    Can't believe what just happened. Won a full house on £1 bingo but also won the progressive jackpot!! Nearly had a heart attack when it said £107.79 :j

    Congratulations! :T

    I was pleased with my £20 win at Bingo yesterday. Also had another payment from Quidco this month for some reason :confused: so that's another £48.23 to this month's total for me.

  • Hi all

    Haven't posted since I joined this challenge so thought I would give you a quick update as I've been reading all your posts and they have really inspired me!:D

    I joined the challenge late on 7th March and didn't think I'd get anywhere near the £310 but I've managed £202.15 :T This has been through Mystery shopping, Quidco and Pigsback mostly but I also won a Faith in Nature hamper of products I would have bought anyway and an ebay voucher so I have included those too.

    Managed to save about £9 on nappies by stocking up on Boots.com for the next 2 months (by which stage I'll be potty training the LO!) - earning 700 in bonus advantage points and another £2 through pigsback.

    Have just done all the comparison sites for car insurance and have found one for £134 with £70 cashback through Quidco making it £64 for the year - almost the same price as the cat insurance. Woo hoo!! :T

    Am loving this challenge and will be so chuffed if I make the total by the end of the month. We need to save every penny we can for our wedding in September (£2000 to go!).

    xx
  • Oh yes, forgot to mention it was my birthday yesterday and instead of the usual going out to dinner etc. we used some vouchers to buy Mojitos for £2.50 each and a bottle of nice wine for £6.99 at weathespoons. MIL babysat for free - a grand total of £12 for a night out! (and definitely not going to win any prizes for most glamourous birthday girl! :rotfl:x

    I joined this on a recommendation from this site - they send really awful emails and you are supposed to read them or stay with them for 30 seconds or so and then it credits your account...... the emails are like spam and very Americanised and not at all useful. I just went to see how much I'd earned after eons of rubbish emails and it was 43p!!! Has anyone else managed to earn anything reasonable?

    Also I seem to have been doing endless surveys including a really inane one from Brainjuicer asking idiot questions - you choose a statement which reflects your opinion and then it asks you why you chose the statement! BECAUSE YOU ASKED ME WHAT I THINK!!!!:mad: But none of the surveys I've done from different companies have added up to enough to withdraw yet! Its really disheartening. If you don't get screened out you still get peanuts, and not till you've earned hundreds of peanuts can you withdraw a tiny amount!

    I see you have not made many posts. I am not going to quote your post over again but please realise that a google search by anyone can often bring up these forums. The people who run the B**g* sites can search on specific words. What you have now virtually shouted from the rooftops can be read by anyone, and some of us with commonsense may have already realised certain points about the B**** but decided not to shout about it! It had been mentioned in a quieter way a lot earlier on this thread. I realise you just wanted to share something to help others make money, but ............. the end effect may be to have the options withdrawn from us all.

    I joined archerfish as well and after about a month and a half of receiving junk mail I have the grand total of.... £1.34!!!!

    I know. Don't all faint at the magnitude of this.

    Don't think I'll be doing it for much longer....
