I have been a bit quiet on here this week. Been joining a few survey sites and selling some things on Ebay. Most are due to end this weekend so will add once they have completed.
I have added £1 to my challenge figure as I had this off my coop shop plus 0.05 from Monese sign up, it was £5 free but had to spend £4.95 for the debit card. Once I have spent £500 on the debit card I will get another £15 so will add that once complete. I do have some referal codes if anyone would like one, we both get £30, £10 after your first transaction and £20 when £500 has been spent. Also got £25 bonus for signing up to InvestEngine. Also managed to get £22.63 by doing a little bit of matched betting.
Now have a total of £133.79/310. Really hoping my eBay sales go well this weekend to bump my total up.
Have a great weekend everyone.Make £10 a day challenge - January 2023 = £292.89/£310 - Feb 2023 = £677.09/280 - March 2023 = £102.45/£310 - April = £300.12/300 - May 2023 = £306.80/£310 - June = £245.88/£150 - July = £295.45/£310 - August 2023 £51.56/£3102 -

Just checking in to say I am still around, just nothing to report at the moment. I have a nearly £10 pending in Prolific but it's not quite ready.
Well done on everyone still going.3 -
Thank you @CMD79 for the helpful comments. I'm waiting for a switching one to come up that isn't first direct as not eligible there. I'm keeping an eye out for new deals. The supermarket shopping and first time deals is a fab idea. I'm going to look into that.
Thanks everyone for the survey tips. I'll follow up. I do a few professional ones that sometimes pay well, but often get kicked out of them part way through but some more regular ones sound fab.
Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became
In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!1 -
I got sucked into some free spin thing through Swagbucks and I did something very not money saving and wagered £10 to receive like 270 free spins. I've never done anything like this before (it must have been the 2 glasses of wine I'd had).
I instantly regretted it as I didn't have a clue what I was doing but I got my £10 back plus another £16.70. I cashed it straight out and won't be going back on there.
I'll add the money when it's back in my account and the Swagbucks when they are done pending.Total debt when my journey began in December 2022- £66,133.42
