    I've banked my first £20 and should have about £70-80 coming in overtime (paid next month I think). Chucked a bit more in change jar but I'll count that up when I can be bothered! Well done everyone so far :)

    Ah, there you all are!

    I'm back off hols and ready to go! I'm gonna go for Gold although think that's pretty unlikely as I have 3 big birthdays to pay for in between, so if I only manage a bronze then that's ok.

    Wooohooo. Right, done all the quidco'ing etc. from last challenge so where do I start :confused:

    Gonna ebay like mad at the weekend, might even look into selling my books and cds on amazon. Starting AQA'ing this week so hopefully that might bump up my figures a bit there. I'm gonna read this thread now see if I can find any other good ideas.

    Glad to be joining you all again :D

  • I have £93.30 pending in my cashback accounts (made in the last week) so I'm gonna include that in my total- minus £3.00 that I spent to get some of the cashback.

    Must list the ipod shuffle that I won, on ebay... that should add another £30-£40 to my total.

    So far so good! I also have a set of Volvo car seats that my mum gave me to flog, they've been living in the corner of my room for a good few weeks... I have no idea where to advertise them though! Any ideas??
  • See signature for update towards challenge - have about £180 in Quidco acc. but that gets paid in Nov - that will go towards total as well.

    Nerds rule! :cool:
  • I'm a little bit new, but I'd like to join in too please. I'd like to aim for £500 by December.

    I'm already signed up quidco, lightspeed and global something or other. Can anyone recommend any other good cashback and survey sights and maybe even give me a refferal

    Thanks

    Welcome Little Miss Sunshine! I think there are lots of survey sites etc on the first post of this thread, or try the sticky at the top of the board for "maximising income" which might give you some ideas. Good luck!

    Today I have added £30.84 from matched betting and done £2.06 of quidco stuff which will be pending. I will update my list properly each week. I've also got £50 hopefully coming from some bank account referral stuff but I have no definite proof of that one yet so won't count my chickens just yet.

    hope everyone else is having a good start!

    Hi Little.Miss.Sunshine,
    I have recieved a really good guide to cashback sites from EagerLearner. If you PM her she may be able to send it to you.

    Hi all,

    another great site to use and bookmark is http://www.ilovefreebiesuk.co.nr/

    Am sure it was designed by another mse, great site with loads of cashback sites, survey sites, mystery shopping sites and other great sites which are listed on there.

    The person who designed it made it so easy to use as well.

    I have never posted a link on here before so if i have done it wrong please let me know as i am not sure about the rules on posting links. :o Cheers
