    Ah thats good LMD, I thought it strange that you were having to wait to receive the cashouts?  I agree Prolific have been great today with some good paying surveys, Ive completed £8.20 worth.  Long may they continue!

  • I’ve been able to do an instant cash out on Prolific this afternoon as my previous one cleared to PayPal so I’ve just sent £10 to CC7 🙌

    Good morning everyone, it's midweek and I have an aaaalllllll day meeting ahead of me. Not great, but it means today will be a NSD for me :)

    Pleased with the progress on CC7 from the Prolific studies, if I carry on that this rate i will be able to get below £7k mark before pay day which is still 14 days away (yes, I am counting!) 

    Accounts are looking OK, enough to cover bills and some spare for the end of the month (hidden in my EF at the moment) it's me that's feeling a bit 'meh' at the moment due to it being too hot to get some proper sleep. 

    £1 sent to CC7 this morning, and £28 DD left the account. I don't seem to have put much in my sealed pot for a while so need to scout the house for lost change! I do have an SPC standing order going to it over the next few days for £18 so if I can't find change it will have to wait. 

    I had a survey to do from Y live yesterday for £3, they don't pay until you reach £50 but when I checked my account yesterday it's actually at £39 so only £11 to go! All these little things really add up so I'm just chipping away and doing what I can each day. 

    Have a great day guys, and don't forget the SPF!

  • Morning everyone! We are over the hump of the week and as the temperature cooled last night I have actually had a good night's kip! 

    Made £1 PAD to CC7 and also sent £1 to EE this morning. I am going to try and pay some extra money to EE as I would like to get out of my contract and move to another provider on a SIM only deal... to leave at the moment is almost £500 so it's a bit much all at once. 

    I have just checked Prolific and been able to cash out £6.14 so I will send another £5 to CC7 and £1.14 to the sealed pot. I also still have £8+ pending so it's looking good for clearing that £7k barrier before pay day :)   Going to see how many surveys I can do today, but I have found that there are loads which don't work on Safari so I can't take part in those.

    Today is another NSD for me, I am not going anywhere and have all I need in stores for meals etc. This is number 11 for July so I'm hopeful to reach the target well ahead of schedule. 

    Not much else going on, but feeling quite positive today :)  Have a great day guys

    That £7k mark is closing in fast now.  :)
  • So, having missed out on 2 high paying studies this morning… in order to try and complete more on Prolific I have downloaded Chrome to my MacBook. I’ve still managed to do 5 throughout the day which is good 😊 

    Just hope the download doesn’t slow my laptop down. I don’t think it should but I’m not a techie.

    Eeeek that 7k is soooooo close for you!!! How exciting! I was so focused on paying as much off as I could that I completely forgot to celebrate getting under it! 😂

    Your prolific payouts are so impressive as are your NSD’s! Keep it up and you’ll be debt free before your goal date!! X
