discount kicked in this week so I didn't have to pay for her when we went swimming, so I am adding that £3.20 to my total, putting me on £24.53.

    Well done everyone ! :)

  • Just carved £114 off my home insurance for the coming year.

    Clic and Walk have finally credited me the first assignment I did for them. The projects are a good bit of fun, but I don't think they will make anyone rich! It takes far too long to validate the jobs and they are too few and far between.
  • £10 from argos for spending over £100 so will add that to my total! Very slow going so far!!
    £2015 in 2015 - £45.51/£2015
  • Woohoo...overtime and ebay sale bring my total so far to £412.55
  • Good news is £25 to add for me from a Facebook sale of some crafting items :)


    Bad news is I wrote my car off on Friday after skidding on some mud and ending up in farmers field so all money I am making will now probably be spent on the insurance excess and rise in premiums come June and extra to put towards new car after insurance pay out. Luckily though my daughter and I escaped with only bruising, whiplash and shock so nothing else really matters. The car can be replaced.

    1. £25 compensation from BT due to a major issue with my account.

    2. £10 from a reward's web site.

    3. £6.32 cash from a separate website.

    4. £20 profit from buying and selling a lot.

    5. £5 reward from my Halifax account.

    6. £50 compensation from bank for yet another error, I do seem to be with the worst bank imaginable.

    Total = £116.32/2015 = 5.7%

    Indeed that's what it matters. Glad you are not harmed :)

    I will need to wait and see till end of the month but I think I have already reached the target :)

    Hello, I have been lurking on the MSE forums for a few days now, and looking at all the different challenges I have decided this is the one I want to go for!

    I aim to start 1st of March to keep it all nice and round so I have taken off 59 days from £2015 (Jan and Feb) so am hoping to reach at least that figure of £1688.

    I'm looking forward to the challenge!

    Any hints and tips?
