Banter & Babies

Over the years I have had the opportunity to product test for several companies. I enjoy it because you get to try something for free (normally) and I enjoy writing product reviews. www.bzzagent.co.uk   I was introduced to this site through a bargain hunting group (if you haven't already, check out Extreme Bargain Hunting UK on Facebook!). I joined a few months ago and so far I was able to try some Coleman's Seafood Sauce (which was absolutely delicious!). Sign up and fill out your information, remember to fill in all additional surveys you receive to keep your account up to date. You will get invited to take part in product testing via email, but be quick! They fill up fast (I missed out on a Johnstons baby product trial recently). It is mostly foods, shampoos, pet products but I have also heard of others trialling and being allowed to keep Shark hoovers so well worth it! www.supersavvyme.co.uk   Several years ago I discovered this site. It's fantastic for coupons, ...

This is just a quick and easy list (with referrals) of the apps that I use and check into each day. Some might take a few weeks to accrue money or points, but if you have small amounts of money coming in every now and again it all adds up! So here’s a little list and a brief description. If you click on the links while on your phone you can download the apps. Some of the apps you will have heard of before if you follow my blog and in my previous post. If you don’t fancy apps, have a watch out for a list of websites this week in another blog post. There are LOTS more out there, but these are the ones that I use currently with success. You may have noticed me mention a few of them before. Attapoll Attapoll is an app which invites you to take surveys based on your profile, to earn points which turns to money and you can request payment either directly to your paypal account, to bitcoin, to Ethereum or donate to your chosen charity. Here is the link to join and downloa...

The end of another week, this year is flying by! I hope some of you are finding my blog posts useful, as always if you have any questions feel free to get in touch or you can join my Facebook group here by clicking here Another fantastic way to get more for your money and earn some more in return are cashback sites and apps. It pays to shop around with these, as some may give you a better return for your hard earned cash than others. Here are a few websites and apps that I use at the moment and find very useful – if you have any others that you can think of please feel free to let me know! The hardest part about this is remembering to use them when you are purchasing something online! I make online purchases very often, and sometimes only remember when it’s too late and I’ve already bought the product. One thing you can do is use websites like Topcashback and Quidco (if you want to know more about these, read on!) as your search engines, or only search through the apps by do...

Prolific One of the best and most interesting sites I have discovered is Prolific  and if you aren’t already a member I urge you to join! The assignments are really interesting, the minimum payout is £5 to either Paypal or Circle (sign up to circle and send £25 in the first two weeks and earn £5!). With Prolific you also have the option to fund raise or donate your credits to charity which I find absolutely fantastic. So, how do you get started? Here's a simple and quick run down on how to get started with Prolific 1. ) Sign up – visit the Prolific Website by clicking  HERE and create an account. It’s really important to sign up as a PARTICIPANT and not a researcher, as you want to take part in the studies offered (unless of course you are a researcher). You need to sign up and verify your account, follow the steps to do this as they are quite straight forward – if not please do comment below, or get in touch. 2.)  Prescreening - you  must complete all...

Several years ago, bored and on maternity leave playing the waiting game, I read an article about comping. A lady was making £10,000 a month just entering competitions. Absurd, I thought. Actually..... I thought I'd give it a go, in the few short weeks I had before the bedlam of those first few hazy, manic, sleep deprived newborn moments. In those weeks I won £250, some books, some holiday goodies, perfume, cream, a vinyl record, some vouchers and lots of other bits and bobs. It was a far cry off £10,000 but it was something and it helped pass the time and took my mind off the waiting. If you are interested in comping, here's a few tips (only based on what I do). This is just a quick and easy post to get you started: Loquax.co.uk   This site is fabulous! Sign up, I normally pick the tab that says 'closing competitions.' To have a good chance they say entering about 30 competitions a day you will win a few things a week (tried and tested, it works). Ob...
