    £67.73 so far. From rpoints, Greasypalm (my first ever payout from them!), Lightspeed, selling on Amazon and Ebay and from HSA. I've requested a cheque from Mutual points too.

    Really need to get mystery shopping figured out. Off to see if there is a matched bet possible this afternoon now. I've just listed a few bits on Ebay and swapitshop. I spend swapitshop points buying grocery vouchers, which I then count towards the challenge, as it is money I would have spent anyway.

    Anyone help me with free bingo?

    I'm about £160 up on it now.:j

    I put together a list of the sites and some instructions on what to do with it for my Olympic buddy - it's not fabulously written or anything, but if you PM me your email address then I'm happy to forward it. That goes for anyone else as well who hasn't done the free bingo thing yet - it's well worth a go but be warned that it is mind-numbingly awful!

  • So far I've made £67.72 Amazon, £71.93 Ebay, £72.42 Cashback, Interest £1.37, £1.25 found money. Minus postage spent, £33.28 = £181.41

    I doubt I can keep up this momentum but I'm so pleased with the start. I had another item finish on Ebay tonight but the buyer paid be paypal echeque so I need to wait for the money. I have to pay my ebay fees out of this also, so I'm looking at about a tenner profit.

    Done my daily clicks today, listed 6 more items on Ebay, and some old ps games on Amazon. I also have my wedding dress to sell but I'm not sure of the best way to do it. :confused: Has anyone ever sold one anywhere?

    good luck

  • Well I am here but not running - total at... £0

    Marvellous!!! However I am not disheartened, have been doing various money making things but am only counting money that hits my account for this challenge... sure soon it will all come flying in!!! Nope actually, I'm lying noticed Quidco paid me 18p earlier... hard to know why but there you go!!

    So grand total £0.18!!

    May have to try and get some MS jobs this week!!! Good luck all xxx
