    Well done, you're almost at your target. I feel like I'm on a personal mission to beat you, as we're both quite similar, but you're just ahead of me....lol

    The MB ££ are from that website, for free spins you don't need it. Most casino/betting websites have a daily free game/reward. Some are really bad, some are better. I think I have about 15 websites I visit daily and I get a few pence here and there. It adds up slowly.

  • Just £1.13 from CCs. Got a couple of other sites I cashed out on today, but they take a day or 2 to reach PP, so won't count them till they arrive. Also got some waiting to be approved in P/fc .

    £10.95 from MB. The offers are drying up, I have a couple more free bets and I'll stop after that.


    Total £152.23 / £155

    My coop switch is completing tomorrow, so hopefully I'll have £125 to add on Tuesday. I think that's all for the month unless I get more sales on vinted, I have lots listed but they've been there for a while.

    Hello everyone and thank you @CMD79 for your kind words. 

    Thanks for on-going inspiration.

    This is my monthly total so far:

    £3.20 bank interest 

    £3.55 in small coins 

    30p more coins 

    £34.98 eBay sales 

    £70.45 eBay sales 

    £6.40 loose change 

    £63.69 eBay sales 

    £1.04 Curious Cat 

    £1 Curious Cat 

    £1.38 Curious Cat 

    £1.17 Curious Cat

    £107 train refund 

    £50 present 

    £4.48 Boots points, opened advantage card 

    21p Nectar points, opened Nectar card account 

    £2.48 pay out from Top Cashback 

    £1.21 curious cat

    £1.98 eBay sales (pre fees)

    £1.09 Curious Cat

    Value of totally refunded meal: £46

    Value of free night on hotels.com £104.25


    Total so far: £506.06


    I had a meal with my daughter yesterday that should have cost £46 but I got the manager to agree I didn’t have to pay anything. I was very polite about it 😀 I’ve added this. I don’t think I’m going to be finding more change lying around anytime soon, a relative has randomly paid £50 into my account, I really need to thank them - my Christmas present I reckon. Thank you for mentioning Curious Cat, I’m also now signed up for Prolific and back on it at YouGov. I’m finding that I’m keeping track of what I’m spending and saving too, inspired by boosting income. I fought back over some time, to be debt free some years ago now and appreciate how much keeping an eye on this stuff really helps. I cancelled subscriptions/memberships coming out of my bank as well. I’m chasing 3 more refunds. 

    I’m a member at hotels.com and got a free night, which happens when you’ve booked 10 nights within I think 12 months but they extended it because of Covid so it has been more like 10 nights over 3 years…I often book for work so this is a bonus I very much appreciate and am including in these calculations. Might use cinema tickets from Lloyds bank as a freebie when me and my partner have this booked free night in Gloucester.

    Good luck all.
