today I have done / will do the following:
- spent time surfing the internet for mystery shopper/consumer testing sites.
- Have joined a consumer testing site and earnt nearly 10,000 points doing 2 hours worth of surveys!
- Posted 24 parcels of items sold on ebay (that meant spending money though :eek: !) However, went nowhere near the supermarket next door to buy lunch - a very bad debt-inducing habit of mine

- will log onto ebay about 7pm to see how well my other stuff sells.
- will log onto amazon to investigate how to sell books, advice obtained on ebay and bootselling forum very helpful!
- Write a letter to my bank to cancel loan protection payments (adding a total of £259.00 to my repayments by having protection).
- Surf the freebie sites.
- Read through the forums to get encouraged and inspired!
- Think about starting an online debt diary to get myself focused.
:eek: Total debt £21,000 :eek:Weight loss to date - 2 st, 2lb:j0 -
Have had a quick look on Qiudco, but unable to find "click thru" sites that peeps here talk about. Would some kindly soul turn me round & point me in the right direction (sorry for being a thicko)0

Starting very early this morning (couldn't sleep - not sure why) I've registered with Quidco which I hadn't heard of till 5 days ago. Within 12 hours, I've made £3.75! Checked my Valued Opinions and I'm at £9.00
Also, put all my loose change into the piggybank to tie in with the £75 by Xmas challenge;
Bought loads of veg to make some cheap lunches and dinners for next week - got a large hot flask from one of Aldi's offers last week. It's like a Thermos but you can put it straight into the microwave to heat things up and it's been a godsend for my packed lunches;Almost debt-free, but certainly even with the Banks!0 -
