Count whatever cash you can withdraw into your bank a/c. (Well that's what I'd do). Do you have to play the £20? As sometimes youcan get away with withdrawing it........other times you may have to play it through a couple of times.

I am catching up
I've just had another £4.27 validated from Quidco which means I've now got a running total of £20.27
I've also just applied for some more mystery shops that (if I get all of them) will work out at £80!! I don't think I'll get all of them but will hopefully get at least 1.

Just done a mystery shop £10, and also sent for £10 from survey site, its amazing how compulsive this has become - need to find time for my "other life" as well!I'm not a failure if I don't make it, I'm a success because I :tried!0

It wouldn't let me withdraw it, so I played through a few games of Deal or No Deal, making / losing 20pish each time, and then it let me withdraw £17.91 :j :j Absolutely no idea why or how, but hey, thanks Mecca Bingo, given me a bit of breathing space for a couple of days !! Woohoo !!! :beer:Mortgage Total: £51,549 / £75,000

I wasn't going to sign up to this officially, but can I?
I've actually made a real effort with this and it's paying off, so count me in.
So far I've got the £10 signup bonus from Cashback Madness, £20 on Ebay and £20 profit from signing up to Bingo site via Quidco.
Must keep the motivation going!!!0 -

#1.18 from quidco so far. I'll need to check my spreadsheet for Dec, but I think I've got some amazon sales that I didnt count for last month that I'll count for this month. I've also claimed #25 Mortgage Exit Fee from Northern Rock, but I think I'll count that when I get it. I've got a couple of mystery shops booked for next week. I think I'll get some stuff listed on ebay at the weekend.0

Hmm, thought I'd signed up to this but clearly not... can I please??
I am still unsure of how to count things... like this idea
"I'm counting them on the day I *make* it for this challenge, it's called 'Make £10 a day'. For other challenges, like the Olympic Challenge, I count them on the day I receive them but if you did that for this one you mihgt not get anyhting, as sometimes they take a while to make it to your account! Hope that makes sense!"
And think i might go with it... although will just update my totals on the clicks weekly... Yep thats it - I'm IN!! Not sure what to do about my clicks so i.e. before the challenge started - think I will begin on zero today which is a bit rubbish as can't inc bonuses - hey ho!!
Got £40 of Pigsback vouchers in the post today, but not sure if I have counted them elsewhere... don't think I can include them either boo!!!
Well off to start making this months cash xxxDFW Nerd #1310 -
Just popping in to say 'Hi' as I've just joined this challenge! I'm doing the daily clicks and mystery shopping. I'm also doing some merchandising at the weekend which is a bit scary. I'm only doing it because the MS co offered more money.0
