    Has anyone tried pollpass? It!!!8217;s a survey site which I got an email about and it works like a messaging app. I cashed out after a couple of days and didn!!!8217;t spend long on it. There doesn!!!8217;t seem to be a referral scheme but I would definitely recommend it

    I'm with same bank, it's very frustrating, knowing I don't know how much is in there.

    I started doing pollpass. I cashed out other day for paypal, very quick.

    I meant to come on and post here but as you know real life gets in the way a lot.


    pollpass can be done on pc, everyone. I shortcutted it on my phone so I can do when I have a few spare minutes, as I don't get my laptop out everyday.

    all of it has of course gone now! paid to credit cards etc and I have started saving 10% of each money coming in, in an ISA... I have almost £30 in there now :j

    hope you all have a great weekend. AND lots of sunshine.

    that's so inspirational - I want to put money in an ISA as I want to start doing investments, but every single bit of spare cash gets eaten up by something new!

    I said to a parent the other day, it seems all we ever do is pay out for our kid's activities. And they aren't cheap. In my day, we never had any money and there were no activities!

    We played out if weather was nice, on our bikes, in the park, anywhere, anything free.

    It's a marathon not a sprint and over a year results usually even themselves out:j

    love this, love CBC, she is such a cheerleader and always knows the right things to say.

    Congrats everyone on the money making.

    I have sold a few things on ebay and have now had my first sale on etsy! So happy to have got the ball rolling. Won't add it to my total until the money's in my account. I've also sold several things to friends and am waiting on payment for that to, so hopefully by the end of the month my total will be quite a bit higher!

    well done, that's so exciting, here's to more sales on etsy. :money::beer::j:T

    I have been selling on Am@zon,
    Well done everyone with your efforts and see you again soon... I'm off to mow the garden whilst the clouds are away... And plant more seeds in my victory garden... Hoping to not buy any fruit or vegetables this summer...

    how do you sell on amazon? I don't want to sell books as return so little but there are some items that I think would sell more on amazon than ebay.

    that is fabulous about your garden. How wonderful, I cannot think of the phrase I want to use, self sufficiency? is that correct?

    I used a £1 voucher in Wilko today along with £12 Love to Shop vouchers (which I got before this challenge) as mentioned above. Shopping was £13.50 but I only paid 50p after the vouchers. A good day for me.

    my favourite kind of shop... I love using vouchers and coupons, and barely paying anything. :A

    Hi Everyone

    CBC - Good Luck for Sunday, fingers crossed that the sun brings all the buyers to your stall.

    This month feels like hard work to me too, although I could add the interest on my ISA and smash my total but it feels a bit like cheating, not much to report

    Ebay Sale - £29.99 (after fees & postage)


    Keep up the great work everyone :T


    definitely include the interest, you have put it aside and it has earnt you money, which is fantastic in this current climate.

    I spoke to the guy at work about his noisy neighbour and he said the following.

    Environmental health will ask you to talk to them first- i know you have done that.

    Keep a diary, usually for two weeks.

    Contact your landlord to see if they will help

    Apparently once they have been warned if it happens again EH will prosecute without further notice.

    Not sure how useful this is but really hope you get it sorted.

    thank you Shariann :heart:

    my landlord has no interest in anything except selling this house for money he thinks he will receive. he won't but that is for him to find out. i want to be long gone before he sells it.

    I will try keeping a diary. Its been on and off. couple of nice quiet hours then they come back and start screaming again.

    I do think the baby is ill but its worrying when she wont stop crying.

    The above 2 complaints were in part inspired by Aesop who I think I remember made a claim about a bank sending someone else's letter by mistake and an amount was due in connection with data protection?

    I called the bank to settle my bill and told them they had sent me someone else's details with my letter, which is breaking the then DPA, all change from May this year, much stricter. And they told me they would send me money as recompense. I didn't ask for it, I got told it would be sent. So it is something they already have in place, because this mistake occurs.....

    Well done on all the money made :T I think it might be wishful thinking though for a sunny weekend. Let’s hope not!

    I agree:T. I've already decided that Sunday will be a write-off for car booting round here so am not wasting a single minute gathering stuff together and cleaning it up. Decision made and I can relax now and not be forever checking the weather forecast every few hours:j
