    I did make a good chunk of Octopoints which I haven't applied to my energy account yet so I'm going to carry them over into 2024.  Slightly disappointed not to have got to the £1K for Prolific, I was a few quid short with some studies that weren't approved before year end. Not sure how this year will pan out, but will give it another go.

    Prolific £229.82, Octopoints £4.27, Topcashback £290.85, Tesco Clubcard challenges £60, Misc Sales £321, Airtime £10.
