Hello fellow Scers! A new year, a new thread! 2014 was an amazing year of savings and with all the success of the new points and cash-back programs, 2015 will likely be among the best years yet!! Get ready to share your earnings so we can applaud your efforts and pick up a few tips ourselves!
If you're new to this thread, here's the 411: "other money" refers to the various rebates, survey sites, cash-back programs, loyalty programs, special "call-in coupons" etc that SCers can/and have used to earn extra $ towards lowering their out of pocket expenses. It's amazing how fast these sources can translate into significant earnings in any given month!
The next post below will include a list of some of the most popular ways we're earning cash, and I'll also include a link to the old 2014 thread for a reference of sources.
The best way to learn and earn: stay active on SC! Read up on all the deals and brags so you can stay in the loop on all the great ways to save. It does take work but the posts are proof that it pays well!This thread is currently associated with: N/ALast edited by $avvy$hopper; Tue, Jan 12th, 2016 at 11:32 AM. Reason: old thread for reference only!

wow! Great starts indeed! I haven't signed up for Snapsaves yet...I'm still so new to Checkout51, submitted my second receipt today but getting better at pairing those offers with sales, coupons and the like. Looking forward to having some totals like yours sometime this year.
A friend posted that 52 week challenge on Facebook; nice chunk of change if you keep it up! Let us know how it goes, I may jump on it too once the bill payments are done!

i love the 52 week challenge. last year was the first year i heard about it and i did it for more than half a year and then i gave up.
for this year i have another plan to complete my 52 week challenge. instead of following from week1-week52 or from week52-week1, i am going to see how much i can save in that particular week, and put a cross on that line. for example, if i can save $49.00 in this week then i can put a cross on week#49 because i am saving this money this week. similarly if, in any given week, i can save $60.00 then i can put a cross on 2 weeks totalling $60.00.
i hope i am making some sense, and i hope that i can follow my own plan. lol

Waiting on my Checkout 51 checks that I cashed out to cover our holiday time-off. (4 kids = a tight budget). Cashed out mine & hubbys totalling $180. Thinking I should cash out all apps and start fresh for 2015, see how I do saving for next holiday break. Our work shuts down for at least 10 days over the holidays, so we always try to save enough vacation pay to cover those that aren't paid holidays. But this year still made it kinda tight. Had to cash out PCPlus for groceries too, had built up $160, now down to $25 left. Very grateful for all the App & Card savings. Love the idea for the 52-week challenge, crossing out your grocery savings to equal. Might try that one and piggy-bank it. Setting it up in savings never seems to go far for me, too easy to transfer funds. Wish me luck!

Anna Michele...my husband and I actually did the 52 week challenge for the first time ever in 2014. $1378 x 2=$2756.00!!! We bought a brand new fridge and bought all of our christmas gifts for the family with that money and we still had money left over!! So we treated ourselves to buying ourselves gift cards to our favourite stores to use up the remaining money. We are definitely doing it again this year. I especially loved the feeling of being able to buy all our Christmas gifts this past year without it hurting (know what I mean?) We didn't feel any pain. Everything paid with cash!!!

So far my first bonus of dough will be a Snap cheque for $20.25 once it arrives! Been saving long and hard for it as this is my first cash out and had the app likely over 6 months lol!
