I had a spot of luck on prolific this morning catching a £7.00 survey! I have cashed in £22.05 and transferred 98p to Current account to round it, then transferred the rest to my CC, I actually spent quite a bit yesterday on groceries £20 and on fuel £28, I am going to ask for fuel money today so that will help if MD agrees. I am taking over their groceries very soon and we are going to one of our local haunts. Prolific is looking healthy at £0/£28.75 pending which should help over the weekend when it is quieter. Have a good day allXX

Ohh dear I seem to be in a bit of a spending rut, I am spending quite a bit on myself my credit card is at £781.11 It really should be less then this by now, So the mission for the week ahead is to stay at home, do chores and bake and not spend any money. Also look for jobs and try to get some business via email shots as well as do surveys, surveys have been good to me lately I am on £27.70 pending, although my credit card is in a worse position I did actually cash in £18.19 this morning, I wish I hadn't gone out, but I did enjoy what I did and got for myself, also it was good to see Roomie smile, he was manning the kitchen at his place of work today, and that is where I had the sandwich, it was to die for - honestly V Good, he can cook. I know it will be difficult but I would like to get to £600s by Saturday/ Sunday...wish me luckXX

I didn't get the job, they said there was too many areas where I lacked the skills. I don't know why they saw me if that is the reason? I wish they hadn't that way I would have petrol still! I feel down, There are other opportunities, and I will extend my search again, but feeling somewhat hopeless. Also I have spent more money, only on essentials but it is above and beyond what I would normally spend. On to the next job.

I have £826.22 of credit card bill, it was £844.64 a short while ago I managed to wangle a £14 survey which paid up straight away, plus a couple before that. I have created a spreadsheet for my planned attack of the credit card balance (I knocked off £18.42):-



I have put the end date September as my mission but it would be great if I could reach the end date by August, I normally get more then £60 there is a few coccasional quiet weeks but mostly I do quite a bit better. I'll put to the end of September but actually my aim will be end of August or before.

I am now going to be well behaved not buy any take out or snacks and be the perfect embodyment of perfection - Likely story!! Haha! I will keep trying to get a job and keep moving forward and try to be perfect!

Delurking with a suggestion - since you often do DIY/gardening/other chores & tasks for your mum would you consider signing up to a site like Task Rabbit or AirTasker for work?

I couldn't join rabbit tasker, but I have made an offer on air tasker for a photographer, thank you so much I had never seen anything like it before. Fingers crossed something else crops up, There were some gardening and cleaning jobs, but I am not very fit and it is okay with MD as I can always say that I have changed my mind or do part of it, but selling myself to do it wouldn;'t be right. However photography could be a good way to go - thanks.
