Make £2026 in 2026

Updating for Feb and March:
£10 Swagbucks
£1.70 Morrisons freebies (Easter app feature)
£5.89 Lidl freebies (from app)
£75.50 free exhibition tickets (I've started a new job which gets me reciprocal access to museums, so I will be rinsing this!)
£2.83 bank interest
Then I wasn't sure whether to include this or not but I think it counts; I won a competition last year for a free hotel stay (which I included in last year's total) - I went earlier this month and the hotel gave my partner and I a free room upgrade as well as free drinks vouchers for their café. Hard to say exactly as prices flex depending on when you book, but I think the upgrade was worth about £150.
£16.20 drink vouchers
Yearly total so far = £333.01

I am looking forward to a supersized boost tomorrow in the form of savings interest, which should boost my total considerably. So if it's another bad month for the Premium Bonds, at least I've got something! I've also boosted the units and coins on Mistplay and PlayWell, racked up some more Boots and Tesco points, and even started comping again to win more things to sell on Vinted! I'm giving this challenge everything 😀
Well done everyone for all of your efforts for these first three months of 2026 - some very impressive earnings and totals 😀 xxx
