    Amy, what's slice the pie?

    Hi

    Its a site that you can listen to new bands and get paid to do so.

    There is a complete topic here: http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=684405

    Also some FAQ at the top of the "Up your income" board.

    I made £10 odd in about 1 1/2 weeks. Its better than a poke in the eye with a stick! :rotfl:

    Well, got paid and made some payments. Still think I might be able to manage a bit more this month but we'll see how it goes. Sold a couple of textbooks on Amazon too so will update again when the money is in my account.

    For now I'm happy to be under £19,000 and to know I've paid off over £1000 since I started this challenge :D

    Yeay finally been paid! Have made a fair few payments over the last 2 days which has made a bit of a dent in it. My total so far is £1041.31 - I am still a little below target but Im not complaining - Good to see everyone else is doing well.

    Ooh, lucky everyone that gets paid at the end of the month! But I won't be complaining when I get money on the 15th when everyone else is skint I suppose! Wouldn't it be nice to get paid weekly, but still get your monthly salary amount?!

    OK,
    we are finally back in the UK, so I'm going to be going hard at it to suceed at this challenge.
    I've updated my sig and its made up of normal payment from DH's salary and my water and council tax payments that haven't gone out.

    I have to pay off £17868 by the 25th September.
    I've worked out that I will have £10000 from DH's wages by then, but I need to find an extra £7868 from somewhere.
    I think I will be looking for some sort of job as well as ebay etc.

    I had a couple of loan payments made today, so that is another £600 + paid off today, so nicely over the £3000 mark so far :j

    I am hoping to bring this up to £4000 by the end of February.....will require a bit of effort, and a lot of bingo!!

    I hope everyone has a good weekend!

  • I am still waiting for all my payments to go through but am itching to update my signature so that I can see those numbers fall.

    Am having a 'big holiday' vs make this challenge dilemma, challenge is winning for now - mu budget allows for holidays but probably not as big as I am dilmma-ing over. Also I need to crack on with Ebay or I will soon find myself well short of this challenge.

    Well have been busy mystery shopping today, not made much, but better than nothing, now just busy writing reports in between my daily clicks and filling in surveys. Hope everyone is having a good day.

    I have paid my credit card minimum payments (0% credit cards) so my total has increased and i also got some money from the books i sold on Amazon.
