I was wondering if anyone would like to join me Smile truth be told I really need the support!

Having DS has reduced my savings, and ability to save now that I'm paying for childcare. So my aim this year is to make £3650, or £10 a day which sounds far less terrifying.

I just thought this would be a great idea to share ideas for earning extra money and cheering each other on. Way better than just staring at a spreadsheet.

Soooooo here it goes.

Day One - £33.37/3650

£22.87 matched betting, and £10.61 Leapforce.

Be careful with that stilton. I had a look at the terms and conditions and they say not to refresh more than every 60 seconds. Don't get banned!

stiltonontoast · 25/01/2019 12:56

@SpockPaperScissorsLizardRock Oh really!? blimey I didn't realise.

Thank you to the posters above for reassuring me about how TopCashBack TBC works.

Checked today and my two Amazon purchases are now there with CB pending. The ebay ones are not on yet but I only did them last night.

I have also ordered a microwave on Amazon via TBC as we desperately need a new one. That should bring some decent CB.

I can't believe I have only just started using TCB! When I think of all the £000s I have spent over the years on appliances and insurance. i am kicking myself!

Does anyone know if you can get CB from instore shopping? We spend a fortune in various supermarkets but pay in cash. Is there any way that these spends can be cashed back?

If anyone else is as daft as me and is not already making use of cash back sites, I urge you to join one ASAP. TopCashBack is easy to use and you could use my referral link if you would be so kind. I will return the favour by using any referral links you may have that I have not yet signed up to. Just let me know.

Finally, any updates from our budding stockmarket traders on Trade121? Can't wait to hear more.

Ok so just sold my stocks on 212 Trading and have withdrawn them. Now to see how long that takes...

NetballHoop · 25/01/2019 15:40

Nice one Stilton. I can't sell mine before the weekend but if it all works as it should I'll be around £160 up on Monday thanks to two SAP SE shares.

Otterses · 25/01/2019 17:08

@stiltonontoast could you withdraw the full amount?

Mine has shot up to £70 odd (two referral shares) but I can only withdraw £18 Confused which was my original share value +£1.

SpockPaperScissorsLizardRock · 25/01/2019 17:37

You probably have to keep each one for 3 days Otterses.

Otterses · 25/01/2019 18:30

 I thought it was Saturday @SpockPaperScissorsLizardRock Blush

I think I'm cracking up.

ChakiraChakra · 25/01/2019 20:41

😂 @ Otters !

Withdrew my £1 a day or two ago - showed up in my online banking today no probs. Withdrew my share, all £11.09 of it today successfully! Think I have hopefully got a referral share to come but no sign of it yet.

Switched to practice mode but was scared of spending the balance in practice mode ( 50,000 ) accidentally for real 😂

£1.60 from free spins today. Just abut to log on and do some MB now my replacement debit card is here 😁

mamaslave18 · 25/01/2019 21:12

My DH tried to sign up to 212 trading using my referral link but it wanted him to upload 3 forms of ID?! I didn’t have to do that did anyone else here?

@mamaslave18 maybe the same IP address/physical address as you triggered the extra security?

@leamaria that was Betfair. On the site they had a special free spins joining offer so I joined, and this was free spins to launch a new game I think. The best casino moneymaker imo is £50 quidco cashback for depositing £5 at Gala bingo. I didn't win anything from my £5 but the cash back has been tracked ok.

Otterses · 26/01/2019 07:33

@ChakiraChakra 😂 it's been a long week I think!

So, if my SportPesa and 212 go as planned today I should be £120+ today Grin ! Still haven't gotten around to wiping my laptop either, which is shameful really because it's easy cash.

How's everyone else getting on? Any other successful 212 withdrawals?

boringlyboring · 26/01/2019 12:11

My withdrawal fund is 0 at the minute, ottereses though 3 working days should be Monday (is Saturday classed as a working day these days?). My £1 isn’t in there either.

I also haven’t received a referral share yet, I think a pp said they clicked mine.
Will update if there’s any change on Monday!

Otterses · 26/01/2019 12:22

I may leave mine till Monday @boringlyboring ! I'm still on £18 even though everything was credited Tuesday Confused

I use a website for ideas called the money shed. Full of people who make money online with varying degrees of success. I do all the receipt snapping apps and generally cash in amazon vouchers at Xmas. I also use swag bucks which has become less and less fruitful, there used to be loads of videos you could just play automatically on the website and via its apps but not anymore. Sad

ChakiraChakra · 26/01/2019 17:07

Just done the maths and after all income and expenditure from matched betting, free spins and quidco I am £6 up (I'm including spending £17.99 on the Odds Monkey tool here). Should be £16+ after a few races tonight have resolved, but it got complicated with guaranteed prices so I'm leaving them until they are some to actually work out!

However if my Pending receipts work out which there's no reason to believe they won't, I'm in total profit of £75.80 😁

AMomHasNoName · 26/01/2019 18:06

I've made 170ish this week . £14 from oh my dosh . But most of its from MB or freespins . It's just abit annoying having money that's on online accounts rather than in my bank. Ive started to withdraw it now and leaving Betfairs in .So hopefully some of it will be in the bank next week . :)
My shares are at £47 now but i can't sell them yet either. Grin

SpockPaperScissorsLizardRock · 26/01/2019 18:10

I'm up about £70 this week, mostly from website testing. Due about £25 from trading 212.

Otterses · 26/01/2019 18:31

@SpockPaperScissorsLizardRock that's fantastic! £70 is an absolutely amazing amount to be earning from website testing, and I admire that you can get your head around it! 

@AMomHasNoName I felt that way, I kept winning into the exchange so I've withdrawn £150 from Betfair today to pop in the new savings account. £170 is amazing though. Regardless of where it is you should be chuffed to bits with yourself.

@ChakiraChakra again, amazing amount! I hate waiting for bets to settle 😂 I find I keep checking, as though it'll make the race happen faster.

Without wanting to sound like a total sop, I'm so proud of all of you 😭 I can't wait to see everyone's earnings at the end of the month.

Otterses · 26/01/2019 18:34

Ah. And today; £35.71 matched betting, £18 from 212 (still £55 to cash out) and the usual £10.61 from LF.

The laptop is charging, ready to be wiped and sold on. Aiming to tackle this if DS goes to bed and see if I can arrange for someone to collect it.

gonegnome · 26/01/2019 19:00

Thanks for all the ideas from this thread! So far I've got about £40 after spending on OhMyDosh, £22 from Prolific, £20 winnings from bingo sites through OhMyDosh and have found about another tenner through Swagbucks and Quidco that I'd forgotten about! Aiming for another tenner from Qmee but it's a bit slow so I'm going to bin that and Swagbucks. So nearly £100 from January.

Aiming for another £10 by end Feb from Shoppix + pending offers on OhMyDosh / Prolific surveys.

The Trading 212 is interesting and thank you to the person whose link I copied (I forgot who but someone on here!) so here is mine too in case it's useful for anyone: Smile

Otterses · 26/01/2019 19:34

Glad you're finding it helpful @gonegnome Smile I'm going to go over the thread and compile all the ideas into one list for the next thread. There have been some great ideas on here.

stiltonontoast · 26/01/2019 20:22

Managed to withdraw £101 from Trading 212 - result! Apparently it automatically goes back onto the card you used to deposit 3-5 days after withdrawal is approved.

£4 from Prolific today, very interesting study about relationships.
