    I did it last night. He's also posted an identical post on another thread I subscribe to. He's a total newbie too, obviously joined just to spam:eek:

    Just sat and caught up with the thread so far - everyone is doing really well!

    Returned last night from our stay on the childrens ward following Little Man's foot reconstruction. He's very sore and we are both knackered!! He's not allowed to weight bare for 6 weeks - so glad I used some of my make £10 money on a second hand wii u, as that is gonna be a nightmare once he's feeling better!!

    Going to spend the day ebay listing and seeing if any of the surveys in my inbox are still valid!! And napping on the sofa :rotfl:

    tell him I was non weight bearing for 3 months! and I was stuck in our flat as I couldn't physically leave without assistance as the steps were too high and I was scared off falling over!

    I feel his pain! good luck with fleaby and get loads of sleep. xx

    Hi everyone,

    I'm brand new to MSE but this challenge looks great! Please put me down for £10 :)

    Any good advice for a newbie on how to get started? Hoping to use my extra savings to help ease our wedding budget!

    hello and welcome :hello:

    we have lost our first few helpful posts, so I will copy and paste over for you.

    Do you have a smartphone or tablet? Do you have things you can sell? old cds/dvds/clothes/toys/books.

    Hi everyone,

    If you're new to the challenge don't be scared - here's how it works:

    The aim of this challenge is to make £10 extra a day everyday for the month. A lot of people think this is impossible but it can and has been done, over and over. If you feel £10 is too much why not start at £5 or if you're brave join those who aim for £20 a day! Anything extra you make is great so set whatever target you think you can manage.

    It also doesn't have to be £10 each and every day - some days you make more and some days you make less, but aim for £300 extra at the end of the month.

    The idea is that everyone posts how they are making extra money and these shared ideas help all of us to learn new ways to help cut debt or earn/save money.

    What cannot be added:
    Wages from your main job

    What can be added:
    Overtime
    Income from a second job
    Daily clicks
    Interest
    Vouchers
    Mystery shopping
    And much, much more.

    This board moves pretty quickly, so be sure to subscribe and read it regularly. Below are some ideas to get you started and a great place to read when you're in need of inspiration.

    Not sure if I misunderstood about the wedding dresses but you made it sound like you have been married more than a couple of times or you have an obsession with wedding dresses. :D
