  • It always cheers me up to read of everyone's different ways of making a bit (often a lot:T) of extra money. Well done everyone:beer:


    I'm feeling really chuffed with myself this morning as I've just received £85 in my bank account from an online focus group I did recently:j. The best bit was that the fee was £35 but the client awarded a 'prize' of an extra £50 to the participant who submitted the most 'thoughtful' and detailed answers.


    I tried my best to write something useful and 'different' each time which wasn't easy with so many questions and things to evaluate which were pretty 'samey':(. Plus, I tried to say a lot in a succinct way (and as you'll all know that's not easy for me:o:rotfl:).


    Upshot was I won the 'prize':dance:. I'm embarrassingly easily pleased:o


    Lovely sunny morning here. Have a great day everyone:beer:

    As some of the regs may remember.........the last time I went to Superdrug for my olay moisturiser......I was so excited to get a good deal with a buy one get one free and then lost one on the way home.
    Was gutted.

    Anyway........nipped to Superdrug today to see if it was on offer again as Im nearly at the bottom of pot and happy to report it was on buy one get one free again with an added bonus of £1.50 off due to it being treat Thursday on skincare products.

    Didnt even know they did this as Im not very often in there so my two moisturisers gave me a £16.56 discount! Going to add this to my monthly savings though I usually only add hard cash. :D

    Gorgeous day out there as well!

    Firstly, WOOOOOOOHOOOOOOO Aesop :j:j:j:j:j that's an awesome result! So happy for you!!! What joy you'll have using it to pay off some other horrible debt! Just think of the interest saved :money:

    And yes KM, I do remember the missing moisturiser :D I was gutted for you that day and kept hoping it would show up somewhere. Boo, but yay that you got lots more today for not a lot of money!

    So we're 5 days in and I don't have a lot to report. I'm biding my time. But what I do have to report makes me happy....my £19.47 that's in my signature is all interest from cleverly using current accounts to my advantage! It took a bit of setting up but this is the first month I've done it and there should be more to come before the end of the month. Yay to free money!!!
