    Emma its never to little to late, just think where you would be in 6 months time f you hadn't started now!!!!! Also Spice Girls tickets are going for a bomb on ebay, or sell in your local paper. I'm going to manchester but have been saving some of my mystery shopping money each week for the tickets and will now continue for the cost of gettin there. ( won't stop over will just drive home after). You really are making a difference. 3 years ago we had every dredit card maxed and both overdrafts and I remember so clearly stressing over every penny in case we got charged. One good thing about this is I will never ever get in that situation again and its a lesson i am really pleased to have learnt.

    Neil, when you start mystery shopping you need to declare within 3 months of starting and then you can apply for exemption if you are below the annual tax limit. If you are earning from another job then you will have to pay, but I know most people don't declare but thats a risk in itself.

    Still need to work out click thrus, have no myst shops at all lined up, all sites have no shops in my area :mad: so not done anything AGAIN today !!!

    Neil, welcome - I got loads of ideas from reading other people's posts too, it's brilliant isn't it! Good luck - hope you catch us up soon!

    Jo, Roxie and Lauradora, hope you have a good'un today

    I can't see me catching anyone up having started 2/3 into the month but today has got off to a steady start, if I can just clear £100 in time for a proper stab next month.....

    Day 1:

    QuidCo - £10.57
    TopCashBack - £0.28
    PigsBack - £2

    Total - £12.85

    Not bad, though I wonder where it will come from after the free QuidCo resources have been dried up. Mystery Shopping seems a ball ache but will plug away at it..........

  • Hi everyone,

    I hope its okay to join in with my own wee version of your challenge. I've been reading for days to get ideas. My personal challenge (which I can carry over to the December thread if there is one), is as follows:-

    I would like to pay off these debts on Christmas Eve - this would be the BEST Christmas present I could give myself this year:-

    £20 I owe to my daughter
    £283 I owe to a bank account
    £450 I owe to my OH

    I have made £180ish in the past few weeks on eBay, so I have set myself the challenge of raising the balance of £573. I started this personal challenge on Monday 19th November, when there were 36 days inclusive until Christmas Eve, so calculated that I would need to make £15.92 a day to hit my target.

    So far I have potentially made:-

    Quidco

    £30 applying for a Goldfish c/c (not tracked but I'm hopeful!)
    £4.80 Magazine Sub (3 issues Woman and Home for £1 - tracked)
    £20 Gala Bingo (no wins here but see how online bingo could become addictive! Not tracked yet)
    £20 Hillarys blinds (I have no intention of buying them. Not tracked yet)
    £2 Morgans Auctions (Not tracked yet)
    £3 waiting in Quidco account from ages ago (bonus!)

    Other

    £10 applying for Mobile banking - I think I need to use this for it to work, so I'll have to investigate this as I have no idea where it is on my phone now
    £9.05 Amazon sale

    Total

    £98.85 (this is a very optimistic total in the hope that everything will track, which is unlikely- however, not bad for 2 days - 34 days to go!)

    Future plans to make the sum of £15.92 a day or £111.44 a week from now until Christmas include :-

    *Listing more books on Amazon (currently in shed)
    *Listing more on eBay - anything that is not pinned down baring children and OH
    *Having a root around the charity shops for any gem items to resell on eBay (designer gear, educational textbooks etc)
    *Claim some kind of voucher with Tesco Deals to resell on eBay
    *Mystery shopping - if worthwhile - I often get asked to do shops that will cost me £5 to get there - is it worth all the hassle and time (2 hours return bus journey with pram plus time in shop and time to do questionnaire - for £5?)
    *Quidco - Paddy Power, Betfair, Lloyds home insurance + all other no deposit sign-ups from linked Quidco thread
    *Investigate more Pigsback sign-ups to up points - so slow at the moment, seems to be taking forever to make £10
    *Do all no deposit cashback bingo sites
    *Write complaint letter to Co-op, will hopefully get a voucher
    *Send of amusing photo of daughter to some mags (TAB, That's Life, Chat etc) and hopefully get £50/£100 if printed)

    Anyway - goodness knows what I'm doing up at this time when I've an early rising baby to tend to - must head to bed. I hope I'm welcome on this thread for motivation and idea sharing - I know its slightly different to what you are all doing, but I hoped you wouldn't mind.

    Thank you and good luck to you all

    Valentine x

    A vert quick update as I need to leave for placement soon and I am not even ready. Eeep.

    I have updated my signature with my current total: £249.71

    I wasn't able to get much done last night, just £1.50 from AQA and updating my clicking totals. The rest of my nights are busy until Saturday, so I am going to try and fit in some AQAing and money-making before then.

    I had to sign up for British Gas Homecare as the heating decided to break. So £40 should be tracking in Quidco soon. Fingers crossed
    I like to make money
    Best wins: £3,000 luxury holiday, holiday in Cornwall, £250 Murad Skincare hamper, angle grinder

    Another £3.38 from some unexpected Virgin Vie sales. I'm determined to complete this challenge! Everyone is doing so well :D
  • Hi guys,

    I'm a little behind (again :rolleyes:) BUT I've still earned more than I would have had I not joined this challenge so thanks again batgirl.

    Usual pigsback and quido over the last few days. Total = £127.68 (ta da!)
    Love MSE, Las Vegas and chocolate!
  • Thanks Batgirl, I'll let you know! I started by doing all the comps I found in my free supermarket magazines, but didn't know where to go from there...

    Very little today:

    £2.20 ebay sale
    5p pigsback
    36p clickthroughs

    £2.61 + £262.91 = £265.52

    I've it a slump again, but at least I'm ahead!
