eBay sales
Prolific and Curious Cat surveys
One fast-food mystery shop.
Cashback
Hunting high and low for ‘roadkill’ at home, including an old fiver and £11 in old £1 coins
Bank interestI’m terms of freebies, I’ve enjoyed keeping a list (yes really🤣🤦🏻♀️) but haven’t added a value to this total or anything, but these include:
Various classic M&S clothes from my mum, which I’ve either very enthusiastically started to wear, or put on eBay.
Various chocolate bars, snacks, little treats that have been sent my way with lovely people I work for or with.Will continue in a similar way in February, should get a good boost with FD switch fee as that will be due.
Thanks and good luck to all.2 -
