Did She... or Didn't She?

Day 7 of the $75 Goal Week has ended and just as the midnight hour struck...





...my eBay auctions closed....





...bringing me to $78.01!!! in extra earnings for the week from eBay, Surveys, and Associated Content!! YA-HOO!!! I'm so glad I didn't let you down!!

And here's the chart (a lot prettier than the beginning of the week!)

Now, here's the reality check... with eBay fees, I'll be under goal, but with four Associated Content articles still awaiting approval and payment, the money generated there will cancel out the negative effect of the eBay fees. So, nicely, any way I look at it, I crossed the finish line!

And I couldn't have done it without you! Thanks for the positives and the encouragement- it really helped to motivate me.

So, the totals for the week overall came in at:

eBay = $49.01

Associated Content = $7 plus 4 Articles still awaiting approval/payment

Surveys = $22.00 (not too shabby, I can usually do better- but it did force me to look around for new opportunities and I've now found two good survey sites to continue with.)

Next week, I'm going to explore all these areas further and show you how easy it is to add extra income to your week too. Plus we'll discuss more zero debt stuff, and well, we'll have to come up with a new fun goal for me to follow. If you have any ideas... please, please email me barbwebbauthor@yahoo.com or leave it in the comments!

Until then... hurray!! We did it!! :)

Hugs,

Day 6 of the $75 Week Goal

Well, there you have it... end of day 6 and I'm at $57.48...

Which means, I'll have to bring in $17.52 tomorrow.... (holding breath!) This is not going to be an easy task as I think my eBay items are pretty close to where I think they are going to close... surveys are totally slim on Sundays... and well, there's always my AC articles, but I probably won't know until next week whether they helped me cross the goal or not.

I hope you'll hang in there with me!

Today brought a $5 survey from PSB. (If you are not signed up with them yet, they can be found at http://www.psbsurveys.com/ - I don't get a ton of survey opps from them, but when I do, they are all for pay, and they pay promptly!)

eBay bids increased by $3... so here's hoping they close well tomorrow and I get uber close to the goal!

"See" you tomorrow,

Hugs,

Barb

How Much Will It Be?

Oh, the poll is tied right now... what will it be? Be sure to cast your vote and I'll do my best to reach the goal you choose.

I must say that $50 to $75 is probably the most realistic choice, but I'm all for pushing myself harder, if that's what you all decide!

It will be fun to report daily on my activities and hopefully make the goal in the end.

Another goal I've set (which is a long term one discussed in earlier posts) is to whittle down my credit cards to nill. The approach, I think I've finally landed on, is to tackle them in order of low to high debt. So, basically, I'll be throwing any extra cash earned on the lowest balance card until it's paid off, and then moving onto the next.

Do you have a method that's worked for you? I'd love to hear about it!

Will catch up with you tomorrow to find out what goal you've selected for me for next week!

Hugs,
Barb
