    I plan to carry on, should definitely hit £2023 in August when the interest hits my savings account in August. 
    In the meantime I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for the Premium bond draws.

    Thank you for the recommendations on alternative survey sites, it seems to be okay £3.40 today so will update this months figures later as I was a day ahead. 

    I will look into setting up another surveys account

    My lowest month so far, only did 1 mystery shop in comparison to the usual 4 or 5 and didn't push the surveys.

    But still probably over £200 more than I would have got in any month last year.

    Shamefully too busy to do any surveys this month.
    With a combination of Ebay and Vinted sales and and interest we've made a grand total of £249.03 in May
    Grand total so far: 790.32 + 249.03 = £1039.35 so far this year so it feels great to have got to 4 figures just before half way!
