    Have a lovely Christmas Adeley!
    Things can get hectic around this time, good idea to slow down, enjoy ❤

    I'll still be here, got in the habit of checking new posts over coffee ☕️ 

    Have a great day everyone!

    Hi everyone,

    I'm sorry I haven't been joining in. Ive been in a bit of a black hole.

    Great to see you all doing so well! Sorry the sales didn't go so well @jokono

    A belated welcome to @MrsCautious and sorry for your loss. But also well done on making a load of extra money!

    Adding:

    £30.50 from a mystery shop
    £122.20 interest refund from Barlaycard
    £64.96 from Prolific and Ebay sales

    Meery Christmas @Deleted_User and anyone else not logging in before the big man himself arrives!

  • £107.40 refund from train company after the most dreadful train journey. I realised I’d mistakenly applied for the return part of the journey which I’ve not taken yet, but they’ve paid me back for that as well. As I’ve had to make other arrangements due to train strikes, that’s a little bit of stress avoided as I was thinking they’ll be inundated with claims - but it turns out it has taken less than a week for the first part of the refund and the other bit has been authorised in advance.

    Well done! That's brilliant - and to think we were not sure how December would go at all, but I've had some big ones from Prolific this month :smile:MrsCautious said:

    I would say that's a result, but you probably just wanted to get somewhere!

    £6.50 from prolific, it's been quite for about a week but then yesterday had a flury of studies. And another £5 or so from MB.

    Total £122.19 / £155

    03.07.2023 - CC (0%) £9,859 / Loan £0 / Savings £10,110
  • @CMD79, thanks. I am very pleased I have to admit. I suspect it will start to slow down after this week though, as universities break up for Christmas, as a lot of the studies on P/fc come from unis.
