----- The Introduce yourself thread! -----

[Jon]

Hi everyone,

I’m new to the Money Shed today after finding out about it from a blog. I’m completely overwhelmed by all this amazing information but also really excited to sink my teeth into it!
I live in Yorkshire with my husband and 2 daughters and I work part time. My aim is to generate enough extra income to take the family on a good holiday this year
I’m looking forward to chatting with you all soon.

Hi @SparklyMum - Fantastic to have you on here and posting!!

Good to see someone else from Yorkshire lol

You should EASILY be able to take your family on a holiday with your online earnings. Heck i've paid for 3 trips to Florida in the last 2 years entirely with Risk Free Matched Betting money

Do you have a certain amount of money you are looking to earn each month?

 

[SparklyMum]

Hi @Jon,

Thanks for the welcome
Wow, that’s really impressive! We went to Florida 2 years ago and thought it was a ‘once in a lifetime’ trip, but hopefully it won’t be!
I’d like to built it up to £500 per month and once that’s comfortable, then £1000 ideally.

Sounds great!

I would suggest you take part in the monthly challenge thread, heck I even give away money in there!!

Hi all!

I'm Steve and I'm married with two young children. We live in a house which we have renovated from derilict in the west midlands and we are really passionate about saving money.

Money saving ventures we are involved with include:

Selling on Amazon and Ebay
Renting our driveway on JustPark (This is a big earner for us, due to the location of our house)
Mystery Shopping for a few different companies
Long time Quidco and Top Cashback Member
...and I'm about to join Profit Accumulator to do some matched betting!

Great to meet everyone, I hope to communicate with some of you soon

 

[Hezzy]

I’m a long time survey queen but looking to up my hourly rate lol. I’ve done about a week of matched betting - so far not always successfully!
We live very frugally but ideally I’d like to make some cash to help out a friend. I’ve done a bit of comping but no big wins ☹️

Hi,

I am Jo, used to do surveys years ago, it is a lot easier now that smartphones are around! Trying to get used to one app at a time and the moment and have signed up for some survey sites but not loads over the Christmas/New Year period. Easing myself in slowly! I live and work in a town centre though which is proving to be handy. I work full time so popped to a shop five mintues away in my lunch today to complete a mission through Clic and Walk and earned £5, on the way back took a 5 photos of jobs apps for Job Spotter, got home from work and completed a WhatUsersDo Test which I actually enjoyed doing.. another £5 earned. Plus completed a few surveys for points to add to my balances, bit of a productive day today

Hi Hezzy,

I was just wondering how long would you say that it takes to learn Match Betting? I am thinking of doing it but need to block out some time to actually learn all about it so was wondering what a rough time that it takes would be?

I have done comping as well, enjoyed it but just didn't have the time. Did it for a couple of months and won a bottle of mustard and hot sauce

We probably spent a good couple of days watching all the video guides and you tube stuff over xmas. I am getting quicker but still ...

 

[Jon]

Honestly you can end up watching endless videos about matched betting

You are better off just getting in with it and leaning by doing!

You have your hand held throughout anyway so it’s not like you go it alone

GET EARNING!!!

Hi, I'm Faith.
I'm married with 2 kids at primary school, and live near Ipswich in Suffolk. Gave up my office job when my first was born, and work from home writing and blogging, mostly about money. We moved out to the country a few years back, and things were particularly tight while my husband was looking for work. Always keen to earn a bit extra and make the most of the money we do have!

Hey Chammy! Waving from Suffolk! Thanks for the welcome.

Sooner or later, anyone worth their salt that has anything to do with money (making or saving) ends up on TMS ; )

Ha! Why thank you Jon. Takes me a while but usually I get there in the end. Bribery for posting also helps!

lol Good old bribary

to be fair it's not a new thing. I award £30 in prize money every month in the challenge thread 12 months a year! (sometimes £60 in prize money!) plus I run the current posting contest a few times a year as well plus we do sweepstakes during sporting events with £100 prizes.

NO OTHER MONEY SITE GIVES AWAY AS MUCH CASH AS THE MONEY SHED!!

More of a re-introduction than an introduction for me. Was a reasonably active member here about 18 months ago but family life and work have meant that I havent posted or made any money beyond my normal salary for over 12 months. Plan to gently reintroduce myself over the course of January and then may start to rejoin the challenges in Feb!

Hello to anyone that remembers me!
