Make £10 a day Challenge - February 2016

BritishBibliophile

Quidco pay out super fast when you get to that point! February has started with £44.25 which I requested as an Amazon gift card last night so I can keep it in the furniture fund, code arrived in my inbox 24 hours later!

Going to keep my eye on a 5-piece non-stick saucepan set to start with

You're so sweet, Siouxsie and Aesop:T:A

You've twisted my arm, although I always intended to drop in whenever I can to see what you've all been up to anyway. I'll just go for £5 a day and if I don't make it I won't feel too bad;). I'll definitely have no time for any table top sales this month even if I could find any.

Don't leave us CBC! :beer:

Just got £269 from my family. When my macbook broke before xmas we came up with a temp solution between us that I'd buy a laptop to use for the time and they would then buy that off of me (as my nan wanted a laptop of her own anyway). Well, it took the best part of 6 weeks, but today they gave me that money.

£60.86 of it is going straight to my EF to cover having to buy a charger the other day. I'll see about clearing what's left on the CCs from xmas (probably not more than £150 all-in across the 3 of them) and then divide the rest accordingly.

£270 / 290 :j

having a good old gander at January's thread and have joined pinecone and will join some more tonight/tomorrow. A current eeebay listing stands at 0.99p and i'll add a couole more bits tomorrow. Not been feeling too well today so motivation has been low, fingers crossed for a better saving day tomorrow x

you've made a good start and there are a few of us on this thread, who know how you feel with motivation. It can be hard to post and log in or to list on ebay etc when not feeling too good.

Do little and often if you can, that helps. Rather than trying to do everything in one go.

I love the saying, how do you eat an elephant? in small pieces at a time. ok not so much the eating an elephant but doing things in smaller pieces so it is not so overwhelming

Thank you for the warm welcome!


Off to a good start so far, have just sold 3 things on Ebay and all buyers have paid already, have worked out after fees and P&P am over £30 up already.


Feeling motivated, I have just listed 2 more larger items that I have been putting off doing and already have 1 watcher!


£1 survey on Prolific just completed. Off to search out some more!

another brilliant start to February! :T :beer:

Right. Done. £20 to capital one, £75 to aqua, and £40 to vanquis.

£45 in my rallycross fund to bring it to £300, extra £28.14 in the emergency fund.

I'm not sure whether to do the challenge this month, there's too much real-life angst going on with me at the moment. Obviously I'll still be trying to make money (it's second nature now and a need rather than a want;)) but it might be very sporadic.

Have a great month, everyone:beer:

Sorry to hear that CBC and hope things soon sorted for you.


Please stay in touch as we will all miss you on here and I'm sending some hugs for you

Hiya everyone and a warm welcome to the new peoples :hello:


Well I'm just about back in the land of the living - though I've a thumping headache, which seems to keep coming and going. Wish it would make it's mind up to vanish


Those of you that were around in the week betwixt Xmas and the NY might remember the debacle I had with online deliveries, charges and refunds with Mr T. I sat down today with my CC statements and receipts and worked out that it finished up with me £4.90 to the better - think I'll just pocket it for all the hassle. So will count that today for Feb


My VO vouchers arrived today, but they were counted already, so hope to head to B**ts this week.


Made 80p on surveys today :j


Hope you all have a super Tuesday
