  1. Roger,
    have a look @ http://www.mycheapergoods.com , sign up for free and get paid when you shop online or get paid when anyone you refer buy online in one of the thousand major online retailers like play.com, tesco, next, pc world ...(tip: Insurance companies seem to pay a nice percentage in cash back)

    good luck with your challenge

  2. Good Idea Roger.

    I personally will have a try next year, as I have committed to other business and finances this year. However if I get time to be creative, I will sign up for the Challenge.

    Regards

    Steve

  4. absolutly, people can come in when they like, just the later they leave the more they have to put down themselves to get in (the target amounts and dates aren't going to change).
