if you was a DJ, you can make very strong money from this too, (if you are good)





Very unlikely lol plenty good dj's don't make much money, to many people willing to play for free nowadays.

Good DJs should be making 140 a night at least....

Could shell out 200 quid for your SIA badge and start doing a bit of door/security work at the weekends.. (£10 an hour at least)

Its sh!t isnt it.

I earn good money but always seem to get close to running out at the end of the month, i love my social life so there is no way i could stay in on a friday or saturday night.
Today i noticed in Tesco (which is very close to my office) that at 4pm the sandwiches get stickers put on them priced at like 40p each! bargin!!
I normally spend £5-6 a day on lunch and reckon with my new find i can cut that down to £2.. That alone works out at £80 a month and that just a small effort which would be easy to stick to.

Sounds like you've already started the process though :afro:  Myself and Linzi are doing something similar; so we can buy a DPF delete pipe at the end of the month!!

Just a thought - when you eat dinner what is it that you have? Do you buy ready made stuff or do you bother taking a bit of time to cook something? If you make stuff in bulk (such as bolognese, chilli, stews etc) and freeze it, it can work out ridiculously cheaper than buying pre-packaged stuff. You'll also be doing yourself a favour by eating more healthily as there's none of the preservative cr4p in it and you know how much salt you're using.  :smiley:
