Hello there

Hope you're all having a good weekend. I'm afraid I'm going to have to throw the towel in for this month as I can't get that elusive £10/day. This month seems to be constantly throwing money away instead of acquiring it. I've had to pay out for some glasses and pay for some plastering work in the living room. Then on Monday we've got to have a new back window and door so that's going to cost a fortune even after someone donated the window and our friend (who does double glazing) is getting us a 2nd hand door and fitting it all :eek:

Feeling a bit down about debt today cos I never seem to get on top of it but
I'm definately going to get my act into gear for April, though and achieve the challenge.

Good luck everyone xx :T

I'm feeling a bit down too, cos I'm not gonna hit the target this month. HAve decided to move house so ging to be concentrating on decluttering and getting house up to scratch ready to go on the market. Given up on daily clicks as they're hardly worth the effort nowthey're so low. Seem to have spent a bit this week too, bit of a splurge on clothes and dvds.

Also, just spent a couple of hours listing stuff on ebay, then bid on a couple of items that cost more than whatI'll make if all my items sell. grrrrr - where's my self control gone?!

Why don't you just revise your target to £5 a day and then it might feel more achievable. And you could both still keep using the cashback sites when you need to buy something such as insurance, so at least you would be storing up money for a couple of months time.

I made £1.50 with cashback and 5p from Pigsback but had to refund £2.19 for a CD I sold as one of the tracks skipped (well thats what they said, but it copied find onto my computer before I sent it!) :mad:

So thats cancelled out my money made but I'm over target so still happy

Went shopping today but was good and only bought a few bargains in Primark instead of my usual expensive shops.

Night out with the girls tonight which should cost me a few bob when we get onto the cocktails :beer:

Jesarose - I would have asked the buyer to try cleaning the CD, and if that didn't work I would ask them to send it back before refunding. You'd be be surprised but I think they would suddenly find it played well after all - and suggesting they clean it gives them a 'let-out'. It may feel like too much hassle but its only a couple of emails......

Did the betfair thing through quidco last night and bet my £10 on portsmouth fc to win and they did!!! So now I've got £25 in Betfair. Not got a gambling problem but it's quite addictive to win something isn't it?

Another £60 to add to the pot from a client plus a bar shift this afternoon - so all in all not too bad!

Keep on going everyone - doing fantastically :T

Did your Beftair thing track? I'm still waiting for mine to track after two weeks!

It is addictive to win - on the bingo there's a split second when you're waiting for the last number to come up and it appears a moment before it tells you you've won - I'm getting addicted to that!

Yes it has tracked already - I'd get on to them to make sure you'll get it. My SunBingo hasn't tracked though :rolleyes:

I know what you mean about the bingo. I must look so funny shouting numbers at my laptop when I'm bingo-ing. Good job I live alone really
