    Hey ladies , I’ve told a lot of people that I do 2 jobs to save for ba ! I work 45 hrs in hairdressers for 175 pounds then I working 17 hours in a bar for 102 pounds . At the moment I feel pushed out of hairdressers as my manager nt booking clients in as we have a newly qualified hairdresser who we pay less then me . Last week this really upset me and at the bar some one been sacked . So I’d be earning 180 pound . More then hairdressers but losing 100 as usually work 67 hrs a week. Including both jobs . I either put a thousand on my credit card for this op and happy life :) or work 2 jobs still . What wud u do x

    Hey girls I’m in the same boat! But…. Have you tried mystery shopping? I have done a couple of these and managed to make £40 extra this month to go towards my BA with 2 shops! If you go onto the money saving expert site there is a thread on there, search mystery shopping and it will give you links to all the reputable companies in the uk. Takes a while to sign up with tests to do but it is extra cash! Another one is slice the pie, a site where you get paid to review new music, get paid from 2 cents to 25 cents a song, soon builds up!!! I hope this helps you, every little helps!! ( plus it would ne good to know I’m not the only one doing EVERYTHING possible for some extra pennies ) xx
