    ..... Mystery Shopping sounds interesting but there's no much information on the thread its hard to get your head around it when your tired! We don't have a car either so that could be tricky, but live 4 miles from Leeds city centre so can reach the city quite easily on the bus.
    You could have a look at the following thread on the boards


    Mystery shopping thread 26 *please read the op first**please no client names or fees

    There's loads of info so it will take you some time. Good luck

    wow! well done. when I want to book a holiday coming to you!

    as you know I always say, if you can transfer the money saved to savings/debts/holiday fund, etc you should add it. otherwise just add the Avios points.
    I'm going to count it all then Aesop, as I would otherwise be that money short in my holiday funds.


    If you want help anytime - just ask. I love looking around trying to save some money and beat the b**tards :rotfl:

    yes if you have phsyically moved the money, add it.

    Thank you Aesop, yes the money has been moved to separate account so I will count it - all the money in my signature is either in a separate account, PayPal waiting to be transferred or vouchers, for which money will be transferred when they have been spent.
    I only count theses transaction, have made a few other 'virtual' savings but haven't counted them

  • Got a bid which will bring me in about £20 - so that's a start.

    However I had a woman pick up an electrical item which was an unwanted gift - so brand new - still in the box apart from photo's.

    Picked it up at 5:45 - Messgaed me 11:49 - saying "One of the elements doesn't work !

    What's terh betting when I take it apart (I'll fix it if she's genuine) - I find a manky old element burnt out which has been swapped for teh brand new one ?

    SO £ 17 to take away from my Jan Report !

    Morning everyone :) what amazing totals coming in already this month :j well done!!

    I had some money in my payza account which i was going to transfer to my bank account... then discovered a fee of £2.50 to move $15 :eek: so i used it to rent extra refs on Neo instead which should bring me in some extra money over the month instead of paying a fee ;)

    According to my spreadsheet i earned £16.75 yesterday on all my activities but not received yet so not adding...

    I finally got some things listed on the bay so hope i make some sales on there this month.

    Oh still making my £15 payment off the mortgage daily too...

    Plenty of WIP items underway even though no pennies to actually add :)

    Good morning all!

    Turns out my bank's packaged account refund was just the fees and just got a cool £25.71 interest from them, starting me off for feb.
    Close to cash out on some surveys and some small bids on ebay listings due to end at some point in the next few days!

    I am amazed at some of your totals for feb already, it's only the 3rd!

    Happy wednesday!

    Brilliant results so far, everyone:T. What an inspiring bunch you all are every single month:A


    Aesop, just popped in to tell you that we've got a mention in Martin's email this week:j. Didn't we also get one a few months ago too? Thought it might cheer you up anyway after all your hard work helping and motivating us every month:A

    It's right at the bottom, could be missed unless people read every bit of the email. Copied and pasted here:

    THE QUICKIES

    - Debt-Free Wannabe chat of the week: Make £10 a day challenge
    - Competitions thread of the week: Trip to Northern Ireland
    - Old-Style board thread of the week: Lots more sneaky ways to save pennies
    - Discussion of the week: Getting through January



    Strangely, when I clicked on the link it took me to the December thread but who cares? We got a mention:j. Get ready to welcome lots of new recruits as a result:beer:

    That's shocking, Procrastinater! What a cheek some people have:eek:

    Has this sort of thing ever happened to you before?

    Well done on the sale that went through trouble-free anyway:T
