    Still fairly slow for me, had £15 paid directly into my bank for the MSE energy switch - I did think it was £30 but never mind.

    Unless one of my BIN items get a bid on ebay, I do think I am done for the month. Not far off my target, and still better then nothing.

    Looking forwad to starting the new month, will begin to list all my summer items on ebay - although with how the weather has been lately, I may leave it a while longer.

    Well done to all the money making!

    Scrap that, just got an email from McDonlds reminding me to claim my £5 Monopoly win

    I had a huge pile of the codes given to me by friends and family, I sat there for close on to 25 minutes entering all these codes, and finally had a £5 win. Went to enter my details and the computer crashed :mad: tried entering the code again and it said it was not valid.

    Roll on to today, I get an email asking me to claim my win :T super chuffed with that as I thought it was lost forever. So another £5 to add for the month.

    I was just thinking I'd not made any money today, then I got a text for a free £3 trial of a new game on Pocketwin. I won £34! Very pleased with that and can now just about make our income and outgoings balance until the end of May. (Famous last words.....)

    £2.50 survey and that is it in payable amounts!

    Have been sorting out items for eBay and have made a decision that anything that is listed and not sold by 8th May is going to charity. I can't stand the hassle any longer!

    Another £2.50 from amazon - every little helps. Next month is looking to be quite promising though.

    :j :cry: and :grouphug: to all of the above messages!! Great money making stories...especially the McD codes - awesome idea Becks!!

    Wessex, did you get the prepaid card sorted yet? You'd think a prepaid card should work in any country if the funds had been loaded properly. Shame you have to spend time and energy sorting it!

    Sorry you're having a rough time shariann. the dodgy hug is just for you :rotfl:

    I followed your advice re my water meter Aesop and they did a remote meter reading so I got my bill in today. Due next month it's about £40 over what I had budgeted, but as it's my first flat with a water bill I had to guestimate how much to put away. Still, it's payday between now and the bill payment day so I'll make sure the extra money's set aside.

    Not long to go til the end of the month and I still have a few pennies trickling in. Today saw £8.43 from Topcashback plus an online bingo win (I've not turned into a recreational bingo player, I just used an online offer and made a few pounds).

    Uh, I don't think I have anything else to report. I'm patiently waiting for the banks to update at half past midnight so I can do my monthly payday money shuffle :money:
