If you had a £10 how much could you make?

Our Woolies didn't have too many bargains other than clothes, most things only had 10 - 20% off. Which is ok is good but not worth spending 2 hours in a queue to be served :eek:

thanks guys looks like there will be enough of us to start on the 1 st jan!!

Yuo can go what you like with the £10 and any extra you make you can split is save it spend it etc!

Our next usually has a fab sale on boxing day so that might help me

sounds good. the way i usually do it is start with the £10 or whatever stake, make the money back plus more. The £10 is banked out the way and you go forward with the extra money you have made, so even if you lose money in the long run you are no worse off.

That's a really good idea :T

well if you had £10 and spent it on craft materials/equipment and made products that could sell for £20, maybe something simple to tart like cards. then invest the money again, and make something more involved that will generate more profit, and so on.

I would split the extras up into as many different things as I can and make money that way.

Yes please count me in. For the first time in over forty years I am in funds this Christmas. All presents got, food in (apart from a few fresh bits) and a tenner to call my own.

Best wishes to all for Christmas and many thanks for all the advice and help over the last year

Go on then, I will join another challenge. Like the idea. Its a bit like that book "one red paperclip" where the guy traded a paperclip for things better until he eventually got a house.
Count me in from Jan 1st too, just need thinking cap on now.
