Hi Everyone !
I'm Amy; I'm 28 years old, work full time, and in the past year I have gained a mortgage and a husband. My interests are playing the piano, my distance learning uni course, reading/listening to audiobooks, and watching Netflix/films.
For the past few years I have been using the internet to save money on everything from insurance to online shopping. I'm an avid follower of MoneySavingExpert, and Martin Lewis has probably saved me 100s of pounds over the past few years! I'm new to online earning, so it's going to be my new thing to learn about in 2015. I'm going to post on here as I try things out, and let you know how I get on with fitting it around my busy work and home life.
In the past, my dabbling has involved:
Quidco: since signing up in October 2011 I have earned £234.30. My biggest earnings were £81.82 from a Three phone contract, £80 from Aviva car insurance and £35 for opening a Nationwide bank account! I've also been using it to buy Christmas presents via their reward event, as well as completing their Christmas reward tasks. This has earned me £20.63 due to be paid in January. I have signed up to Quidco Opinions but haven't been invited to do any surveys yet.
TopCashback: I signed up in March this year and have earned £53.89. My best payout was £31.31 from Energylinx after I switched my gas/electric companies through them. I always check Quidco vs Topcashback when I buy anything online. Topcashback often offers slightly more, and I find they pay quicker, but they can't beat Quidco for Christmas rewards.
e-Rewards: I often fill out surveys for e-Rewards, which usually give me between 10 and 300 points at a time. In the past I have stashed up the points and converted them to Nectar points, in order to get good rewards like the Merlin annual pass (which I could never justify paying full price for in cash!). I do at least 1 survey a week.
I would like to try writing to earn money, and signed up to Textbroker in October, but they have not read my submission yet. I am waiting patiently!
As well as this, I have all the shop reward cards going, and mostly use my Tesco Clubcard, Nectar card, Morrisons miles and more card and my Boots advantage card. Out of all of these I have found Clubcard to give me the best rewards; in the past I have used the vouchers for holidays and for buying gifts for family such as Tastecard subscriptions and English Heritage membership. The others I just use for money off when I get vouchers or when I have stashed up enough points to get at least a fiver off.
So that's a bit about me. I'm looking forward to learning about online earning!
