Make £1,000

1000

You may have been reading my blog for some time, or you’re a new comer. Hello. I really want to hit home to you about how you can make extra money. There’s always something you can do, but knowing where to start can be difficult. So here, I present you with possibly the best blog post ever. I’m going to show you how to make £1,000.

You see, £1,000 is just 100 £10s. And I’ve even come up with a list of 100 things to do that should, on average, net you £10. Now obviously some of them will earn you more (switching banks to First Direct nets you £100!), and some of them may not be relevant to you, or you may earn less than the £10. But hopefully it all evens out so that you can make at least £1,000.

This idea came from a thread on Money Saving Expert, set up by Little Miss Uni Debt. The challenge is that people set themselves a target – either a savings target or debt that they need to pay off, and then split it into 1% goals. To make £1,000 you need just 100 ideas to make £10. And here they are, all ready for you to start earning! Bookmark this post and keep coming back to it. It is great for giving you ideas, or for you to keep on track with everything.

Pinecone Sign Up Link – £3 per survey

Pinecone are by far my favourite survey site – they pay £3 per survey and you know very early on if you’ve been screened out – no time wasted. You can either be paid via Paypal, redeem your points for prizes or, my favourite, Luncheon vouchers that can be used against food purchases, or in my case, Nando’s!

Here is the sign up link but be quick – they accept one sign up per household and it is definitely worth being on their panel!


Swagbucks 5th Birthday Celebrations

Have you RSVP’d for Swagbucks‘ 5th Birthday Blowout? It’s easy to do, and when you RSVP you’re automatically entering yourself to win one of five $1000 CASH prizes. The whole birthday celebration will be a big one – they’re giving out 135 Swag Bucks worth of codes, and they’re giving away four more $1000 cash prizes on the 25th when they celebrate. You can find the RSVP link on the Swagbucks homepage – just look for the birthday image and click on it to be taken to the RSVP page.    If you’re not a member of Swagbucks yet, join me and use the code 5THBIRTHDAY during registration – you’ll start with 120 Swag Bucks instead of the usual 30.

Swagbucks Inbox

As you go about earning your Swag Bucks everyday, one thing you might overlook is that little envelope icon on the righthand side of the menu bar. It leads you to your personal Swagbucks.com inbox, and it could be full of earning opportunities for you right now. Swagbucks will send out targeted earning opportunities ranging from watching videos to taking surveys that go straight to that inbox, as well as Rewards Store and Swagstakes Announcements, contest info and more. Try to make it a habit to check your inbox once a day, since some of their messages will expire, and you don’t want to miss out on a chance to add to your Swag Bucks!

Superpoints: The Guide

Superpoints is no longer in existance, however this post will remain here for reference.
Happy New Year everyone! This is just a flying visit to introduce you to a new money making site I’ve found: Superpoints. This site is similar to Swagbucks but not as fast paced and not as many earning opportunities for you.
To sign up you need an invitation – my links are above, or comment with your e-mail address and I’ll get an invitation sent out to you. There are 4 different membership levels. You start as “none”, then as your rank increases you work through “basic”, “gold” and “platinum”. The advantages of moving up the levels are that your redemption threshold is lowered, you get more clicks on the Superlucky Button (more on that in a moment) and you receive invitations to participate in surveys.
The Superlucky button is a great way to earn Superpoints. Depending on your membership rank you will get a certain number of clicks per day, where you can earn Superpoints. I’ve earned between 1-10 Superpoints per win.
Superlucky mail is a daily e-mail, delivered direct to you with some Superpoints in. Just click on the link in the e-mail to redeem your points.
You can also earn points by watching videos (Earn points>watch videos) and completing offers. There aren’t as many offers or opportunities as Swagbucks, but it all adds up.

Prizes include Amazon gift vouchers and Paypal money. For 1,000 points you can earn a £5 Amazon gift voucher, or $10 into your Paypal, which is roughly £6.33. I know which one I’ll be doing! Payouts are made weekly, often on a Monday or Tuesday.
