£10 a day challenge - December

Options
:j I'm too impatient to wait for one of the grown ups to start this thread so I'm doing it NOW because I'm excited!:rotfl:

December might seem like a bad time for making extra cash - but now is when it comes in handiest, probably other people won't be going for the mystery shopping jobs etc as it’s too near Christmas, and also there are bound to be tons of unwanted Secret Santa gifts just begging to be ebayed. :santa2:

So, if you’re up for it, let’s give it a try….

I’ve already booked 2 mystery shops and a promotions job for the beginning of the month so that’s £55 as long as I don’t screw them up!:T

Who’s next?

    Just booked myself a promotions job for the weekend, after tax it's only 45 quid but I would only have wasted the day in bed so it's better than nothing :p

    Ok.. .sign me up :D I'll have a go.

    I keep spending on Amazon and Ebay so I'll try it the other way around.
    I just sold a digital camera for £58 - always notice things after!!!
    I've listed books on Amazon but they are not very good so I can't see them selling and they are for pennies!!

    This isn't just online is it?

    Can I ask BigEars what type of promotions job - is it through an agency?

    good luck everyone.
    :D

    I would just like to point out at the start that this idea was pinched wholesale from BatGirl, who ran this competition for the last few months, and I didn’t realise it was her idea so all credit to BatGirl for this one!

    Anyway, hope you’re all well and looking forward to this challenge.
    Wiggynut, yes it was through an agency, there’s a whole thread on promotions work over on the Upping Your Income board. It’s the first one I’ve done in ages so will let you know how it goes!
