I’d misread your previous comment - thought you’d earned £100 just from prolific! That would be impressive! Nonetheless, great totals this month. Great going with Streetbees!Mortgage free 16/06/2023! £132,500 cleared in 11 years, 3 months and 7 days

Thanks all 😀 £75 sounds like a lot DFOD 😮! I was only getting £130-ish when I wasn't working and spending hours and hours on it, now it's all I can do to check Prolific and do a couple of Streetbees in the adverts! Although I did manage almost £100 that way this month....🤔🤔🤔Mortgage start: £65,495 (March 2016)

I’m with DFOD - £75 should be doable, especially with all the expected TV viewing in December (assuming Street Bees want to know about festive stuff!).Mortgage free 16/06/2023! £132,500 cleared in 11 years, 3 months and 7 days
