£10-a-Day Challenge: 2026

Thriftymissus

hi all, how is March looking?

after 2 months where I’ve been able to amass much bigger totals than usual, due to annual bank interest and birthday presents, plus cashback, March will mean me having to knuckle down to more surveys and selling, which I’ve been doing steadily so far.

I’ve got 45 items listed on eBay and Olio combined. Am actually getting some views so that’s a start!

take care and good luck all.

Wow @Thriftymissus , look at you go! I am still grinding mobile games atm – like someone else commented after a day at my desk I just can't face spending another slice of time doing surveys (although I have a YouGov one waiting for me that I might pick up tomorrow). However, I've got some days off coming up when I'm not doing much so I might try and rack some Prolific time up then!

I've also got some items earmarked for Vinted – just need to take some half-decent photos of them and re-download the app. Fingers crossed I get some interest. I also downloaded World of Books as I'm planning a bit of a spring clean but don't know if that will be March or April.

Well done @Thriftymissus and @FrugalAspirations !!

Had a great few weeks - bank switch of £175 eventually came through, another premium bond win of £50 and lots of overtime for OH (which means less time for me to do things though), plus small amount of Prolific, and £34 bank interest and cashback.

Can't really do any more bank switches for a while as I've done them all over the last 3-4 years so will have to force myself to do more prolific :)

Hope you're okay @MissMoneyMishap xx

Thriftymissus

like @Hollie_Hobbie said, hope you’re ok @MissMoneyMishap

Thank you @Hollie_Hobbie I’ve been really going for it. This is slowing down now as I have more work come in.

My list for March so far

EBay £42

Prolific £6.26

CC £1.10

Cashback £19.25

Evening everyone, my Sunday check in and I'm at £58.32 at the moment for March.

FB Marketplace £30

Vinted £14

World of Books £14.32

Vinted has slowed down quite a lot since February although I don't upload loads of stuff. I've managed to start getting a few bits and pieces on eBay and I still have a few things to pop onto FB Marketplace. I'm aiming for about £200 this month.

#22 Check in time again and this time I'm at £79.16 thanks to a few more sales on Vinted and money from TopCashback.

FB Marketplace £30

Vinted £22.60

World of Books £14.32

Top Cashback £12.24

However, I have been busy and have a few things in the pipeline which should pay out in April. I completed a survey for £10 (waiting for payment), waiting for £20 to be credited from Tester Buddy and I've been chosen to do a product trial which earns £80. Also waiting for £50 from Topcashback for the Cahoots bank savings account opened last month.

Hope everyone is having a good month
