Make £10 a day in June.

Options
Here is the shiny new thread for May. Get creative and lets see how we do this month.

Threads like this have ben going for a while now and really seem to motivate people. So come on everybody, this is the place to post how much money you have made each day, over and above your normal income.  This can be from selling stuff on line or at car boots etc, doing surveys, mystery shops, receipt scanning apps, bank switches, cashback, or anything else you can think of.  Do you have a side hustle? Are you crafty? Do you bake cakes? Let us know and share your tips and ideas as well.  

£10 is a nice round figure that everybody seems to like, but if you want to aim higher, that is brilliant.  Or if you think you can only manage £5 a day, or even £2.  Whatever target suits you best.  Personally I like to aim low and then I feel better if I beat it, but one day I'll branch out and go for the full £10 a day.  

In the mean time, let us know you targets and how you are doing so far. ...Welcome to previous posters and newbies.

    I am aiming for £5 a day again, so £150. But as we are away for 11 days, I have no idea if I can do it, but if you don't try, you never know.   I didn't make anything yesterday, but onward and upward now. 
    Good luck to everyone else.

    Thanks @Makingabobor2 for setting up June's challenge.  Like you I am on holiday this month only for a week so not sure I can make the target of £10 per day this month.  It is also my birthday this month.

    On top of all this I also have my final Accountancy exam this month, so may finally become qualified this year after nearly 8 years of studying ACCA while working full time.  The final few years have been self taught at home using online courses so it has been intense.  All paid for myself so would be lovely to start reaping the rewards.

    So on that note I am going to go for £5 per day this month as there may not be much time to make extra money this month.  Good luck 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/£310
