30 ways to make and save money in November; 10 shocking fines you didn't know you could get; Reindeer Sweet Jar

Published: Tue, 11/04/14

Hello  ,

Can you believe it's November already? We've put together 30 ways to make and save money in November - one for every day of the month.

It seems like there are more and more things you can be fined for nowadays. That's just wasted money and we don't like that, which is why we've compiled this list of 10 things you didn't know you were doing wrong that could cost you £5,330.

Also, because November is Will Aid month, we explore the shocking truth about how your money could be going to the wrong people.

This week we welcome our new blogger, Razwana, an amazing copy-writer who is brilliant at helping people run successful online money-makers. This week she's looking at the honest truth about why you haven't started a business yet (that nobody will tell you.)


Check your inbox next Tuesday for more great money makers, money savers and bargains.

Love, 

Jasmine

What you must do this week

Protect your digital identity and assets from online thieves 
 
Britons store an estimated £2.3 billion of assets online in things such as PayPal, online banks and Amazon credit (not to mention data of sentimental value such as Facebook images.) 

When you die your digital money, photos, memories and even your identity could be lost or online thieves could access them.
 
Cirrus Legacy provides a service for you to store your digital assets in a secure online account so that when you die your account can be acccessed by a nominated family member only.
 
A one-time membership fee to Cirrus Legacy usually costs £150 but Moneymagpie readers can get an EXCLUSIVE staggering 40% discount when they use the code MM023 at the checkout - making it just £90!
 
 

​Make money with your mothering skills 

There are just two places left on the British Doulas course happening at the end of November so apply now to be in with a chance of getting on it.

As a doula you get paid to support women during and after birth.

Your main qualification is your experience as a mother but to get regular work you will need some training. We like the British Doulas course due to its high level of integrity and training.

Make £40-£100 just for giving your opinion 
 
Share your opinions, shape the future of products and services you use every day, and get paid for it? Yes, you can!
 
Saros Research is the UK’s leading portal for paid market research participation, recruiting for focus groups, in-depth interviews, online communities, games testing, website evaluations, product tests and all sorts of projects where researchers need consumer opinions.
 
You can only take part occasionally but when you do the pay is typically £40-£100, as well as being part of an interesting and fun experience, learning a bit more about anything from household name products to unreleased apps.
 
Registering with Saros takes 5 minutes, is completely safe (they are Company Partners of the Market Research Society and registered Information Controllers).  It’s open to any UK or Ireland resident aged 16 or over, and they have new projects all the time.
