Making the bed isn't everyone's favourite chore, but what if we told you could get paid to do this every day for an entire month?
Jewellery brand Shane Co. has launched a bed-making contest where they'll hand one lucky person £793 ($1,000), and all they'll need to do is make the bed for 30 days straight.
The brand has said it believes in "starting your day with intention," and noted how studies have shown simple acts of bed-making can reduce stress, and streamline your morning.
“What’s more intentional than taking a moment to create a space that sparks joy, organization, and maybe even a sprinkle of adulting?” their announcement for the competition reads.

In particular, they are looking for entrants who aren’t regular bed-makers to document how completing this routine impacts their productivity and general day-to-day life - this can be via notes or a vlog.
(Though regular bedmakers can also enter too.)
Once the participant completes this month-long challenge, they will be receive their financial reward.
