    I'm struggling to think of how to get money.

    I can't ebay because I can't use paypal. I do the surveys, etc but don't really want to count them unless I actually get the money/vouchers. Don't have spare things to sell because have just moved house and got rid of a lot.

    Hmm any new ideas?
    Just because you made a mistake doesn't mean you are a mistake.

    Some of the other auction sites? Not tried them myself but might be worth a go. Not trying to be nosey but what's the problem with Paypal - any way around it?

    Drea - have you done all the free bongo? Free cashback sign-ups on Quidco, making something to sell (although its taxable), offering to do extra work for family and friends (ironing and cleaning is always a good bet). Can't think of anything else just now but will rack my brains.

    When I used to work as a PA my boss was doing a qualification in something or other and was very slow at typing so I charged him per hour for typing up his essays (in my lunch break)
