    Hi to all the newbies on the thread :hello:

    Good luck to everyone for August. Reading through the posts, it seems like we all felt like we could have done better in July. (me especially!) So let's all get cracking with the August challenge!

    OK Ideas for getting cracking. I'm hoping to get stuck in to slice the pie and daily clicks. I will be using my next store card as motivation. It has around £600 outstanding and if I make my £5 a day target I will be able to clear 25% of that which is a phenomonal percentage.

  • Hi
    Can you stick me down for £5 a day again, I managed to beat it in July but didn't quite hit the dizzy heights of £10 a day. Thanks

    Hi all
    Can you put me down for £10 pd in August please? Last moth was the first month for me & did OK - I just need the kick kick kick as a motivation. All my ebay sales finished last night & it was great to transfer £170 to my b/a. Will keep updating my July total but not got anything on eBay so it will only be website sales, if any...

    Please put me down for £5 again for August - I'll almost make it for July and so I think I'll give £5 a day another go in August to see if I can crack it.

    I'm away for 5 days this month so I'm aiming for £130 in total.

    Did a MS today which I hope to be paid for at the end of August so that'll be a start and as it's the end of the Olympic Challenge next week I'll be counting my 'money I've found on the street etc' piggy so that'll be a little bit to add too I hope ;)

    But back to trying to find my last £25 for July :p

    First attempt at this and go on hol this month but better starting now than procastinating further. £5 per day for me please.

    Just registered and listed load of books on green metropolis, going to register for slice of the pie later and then planning a clear-out and ebay frenzy for this weekend as part of packing for holiday. Any other good ideas?
    Make £5 per day in August= £100/£155
    Paid MS- £5+ £10 GR, £5 RE, £15 MS
    £65 ebay profit
    Waiting on payment- E160 BAI
