£10 per day challenge

Well as i said yesterday i have taken on this challenge that is posted on money saving expert - the challenge is to earn an extra £10 per day throughout August.  I have been working on ways to earn some extra money both yesterday and today: i have been completing some surveys online and click click clicking on several PTC sites.  


I have decided to not count any earnings until the money has actually been paid to me - its important to me that i actually have the cash in my hand or account so i can pay something off my rates bill at the end of the month.  So although i have 'earned' some money online i haven't been paid for any of this yet.


I have found myself focusing more on how i can get some extra money in the past few days because of the challenge and i think thats a good thing :) I don't like not having anything to put in the pot though so i thought i would have a look around the house and the car for bits of loose change - I found a grand total of £1.01 hahahaha.


I know its not technically earnings, but it is money that  i didn't really know i had and i am adding it to the rates payment fund so i am counting it in the challenge.  


In addition to my online activities i have arranged to do a car boot sale tomorrow so hopefully that will add to the fund - i will have to be strict with myself not to spend my earnings on the other stalls though :) 


Right so progress so far: £1.01/£310 -its a start anyway! 


I am slowly adding the different debt amounts to my blog record too more or less as i get post in to confirm the amounts - i am not sure what i did with the rates bill though so thats still an estimate at the minute.


Have you managed to do anything towards paying off any of your debts today? if so i'd love to hear what you did.


Until tomorrow then, take care and good luck with your personal earnings!
