    I've been trying to get ahead, I'm working away for 6 days this week so won't have much opportunity to earn unless Prolific is good to me

  • Sorry I've been really bad at posting - I'll go for £5 per day this month please.

    Currently at £46.26 this month.  This is mostly Prolific but I've also started with eBay and made £13 on a sale.  Pretty good but can also be quite a stress.  Sold something for a friend today on Gumtree - took 3 hours from listing to getting the cash in hand and no fees - so much easier!  Though of course it may not always be the case.

    Week 6 - £56.26/£70
    Feb - £223.43/£280
    2026 - £520.96/£3650
  • Also trying to figure whether it would be worth changing energy providers now that there are getting to be more offers.  So complicated to figure it all out though, definitely a brain challenge :)
