    Well thats 2p more than me today though I have had a good day on bounts with my best points yet. 120 to add and should have enough tomorrow or next day to claim next voucher.

    Went to garden centre today to spend my voucher I got yesterday.

    I used to work in the restaurant there and the lad on the till seemed to think I still did so applied my 25% discount saving me another £2.75 on what I had bought.

    I escaped quickly out the door. :rotfl:


    Can I ask how you manage to get so many points on Bounts? That is a great figure! I do my 7000 steps each day and get 5 points - but that's it.

    Becks, I signed up for the Premium option which cost me £15. For that, I earn 20 points for each 7000 steps, up to a maximum of 21000 steps. On days off I always walk between 14-21000 steps which earns 40-60 points. On top of that, exercising for I think 20 minutes (but maybe it's 30? Don't quote me on that...) gets me another 20 points and I check in at a gym usually 3 times a week. Plus, there are 3 opportunities to win on the Reward Wheel each time I trigger an activity or check in. So it's relatively easy to earn 100 points on an active day.

    I have had the app since 21 January and earned 2535 points. My aim is to earn a £100 John Lewis voucher by the end of the year so the initial £15 investment was well worth it for me.
    Every day I'm hustling :money:

    Hi all,
    New to this thread and have enjoyed reading everyone's efforts & success.
    I have one question. Do you add money to your daily total once you have earned it, or once it has actually been banked nice and safely?
    I.E. If you complete a survey for say £1.50 today, but don't receive the physical cash until next week, is that added to todays tally, or only once banked, next week? :)

    Hey there

    Off the mark with £5 Halifax reward. Have had text from mfortune to say my withdrawal from last month has been approved so should get that by Monday too.

    Well done on the job offer Aesop. Even if you decide not to take it, it's always nice to feel you were their first choice! Could you ask a friend to take your son to school maybe? I had to do this for a while when I started work at my current place ( different job) and I actually dropped one of my sons off with a friend as she was walking her boys to school. He was older though - about 10 I think which made it easier. Hope it all works out and the job at school comes up for you. Working with young children can be very difficult. I was lucky to get a term time only job 9.30 - 2.30 when boys started school and then took a job in my daughters secondary school when she was in year 7 and the boys were in year 5. Having school holidays off was a godsend especially as I had 3 children and my boys didn't cope well with holiday clubs! 10 years on and I'm still working at the school and still really like having school holidays off - even though I don't really need them now.

    Sorry for the verbal diarrhoea

    Welcome nicky :j
    I add mine once money added to my account. Surveys often get paid once you reach a certain threshold so it would get confusing.

    Becks: re bounts.........like others, I upgraded to the premium+ as I know I will earn enough throughout the year to more than make it worth my while.
    I am going for National garden centre vouchers which are 909 points for £5 whereas a lot of the other ones need 1339 (I think)

    On a basic day I earn 60 but put a bit of effort in as I did yesterday and many more can be earnt.

    Its twenty mins for an activity which can be walking and gets your steps in as well. :D

    Morning Everyone :)

    I need to give myself a kick....while i am working on a few main things right now to build up future income i need to get back to doing some surveys and sales to have some now income as well.

    Its the thought of listing on evilbay that is holding me back i think so i just need to bite the bullet and get it done. I only have 20 free listings on there so going to work on getting them filled.

    Also have done a couple of surveys on one poll taking my balance to £25.35 on there. I am going to keep working on this daily until i get to my next claim :)
