Teacher2301

Need some encouragement and new ideas guys - still got about £200 in Quidco but that doesn't come through until December...Any ideas for raising some more cash to get to at least £500?

Hi Teacher, have you tried looking into doing surveys for cash or into mystery shopping. I think its on the freebie board where they have a list of survey sites and there's a thread on the debt free wannabe site regarding mystery shopping.

Thats definitely how i've got my total up.

£8 for me to add from £2 coins. havent made a stistch this week. in fact was almost down thanks to nigerian scammers on amazon. oh well. i decided i may stop doing weightwatchers though wich will be another £10 a week to the challenge i think i need the money and i have all the stuff to do it on my own now.

OK, time for an update and confession from me. I should have in my savings account about £120 from eBay and other sales as below, but I had a small crisis, needed to buy some essential stuff, and had to bail myself out by borrowing it. So the total in my savings account is currently nil! Am planning to replace it over the next couple of months out of normal wages (with careful spending) so will leave it in for now - but if I don't do that I'll be taking it off my total and giving myself a hard slap!

Anyway, here's where I am (or should be )...

The have/ should or will pay out in time ones -

eBay/ Greenmetropolis/ other sales - £120.80
Quidco - £28.62
Ciao - £6.94
Mutualpoints - £0 (pays £20 for 3000 points, currently have 1029)
Yougov - £46.75 (pays at £50 min)
Lightspeed - £3
Overtime at work - £70
Change jar - £1.20

---

Total - £277.31

The probably won't pay out in time ones -

Pureprofile - £11.35 (pays at £25 min)
Home of Research - £3.85 (pays at £20 min)
Itsyourview - £12 (pays at £50 min)

---

Total - £27.20

Well I've got my total up to £210.88 from renewal of my car insurance and breakdown through quidco, and more daily clicks, and amazon. I still think I'll be hard pressed to get to £1000, but every little helps! Good luck all xx

Not been on here for a while and haven't had much time to do any money saving.

Sold a book on Amazon today for a £20 profit so was pleased. My current total stands at £401, will update my signature when i can but must go and complete my end of course assignment for O.U, which i keep putting off!

Well done to everyone so far.

:wave: Hey lovelies!

I've gone off the boil a bit on this. :embarasse

I had a couple of parcels go missing on eBay - and I hadn't sent them Recorded... :doh: plus I had a lady on Amazon who said she didn't actually want those things she bought and paid for - her kid had done it... so I've been starting to get that :wall: :wall: :wall: feeling!

I've done a bunch of mystery shops but they haven't cleared to my bank account yet, neither have my Paypal funds.

(and I did buy a couple of books on eBay out of my profits as well. )

So no actual progress to report really, but all @r$e kickings welcome!

Love Jacks xxx

Hiya guys - just dropped by to see how you are all doing. Keep going it's amazing what we can all achieve collectively.

I'm also looking at this thread as due to a few unexpected bills I need to make some money quick sharp.

I have lost half a stone on my new diet so shedding pounds in one way but hoping to gain some pounds in another.

Hi all,
Well I have been doing extra work of an evening. Not sure how much this will make - will add to my total when I get paid for it (probably mid Nov)
I have sent for £15 worth of vouchers from Pigsback, when they arrive will use them for Xmas pressies and add the money to my bank account. I am getting bored with daily clicks - Kelko seem to have stopped tracking fopr me, but have made a few ££ ordering DD's travel insurance through Quidco. (Kicking myself as I could booked her accomodation through there as well but didn't noticed untill it was too later) Anyway will update sig when money arrives. Keep up the good work everyone.
