    I've not checked in in a while, but I'm doing ok - I'm at 203.47 so far this month. But I'm going to be short on my 2nd job money as no shifts for the next couple of weeks :( Think I'm going to have to ebay my way out of this month!

    Starting to flag a little after a good start. :(

    I'm planning on listing a few bits on ebay either tonight or tomorrow. Also need to book some travel insurance online so should get a little bit of cashback that way.

    Today so far:
    Daily clicks approx 40p :(

    ive got another 5p today and have got hubby looking at things that he wants to sell, lol

    he has bet me that he can make more money that me next month and we are looking for all sorts to list - at the moment he is voting for my collection of dolls (that he hates) and im voting for his badminton stuff - wonder who will win that one, lol

    Also just kicked him really hard - found a cleared bill from littlewoods that he had put in the kitchen to go in the bin that had cash back left on it - 5 mins of nagging later he rang them and is being sent a cheque for £25 - not bad going for a bill that he has been paying £15 a month for lmao

    Whilst digging out the Littlewoods stuff I also found an invoice from Lush saying I'm £5.95 in credit. Will be asking for that back methinks! Even if I just end up with a credit note for the store it still feels like "found" money and will def be counted in the challenge. Won't count it though until I know I'm getting it back. Few measly quid today from Amazon stuff - but it all adds up. Will also get ebaying at the weekend. I'm really enjoying the challenge although I keep having a bit of a panic about not reaching £310. Nothing bad happens does it? Martin doesn't come round my house and tell me off.......?:rotfl:

    earned my first £6 from play. put together with MB profits of £121 that puts me about on track. haven't got ebay started yet - its not that I am a novice - I'm quite experienced at ebay - its that what the block is, its quite a chore.

    will be looking for some Overtime soon hopefully by end of month.

    Not made anything for the last few days but have stuck a few more things on eBay (just vouchers so won't make loads). Got an email tonight from one of survey sites inviting me to an online focus group tomorrow which pays £20 so that was rather nice! :)

    Had a good day today. Got a cheque from Abbey after writing to them about claiming back the mortgage exit fee from them that we paid a few years ago - thanks MSE Martin. Also got £50 tracked on Quidco from siging up to Betfair but only going to count £40 as had to deposit £10 of own money to get it. Then also got 45p tracked for signing up to Coke for a newsletter.

    Not a bad day realy.

    Marie :)
