Good morning everyone,

I'm brand new to the concept of making money online and feeling a mixture of excitement along with a niggle of scepticism. I've loved reading the comments on the forum and I truly hope I can achieve this too. There is fantastic resources and I can't believe how helpful the community is :)


I've just created an account for Roamler and it needs a referral code, can anyone help me with this please?

Hi everyone :)
I'm Hayley and at the moment I'm a stay home parent to 3 little girls. I love finding ways to make money from home, I got made redundant when I was on mat leave, so I've been trying to just make what I can. We're managing fine for now, but I'd love to not have to go back to work and be able to earn enough from home. Looking forward to reading through and seeing what everyone does! :)

Hi.. I'm J.
My husband lost his job 10 days before Christmas, while I was pregnant. Baby is now 10 weeks old and we are still unemployed, so I'm hoping to bump our money up slighlty for treats for the kids until one of us is working again.

I've made 3.88 so far from curious cat, I'm using shoppix, vypr and Swagbucks (oh my days how slow is).

I've stuck to meal planning the last two weeks which has helped slightly.

Next call is to go through our things to see if there is anything worth selling, and the odd bit to free cycle.

I haven't tried matched betting, it confuses me, can't get my head around it.

I don't make anything but I'm a brilliant genealogist (but with no qualifications) so in the long run I'd love to trace family histories for a living!

Hiya
Thanks for signing up to The Money Shed @stressedmom now let’s help get you some money :)

The best starting point would be the beginners guide to earning online toolkit which you can find here
https://blog.themoneyshed.co.uk/working-from-home-toolkit/

You can make around £1000+ a month from that alone so it should see you off to a good start depending on how much money you are after. I imagine if time is tight that you want to earn the absolute most you can in the time you have available and the likes of swagbucks etc jusr isn’t gonna to be worth your time.

Matched betting - far easier to do then read! I would give the banner above a click and do the free trial! You’ll make around £45 risk free and see just how easy it is as you have your hand held throughout!

If you have any questions please jusr ask. Everyone on here wants to help you earn the absolute most you Can each month and would love to help you do that!

Hi , I’m new here . I work 20-25 hours a week with varying shifts so often have spare time during the day while the kids are in school. Hoping to build up a bit of money in an account to leave for Christmas. Have been doing surveys on You Gov and Qmee , registered on street spotter as well. Hoping to build my way up to getting a Roamler code .

Hi and welcome :) You've had some good advice from @Jon but one thing I would say is be careful that any earnings you receive don't counteract any benefits that you may currently receive/be entitled to.

Welcome Claire - I'd definitely recommend giving the mystery shopping and Bemyeye a try as well. The pay is better than doing surveys and it's less maddening!

Hi, I'm new today and quite an experienced mystery shopper and lionbridger. Earning £3-400 a month in quite a straightforward way. I tend to use Ipsos and Tern for mystery shopping but not sure if there are any others worth trying. Ipsos has been very good lately, anyone else out there that will pay me £7-10 for a phone call or email? Less bothered about going to shops.

I'm signed up with retail maxim and gfk but dont' find them worth it.

Hey @pinkcrane

Fantastic to have you on here and posting!

I've not done traditional mystery shopping for years but when I did my bread and butter were Market Force / Edigitalresearch / IPSOS / GapBuster / Tern / ESA / Retail Active / Mystery-shoppers etc.

Thanks, is the non-traditional work any good? or just easier to do lots of quick hits?

Well the pay is higher and it's just a case of go in store > take a few photos > answer a few questions on your phone > done

So you're looking at Roamler, BeMyEye, StreetSpotr, Field Agent etc.

@mabozza on here has topped over £1000 a month sometimes from them!
