I Have Just Come Home With Over £100 Worth Of Goods & Total Cash I Spent Was £18

Wow Ellie wish I knew what surveys you do..lol..it would be nice to be able to get vouchers like that, something I'm in need of. I keep my earnings for a rainy day and that came this month..but I let my earnings build up before withdrawing any. At the moment I haven't had any freebies, it makes me wonder where do they come from....huggles littleowl

well Ellie, I do not understand your money system, but If you made a good buy than that is absolutely wonderful hon. We all have to find ways to economize in these terrible days.

HI Ellie, Yes i do online surveys as well to earn a little cash and so far this year I have made a round $500 from doing them and they pay me by either sending me gift vouchers, cheques or one pays straight into my bank account and so the vouchers I normally save for the kids to use when they go to one of their friends birthday party because you know when they come up you never have enough money to buy a present for them or if there is no party coming up then I just them in my everyday shopping and the ones that pay me with cheque or straight into my account normally goes towards a bill that is due at the time. I know its not alot but every little abit as you said adds up and i wish that i was able to do more of them and earn more but there are only a few companies here in Australia that you are able to earn from not the US where you guy's have a fair few of them by anyway I am happy to get any at all as it all helps us! Oh and as for freebies, we get reward points on one of cards and i just traded them in 2 weeks ago for free tickets to a theme park that we are going to on our Holiday next week so that saved me over a $120 so that was good

Hey, ellie, my only online earning is mylot and i've got only one payment which sent via paypal. But unfortunately i get it through paypal, i don't know how to get the real money, so it means nothing to me as i actually don't buy online.

Ellie, you are a genius! It must feel fantastic to have made all those purchases and have Christmas well on the way to being sorted. It certainly does make a difference - and it's an excellent idea to buy things online, in the comfort of your own home. It's horrible to end up in crowds with cranky, grumpy people all worried about finishing their shopping on time - not to mention finding parking and struggling with parcels and lists. Christmas can be very stressful - but it sounds as if you have it well under control!

Hi ellie! I would say that you have done especially well! That is really great! I wish that I had been able to do as well! I have done some shopping for myself actually, but the only thing was that I was able to purchase things on sale. I bought 2 new winter jackets for very reasonable prices because I went to a store that sells good quality items for lesser prices. I got one ski jacket of excellent quality for $49.99. That was a steal! I got the other one for $69.99 and that one was a suede jacket for a more dressy look. I'm a pretty good shopper and either wait for sales or know where to shop to get the best prices. I do alot or "shopping around" and comparison shopping. I use mylot money to pay bills only. Since I'm not working it takes me awhile to get money together or wait for gifts. I bought the jackets with money from my birthday.

Hi Ellie! You are wonderful wife! I would marry you if I have not already been committed. You would not spend a lot of money. That would be a very big plus. Joy to the man in your life :) On a serious note I do agree that every little helps and enables you to spend less. I have bought a dog book on shelties lately thanks to the money I made on my lot. It cosed around 7.50 uk sterling and I spent some money that I had in Paypal. So it came free.

hey good for you! that is great! i sold some stuff on ebay over the summer and with that money (plus the money i made on here) i used it to buy some christmas presents for my mom, and two daughters. it was worth all the hard work! you sound like you did very well. :-)

Well done you! That is fantastic and just shows that online earnings can be good enough to pay for somethings. I have earned quite a bit this year, that I had transferred over the year to paypal I have left it in there from about August I think and it has built up to over £150 and that is from myLot and surveys and other things that I have done. Next year I will just save it up all year round.

Well done Ellie, you have put your rewards to good use. I don't do any voucher surveys, because I don't do much shopping in the stores, but I do get Nectar points with my grocery shopping at the supermarket, and I get additional points when I use my Amex card. I let my Nectar points accumulate until there is something I need that I can get from Argos, and I pay for items at Argos with my points. The money I have earned online this year so far has already paid for my laptop, and I make more than enough each month to cover the cost of my internet service, so I'm getting free internet use on a free laptop, and use them to earn more money.

Well done on all your vouchers. My latest bargain was spending over £50 on the food bill and getting a voucher for money off the petrol bill next time I go to fill up my car

Hi ellie, That is money well spent, as I only got paid in October which was £32 from Mylot and that money has gone gone on food shopping and my next payout hopefully will be December because I didn't make for this month, will go on Christmas, that is if I make the payment, but you have done well with your online payment, well done. Love and Huggles. Tamara

Good for you! Sounds great! I am glad to hear that you got so much without having to spend that much! I feel that it is worth it, even if it can be at times tedious, the surveys and things turn out to be well worth it for me. I think that is a great idea to use your yearly earnings towards Christmas gifts! Thanks for sharing with us!

wow.. it's nice... !

I do surveys every day also. I get Paypal payments, gift cards and checks in the mail. I used my gift cards also to get special deals too.

Hi there ellie333! You must have been very happy to have had made those purchases. I would have been delighted if I had the same experience. I love Marks & Spencer products! I wish they could do some sale here in the Philippines though. Well, they actually do but the products available on sale are not my type. It's great to be able to buy products at discounted prices. I have not really spent my online earnings yet. Not for now I guess.

Hello Ellie! Wow, your online earnings sound like they are coming in very handy! Good for you, congrats on all of that. You sound like quite the thrify lady, very impressive, I think. I usually just intermingle my online earnings with other money I'm saving. This month I received a decent payout from a writing website and it was pretty exciting. It sounds like you will have all your Christmas shopping done without spending much money. I did order a 1 year subscription to a magazine about going green called, "Plenty" for free through an internet offer. The first issue arrived and it's pretty interesting. That was an internet freebie. My latest bargains were probably the back to school deals I got this past August, notebooks for 10 cents, folders for 5 cents. One store even gave away 10 folders to each person who asked!!

Wow Ellie!..you had some fun spending and saving at the same time..I wish i could do that but people so far are waiting to spend and hope they come out soon and spend so i can do what you just did.. Huggles and send me your address for a xmas card..

That is excellent, my only online income is from here and I am sure my extra went in food this month

So far, I didn't buy anything. Anyway, it feels awesome to earn a little extra money online while having fun! Cheers to you!
