What I Earned in 2012 ~ Week 8

2012-02-25T07:00:00.005-06:00

Last year I made over $1300 just by doing things like clicking on emails, taking surveys and earning Swag Bucks. Every week I earned a little from different sources, but over the course of a year it really added up. It put a dent in our Christmas budget and also allowed me to purchase a big ticket item for myself without the guilt! When you get an extra $5 or $10 here and there it can also just help pay for some of the fun stuff.

I'm tracking my earnings again this year. I like seeing what I've made and hopefully it will show you some different ways that you can be earning a little extra too. It all adds up!

Here's what I earned this week:

$5.00 PayPal deposit from Superpoints ($20 this year so far!)
$10.00 Amazon e-gift cards from Swag Bucks ($55 this year so far!)
$10.00 Amazon e-gift card from Hallmark Mom's Panel
$20.26 cash back check from shopping online through Ebates

Total for the year: $ 196.26

Did you earn any extra "fun money" this week? How did you do it?
