    Money Diary for my Trip to Japan!

    I'm going to try selling some stuff mostly (clothes and DVDs) and have a go with a mix of Field Agent and Roamler. I also keep finding change around my flat, which is an excellent start as hopefully it will add up to a good sum :) I think my main hindrance will be getting forgetful of the...

    Smartphone Apps [OT] Field Agent UK - Earn money using your iPhone

    £200! That's incredible! I've only just got the Field Agent app but there doesn't seem to be many jobs/tasks around me at all - despite me commuting to and from the City for work.

    Selling online

    Do you know if you have to have bought the items on Amazon in order to sell them on there? I recall when I was selling a load of my old DVDs and CDs that that was the only option I could find on Amazon - maybe I wasn't looking properly!

    nominate your fave/least fave TV advert

    I quite liked the Booking.com advert too but I believe that was the one that had lots of complaints because it sounded like he was swearing. It's a shame though, as I found it pretty memorable and it definitely helped me to recall the site when I needed to research holidays. I generally just...

    Small things you do to save money

    This is something that I would love to start doing. It's amazing how even change on the street can add up to that. Can I ask how long you were picking up money in the street to reach that? I think the best way I save my money is by rarely using heating. I live in a high floor flat so I get a...

    Money Diary for my Trip to Japan!

    I'd like to save £1000 for the start of September, to use as holiday money for when I go to Japan. So far I've saved £419 since the middle of March, but I think for the purposes of this diary I want to start at 0 and make a note of what I've saved and where it is :) Target: £1000.00 Saved so...

    New Starter Here!

    Thanks very much for the warm welcome guys, and also for the link, Katykicker - It looks super useful! I've been using SwagBucks since mid-January and earned about 6000 SB. So far, I've converted that into £20, so while it is a way to make money, I think it's of little value to the amount of...

    Never Spend a £2 Coin Again

    I have a jar at home that I put money in but it's a clear glass jar - sometimes I wonder if that isn't such a good idea as it tempts me to take money out when I'm strapped for cash!
