    Doesn't look like there is any way around that one HoleyPockets - they obviously planned for the case that someone might want to sell them on.

    oh well nevermind.
  • August didn't happen for me LOL. My computer has been on the blink for most of the month so no money making for me. September can only be better, although I am away on holiday for part of it :D

    Just sold some more stuff on Ebay, I took it to the post office to post it, only to find it was only 52p as it was a large letter under 100 grams, it actually weighed 75 grams,

    but I took 2 of the exact same items last week and was charged 78p which is for 101 to 250 grams, all the items were packed the same way and in the same padded envelopes,

    the only difference was the more expensive postage was when I used the larger heavier duty postage scales that are obviously not calibrated correctly, and the second cheaper postage was when I used the more accurate small packet scales, I overpaid by 38p for 2 parcels, so I am not best pleased, it is hard enough to make money on Ebay with out being over charged by Royal Mail.

    Well I've just earned £11 on cashbackkings and won at cafe bingo giving me a profit after my £10 stake of a further £54! £65 not bad. Plus I've doubled my lightspeed points and got some piggy points and some more ipoints. Not bad for a day off....

    £53 from ebay on a B.I.N i put up last night.

    sorry to hear bout the tickets holey. they really have covered everything so that you cant sell them. maybe call them and see if you can change the name on it to a "friend". doubt they would but worth a try as you've nowt to lose.
