About Us
We are all a little bit crazy here, but that's to be expected.

The name of our game is 'Cyberdosh', which basically means anything to do with money that can be played online. Literally, online cash (or dosh). 2007 saw the first official 'Live on £4000' challenge and this was completed with £1.50 left to spare.
 
2008 sees the challenge in a whole new light, as there are now well over 100 individuals from throughout the UK taking part for many different reasons. Most are debt free wannabe types. The challenge was re-issued on 17th December 2007 by NYK Media via the Moneysavingexpert.com website and you can read the live daily diary of events right here via the following links:
 
 
July - September 2008 ~ October - December 2008
 
 
THE CYBERDOSH CHALLENGE ON eBID
 
 
This challenge is for people who want to earn, save or spend money online by buying or selloing via the online trading platform known as eBid. You can check out all the challengers here and, whilst checking them out, perhaps even find yourself a bargain. We compete for the Cyberdosh eBidders Top 20 every month, so watch out for those top sellers with their exclusive bargains. Follow the antics of some of these sellers here. There's a sign up link at the bottom of each of the NYK Media posts. Don't forget to say you spotted 'Phil The Pig'.
 
 
Phil the Pig in the 'Sealed Pot' Challenge 
Every year, we save loose change in a bank and it's put towards a very special Christmas present for someone. In 2007 the bank was a little telephone box. For 2008, we have Phil the Pig. Because these are sealed banks, we have no idea how much is in them until December, when the contents are counted. christmas 2007 tally amounted to just over £44.00
2008's aim is to make it to £50 but there's no way of knowing exactly how much is going in without counting it. Instead, Phil is being weighed regularly and his weight gain charted. His 'birth' weight was 150g. His weight on 14th January 2008 was 2205g and you can keep up to date with his weekly weight gain on the main page of this site, HERE. 
Don't forget, if you want to do anything with money, do it online, play 'CYBERDOSH'!
Phil the Pig and the cottage industry
Yet another challenge is to 'start a cottage industry'. Phil the Pig forms the basis for this, as he was the first papier mache creation to be made as a result of taking part. Over the coming months, watch out for other fun (and funny) recycled goods that will be offered for sale in a bid to generate some extra cash. Phil the Pig keyrings are already available at 3 for £1!
As well as the keyrings, we also have the ingenious WILLITFIT postal measuring slot board - check it out here, where they are only £1.99 inc P&P within mainland UK.
