Good to hear from you.
Dont worry about not posting money things,
just pop in now & then to let us know how things are xx

I will Lou. I like posting about my earnings and stuff, but don't think I do well when I set myself goals at the moment. Better off just doing what I can when I can, which seems to be working for now.

Hi everyone

Been a bit busy the past few days. Went to the hospital on Thursday, but just for a quick blood test for the Orkambi medication I'm on. Have to check that my kidneys are functioning okay before they'll authorise my next 3 month supply (they are fine BTW). Then I took my mum to the physio for her shoulder.

Spent yesterday driving to pick up something OH bought in Surrey and then we went out in the evening for a meal and drinks with friends (40% off voucher). At my mum's today with my niece and nephew

I've now had my £10 M&S voucher from My Survey, am waiting for £5 M&S and £10 Mastercard from Swagbucks and waiting for £10 cash from Panelbase. I'm nearly there on Onepoll (£22.50) and have done some more Textbroker articles (will claim a payment on Thursday) and am still at £8.69 on Prolific (30p pending).

Hello Emz,


Good to hear you're doing ok and no issues with your kidneys. Your online earnings are looking very healthy.

Hi everyone

So it's February and I really need to start plugging away at the extra earnings this month. They're stopping my SSP, so I will only be bringing in my PIP payment each month now (£342). I'll talk to my social worker when I'm in hospital next week, but she didn't think there was anything I could apply for last time I asked as my OH earns too much. I've got about 3 weeks SSP due to me this month and I've got two weeks paid holiday, which I'll get in March, but from April onwards - it's nada!!!

I'm going to see how much I can bring in this month. Will be hindered by being in hospital next week (although they've got WiFi!!) and two weeks of IVs, but I'm determined to earn a fair few hundred. It's about getting a few freebies too. Anything to help with feeding me and OH and getting cheap food. I want to get into a routine of looking for reduced items in the local shops each evening. I can also still use my staff discount, so can get cheaper food in M&S.

So today has been a good start:

• I'm just 10p - 10p!!!! - away from £25 on Onepoll. I've been refreshing like mad all afternoon trying to bag another survey!!
• Nearly reached second target on Swagbucks (just a few more to go - will watch some videos later)
• Have done £3.67 worth of surveys on Prolific and they've already been approved
• Am in the middle of a monster article on Textbroker that I've been working on here and there during the day. It should fetch me at least £17. Will aim to get it finished tonight.
• I saw someone mention the Jisp app on Twitter and if you download it and complete their checklist, you get to claim a £5 voucher. I have requested a £5 M&S voucher.
• Have been accepted for a project with the Royal Mail surveys towards the end of February and I'll get a £5 Love 2 Shop voucher for completing it.

So nothing through yet, but lots in the pipeline

Well done on what you've achieved, hope you get that last survey soon!

I agree with beanie, remember to look after yourself too x
