    You know sometimes it seems like RM are trying to get rid of the ebayers.......can't say i blame them really with the number of compensation claims they must be generating for non delivery :( what is the bet the proof of posting compensation option will be reviewed next! Maybe ebay will set up their own postal service soon as well LOL!

    anyway, i have £10.36 to add to the pot from late ebay payers, app trailers and survey site payout - can't remember which one now- hahaha

    todays plan is to see if i can get to cash out £25 via paypal from swaggers - not sure i can resist the temptation to go for AGC but am trying to talk myself into it :D

    Hi fellow moneysavers,

    Thanks Aesop for the heads-up on ebay free listing weekend, that's fab!

    Listed my double your money item last night and already a bid which puts me at a profit £2.50/bid for £4.00. Soooo relieved to finally be off the starting blocks.

    Tried to do some swagbucks last night but couldnt quality for any surveys and I just dont understand the tasks. Will have to have a look at the swagging thread. Watched a few trailers.
    Awaiting the last of my cashback to become payable so I can transfer it to bank account.

    Hope you're all having a good day!
