This TikTok Video Made Me £10.80 Commission

Featured

This TikTok Shop Affiliate video generated one qualifying sale and £10.80 in actual settled commission.

I posted this TikTok Shop Affiliate video to test whether a normal TikTok video could generate a real product sale. The video promoted the HP-1 Focus Supplement through TikTok Shop. It generated one attributed sale, with £10.80 in actual commission at a 20% commission rate. The order was placed on 28 July 2026 and the commission was officially settled on 13 August 2026. The interesting part is that the video did not need thousands of views to generate a sale. This is one real result from my own test and does not mean every TikTok Shop Affiliate video will make money. Results depend on the product, audience, content, views, conversions and current commission rate.

I Delivered 1,000 Leaflets – Is This Side Hustle Worth It?

Featured

I delivered 1,000 leaflets to find out how long it takes and how much you can actually earn.

I tested leaflet delivery as a real UK side hustle. I personally delivered 1,000 leaflets and tracked every session. 📮 Leaflets delivered: 1,000 ⏱️ Time: 4 hours 28 minutes 🚶 Distance walked: 14.45 miles 🔥 Calories burned: around 1,733 💷 Pay rate: £10 per hour 💰 Total earned: approximately £44.73 That works out at roughly 224 leaflets delivered per hour. The work was simple and required no startup cost for my test, but there was a lot more walking involved than I expected. Would you deliver 1,000 leaflets for around £45? These are my personal results from this test. Pay rates and results can vary depending on the job, company and location.

3 Hours on Uber Eats – What Did I Actually Make?

Featured

I tested Uber Eats for 3 hours in the UK. £38.70 earned sounds decent — but what is left after fuel, delivery insurance and estimated car costs?

I spent 3 hours doing ONLY Uber Eats to see what the real profit looks like after expenses. MY RESULTS: 💰 Total earnings: £38.70 📦 Deliveries completed: 7 🚗 Total distance driven: 40.5 miles ⏱️ Challenge time: 3 hours 💷 Gross earnings per hour: £12.90 ESTIMATED EXPENSES: ⛽ Fuel: approximately £6.01 🛡️ Delivery insurance: £3.00 (£1 per hour) 🚗 Vehicle costs: £6.08 (estimated at £0.15 per mile for tyres, servicing, depreciation and other running costs) Total estimated expenses: £15.09 ESTIMATED PROFIT: £38.70 - £15.09 = £23.61 That works out at approximately £7.87 profit per hour. The interesting part is the difference between what the delivery app shows you and what you may actually keep after the costs of using your own car. These figures are based on my own test and estimated costs. Your earnings and expenses will vary depending on location, demand, vehicle, insurance, fuel prices and the orders you accept. I'm testing side hustles myself and sharing the real results on GrabFinds.
