I have a three fold target for this month depending on how things go: target 1 £500, target 2 £750, dream target £1,000. Need some serious cash for house maintenance/furniture and then to start paying down the mortgage.

Great timing, I'm in!

Just updated my diary with my ways to make money this year, but I'm sure I can add a few more from your list! I'm going to aim for £500 for January (not including Airbnb)

Thanks for running this again ;)

OK. Last month was my first month of actually doing some of the money earning tasks, and I earned £243, which wasn't bad considering that I've not looked at many of the apps/possibilities out there, and I'm still awaiting payment for some MS jobs (I don't count it as earned until it hits my bank account!)

My January target is £350.

Oooh this is my first challenge and my first month doing this. I work full time as well as this so I am going to aim for £100. I don't want to aim too small but I don't want to have an epic fail either. I guess if I am doing well I can alter my goal mid month :)

Count me in! I am determined to improve my cash balance and become more financially healthy. 2017 has been a rubbish year for my family and I have high hopes for 2018. I work full time but would like to think I could earn at least £300 in January. Happy New Year to everyone on The Money Shed and hope it brings happiness, health and wealth!
