    1 November and my 14 month challenge has started. I’m only going to count money when I actually get it in my account so here goes. 

    @South_coast has set me a challenge to ‘earn’ £100 in November 

    £14.45 in today from prolific. I got a £9 survey yesterday that approved overnight which was a bonus and it took my earnings to payable. 

    £4.90 Topcashback

    £6.32 bank interest. 

    Free cash earned to date - £25.67
    Other free money earned to date - £0

    Hmmm, looks like I should have raised the bar 🤔 This is going to be too easy!
    Mortgage start: £65,495 (March 2016)
    Cleared 🧚‍♀️🧚‍♀️🧚‍♀️!!! In 5 years, 1 month and 29 days
    Total amount repaid: £72,307.03. £1.10 repaid for every £1.00 borrowed

    Finally earning interest instead of paying it!!!

    Always next month!  To be fair I think my max ever earned was around £200 a month

    Been a productive week money wise.. Into the back account went: 

    £20 in from 1poll

    and in non cash rewards I’ve got £8.65 in nectar points as I finished the count up to Christmas challenge and also had bonus points on a £90 spend and on buying £20 on clothes, both of which I needed to do anyway.

    Free money update 

    £25 win on Premium Bonds, £2.17 in from Everup, £41.40 on TCB thanks to an insurance policy sign up finally tracking and going to payable, 

    In non cash rewards, £5 Amazon voucher from Clear and £26.47 in nectar points thanks to the monthly credit cards points tracking. Spending has been a bit heavy on there due to Christmas and a large ticket item we recently bought but it’s cleared in full every month. 

    Free cash earned to date - £140.43
    other free money earned to date - £40.12
