I posted a few days ago how I placed an order with Ali Express to replace something that was stolen from us. I used the earnings from the "side hustle gaming apps" that I use every day.
I figured since I have had a good weekend and have spent some of the earnings already, that I would share with what else my "gaming" has paid for.
Its a nice little way for me to see what tangible things these little "side hustles" actually buy/pay for lol.Things I don't have to use my freelance earnings or other income for.
I paid for Hulu, Netflix and Amazon Prime with this weekends earnings and still have $8.00 something in my Paypal account as well as have at least three or four payouts that will hit around midnight tonight.
So in case you aren't up to date on what those three things I used earnings to pay for are here's a breakdown.
Amazon Prime- $14.99
Hulu- $8.80
Netflix- $7.99
So that's $24.78 spent, and I just checked I have $8.24 left in Paypal.
So since Thursday night/Friday morning I have earned $33.02 just by playing games. That's not counting the payouts that haven't been paid out.
Not too bad if I do say so myself.
Let's see what the end of the weekend total is.

Sounds like you're killing it on those gaming sites. I should really put my tablet on the charager and really get to work on some, too. Could use the money.

I just paid for Peacock too.
Figured I might as well get all our streaming services up to date. Even if we pause them next month.

@thislittlepennyearns I've saved my money, and bought anual subscriptions for all but Hulu and Netflix.

@kaylachan Not everyone has that money to pay a year. It makes more sense to pay monthly.

It's not always that good. But for something I just have going and kind of interact with it while I'm doing other stuff. I might as well do it.

That's awesome! It's great to see how those gaming app earnings can add up and cover some regular expenses like streaming services. It’s a fun way to get more out of your time and effort. Looks like you're on track for a nice little side income boost—keep it up!

I am doing decent right now.
There's about two hours left of the triple earning. But I will get my payouts from today at about midnight. So that's probably when I'll call it for the night

Wellllll. Just think of it as work, not games. And it does bring some money in.
