Ooooh I have just cashed out my second £1 of the month on instagc. Considering this one has took me 8 days compared with the almost year for my last one.......I'm hoping I am getting to grips with this site as I think there is money to be made. Think I need to do at least one survey a day though to make it even better.Make £10 a Day Feb .....£75.... March... £65......April...£90.....May £20.....June £35.......July £600

I feel like I have lots of irons in the fire right now. Have listed a few more things on the bay and then also started a little bit of matched betting again on the side as I realised I am going to need every bit of help I can get in order to make enough to do my house projects next year. Still concentrating on sales though as the number one activity and doing anything else on the side. I have about 50 items on the bay right now..
OK.. so from the last couple of days:
eBay sale £1.71 after fees
Circle win (thanks to cufc_mike) £1.56
Matched betting £7.48
Valued opinion - vouchers £45
So, although this was all good in the money making category, I realised today that I am slipping back into my old ways where I try to do everything and forget to look after myself. I don't think I have a dial.. I am all or nothing!
Anyway.. had a bit of a realisation whilst I was rocking the baby to sleep and stressing about various things. I concluded they just didn't really matter that much compared to baby and if I was stressed about it I needed to do less.
SO... going back to just doing eBay stuff to get rid of what I have this month. Any extra time I am sitting around not doing much I will do surveys etc. Going to concentrate on what is important instead. I am even trying to unsubscribe from a few things to reduce the emails I receive everyday and decided to simplify my finances a bit as life is too short to make things complicated for yourself and not spend time with loved ones. If that means I make a bit less and therefore buy less then so be it!2025 decluttering: 3,819🌟🥉🌟💐🏅🏅🌟🥈🏅🌟🏅💐💎🌟🏅🏆🌟🏅

Apart from £7 from postal survey I've nothing else to report since I was here last:(
Lots of serious RL issues to sort out this next few weeks so money making is going to have to take a back seat. Not enough hours in the day and to be honest I can't be bothered to make the effort for a few pence here and there at the moment. I know that goes against my mantra of 'every little helps' but that's how it is just now:o.
I'm switching my MSE notifications off as my inbox is always full of them but I'll try to drop in from time to time and read how you're all getting on. I expect you'll do brilliantly as always:A
I'll see you when I see you xxx
Hope all goes well for you CBC, glad you're home safe and sound. Will miss your cheery chat and advice but RL does go on and look after yourself in the meantime.:A

Mixed weekend for me money wise. Had a poor day yesterday, so much so that I didn't even bother coming on to report. That said, had a great day today to make up for it.
£44.89 from matched betting
£0.20 from citizen me
£45.09 total :j0 -
I'm also a bit late to the party, but would like to join in. I will start with £1 a day! I have made a tiny £1.99 from eBay this week!0

Soo sorry you have problems and hope you soon manage to resolve them satisfactorily. It goes without saying that obviously you must put you and yours first, but don't push yourself too hard and try to have some 'me-time' on the way.
I certainly shall miss your posts and lovely chats. If I can help in any way, even just a friendly ear, please feel free to PM me anytime.
Truly hope you soon feel able to re-join us.

Sounds like a good plan xx
I'm sure what you say will resonate with a few of us!
I had to knock doing surveys on the head, just not enough time -- selling stuff to get rid of clutter and a few other bits will have to be enough.
Good luck and I hope you get to look after you lots more xx0 -
A little £8.80 from me today taking my total so far to £28.55 - must try harder!0
