    I hope not BB, I cleared cookies only...
    JB, you're ace! I hope the hat makes you a packet :rotfl:
    Sorted my photo issue and now have a second item on Ebay :j I might see how these sell first and then add others (but prepare the listings this week). I'm confused by the 40p comment, was it Completely Lost?, it says it's costing me 10p?:confused:

    I signed up to ValuedOpinions today, not sure I can face going the survey route but we'll give it a go! Anything helpful to know peeps?EDIT: saying that, I have confirmation email through to complete my sign up, and I did it hours ago...?
    I've just helped a friend to sign up for theA&L account but cant refer him as I don;t have my own account details yet :rolleyes: If they come tomorrow I can refer my OH at least...
    Confession: I'm actually excited to know what your stuff sells for JB, especially the hat :o

  • another £20 on it's way to my bank - another bingo win! i'm enjoying bingo at the moment because i'm only signing up to sites that i can earn cashback from and i'm winning quite a bit at the moment - the key is to play when there aren't many other players - the prizes are lower, but you're more likely to win!

    i'm sure my luck will run out soon!

  • Hi everyone,

    so far I have made...

    £5.50 ebay (cheque received)

    £26.47 from quid Co

    £11.15 from cashback kings & just signed up for the A&L e- saver account which makes another £20.00 when that tracks.

    I am also tomorrow going to sign up for the £90.00 vodaphone 30 day monthly contract and use it for a week then give the 30 day notice..

    wow can't believe how quick its begining to all add up...:T
    Proud to be dealing with my debts!! One day at a time....:j:j

    £607.55/1000;);););)
    £67.55 Quidco
    £540.00 Overtime
  • longing to be debt free, is that £90 vodaphone thingy on topcashback? because i was considering doing that too, until i noticed that the cashback is subject to a 4 month validation period :(
  • Hi Becca2008,

    I have just been looking at it on quidco and your right they say that its four months what a pain, cashbackkings dont mention anything about there being a time limit.. I thought I was onto a good thing there.. Oh well ive got my £20.00 for opening my A&L Esaver account...

    I,ll just have to keep plodding until I see something else that comes up....

    :T :T :T

    Here you go, JB Happy.gif

    I got a lovely little 'flying frog' toy with my recent stationery order (via cashback) and it sold for £2.75 inc P&P on eBid. I've just listed my old desktop PC via freecycle, still no bids for the laptop and I have another desktop PC to list but think I'll try that on Gumtree as it isn't quite ready for the tip just yet.

    My box of 'stuff' is still sitting here waiting to get listed. :o

    i have brought a box of stuff, ready photographed, up onto the sofa with me so I have no excuses... but i keep getting distracted with my ending items & wrapping them up!

    i may venture onto ebid, did you say you dont pay until it sells? does stuff take long to shift or is it much the same as ebay?
