  • Hello,

    This is my first post after yet another sleepless night and finally deciding to do something about it! No, not lavender baths, going to face up and sort out my debt. Been lurking for ages, love this forum and want to get involved.

    Can I please try for £5 a day.

    I'll add it to my signature.

    I'm getting there, a couple of tough days with next to nothing and high spending but I have been doing some clicks and got £20 for adding another person to my car share. I have yet to add up my total but I thing I am well on track for my £5 perday and if I get my act together I can maybe even reach £10.

    I'm all excited again!

    45p from Quidco has gone in to my account today so I have amended my total accordingly - not much but every little helps!

    Grrrr I am so annoyed at myself, I did not get anything to list on eBay last night :mad:

    I really need to get going on this, I have some books on Green Met but I need to get loads more on there really to maximise any chance of selling any :rolleyes:

    Well done Moneypooh, thats a great result from Quidco and well done for eBay listings!

    Hi Guys,

    Updated my signature - looks like I'm bang on target (or only just holding my head up....). Sold something an e bay that I had listed for 1.99 and it went for 16 squid! Had half a dozen things running out last night and there wasn't a squeek of interest - I reckon it is the time of the year, something in the water, etc.

    Enjoying reading the posts, seeing how everyone else is getting on and (unashamedly) picking up tips on what to do - thanks everyone

    Hey folks!

    Well my ebay item is ending today and is so far up to £10.50, but I am still hoping for a last minute flurry to bring it past £20!!

    I had another item on there which apparently contravened their Drug and Drug paraphernalia prohibited list! :eek: It was a selection of meal replacement packs that I no longer needed!! I bloomin well got an immediate offer for them too!! :mad:

    Anyhoo! Nothing as yet apart from ym £5 saving from my lunch budget! My weekly shop was almost £20 under budget but I may need to do top ups later so won't add it in yet.
