    £9.62 today:

    11p nectar points 
    nectar voucher (counting it now 😃)
    £1.06 CC 
    £3.95 eBay 

    Tiny bit over £400 and inching towards my target of £465, depends on whether buyers like the look of my stuff on eBay these last days of the month, it’s a mixed bag for sure. 
  • £6.91 today taking me up to £94.98/£155. Hopefully things will pick up and I'll get there.

    £10.45 today, including from 

    £1.03 CC
    60p in change from tidying up and really hunting. 
    £5.56 Prolific payout. (Got £12 still in there, fingers crossed it’s paid by end of month.) 

    still to come I’m hoping for:

    Another  £10 before end of month from CC and Prolific. 
    A couple of quid from Cash for Clothes if I ever get there. 
    £7 payout due tomorrow for a mystery shop
    £10+ from EBay 


    That would bring me a tiny bit over my target of £465, £15 a day for January. I was going to add a few more things to eBay tonight but they can wait now I hope my target is in reach. 

    I’m at £428.28

    £16 as ebay sale paid out so £258.90/£310
    hopefully a Facebook sale will bring cash today ..
    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 !!
  • A few ebay sales totalling £69.76 and Round up of £9.65 transferred.  Hoping to get a few matched bets in over the weekend and will check my Quidco and Top Cashback accounts.  Total of £213.20/310
    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/£310

    £29.92 today taking me to £458.20, so I’m under £10 to go to target, it’s been a slog! 

    This comes from 

    eBay sales paid for after fees 
    mystery shopping payment of £7, not got any more booked as I had 3 for this week but they were all taken away due to a mistake by the company. (They would have been £45 but looked ridiculously complicated.) 
    £5.68 payout from Prolific that came through really late at night, 13p Cashback and £1.11 from Curious Cat. 
    I have some interest in eBay items ending on Sunday so they should take me over target. 
    I was going to rush more through this month but they can wait now. 
    I’m not setting my target this high again, maybe £5 a day in February 😬

  • At last £11.81 to add to my total from a mixture of Prolific and a tint bit of Quidco Cashback 
    Total debt when my journey began in December 2022- £66,133.42
    Current debt May 2024- £40,064.57
    Repaid 39.42%

  • Just £2.07 today from Qm/e. P/fc still being very slow and what is in there is not approved yet. Got some things to sell still and a few more "irons in the fire " as they say, so fingers crossed it improves before the end of the month.
