Put me down for £5 again please. Managed £114 in Jan which while not on target is a massive help!
You guys doing £20 per day how do you do it?!

Don't know about everyone else, but half of my £20 a day comes from my second job. I used to do £10 a day by selling on ebay and Amazon, boot fairs in the summer, survey sites, the usual stuff. Took on second job in September, waitressing three nights a week, usually take home about £300 a month, plus tips.
Would never have taken the job on without the motivation of this challenge.
It is exhausting as I finish day job at 5.30 and start evening job at 6 o'clock. The good thing is, all the time I'm at work I'm not out spending money!Married 19th May 2011 to the love of my lifeCross Stitch Cafe Member Number 44CSC Challenge - to complete LEGS by end of December

Made £38 on an eBay sale after fees and earned £3 on AQA. Had aimed to do a minimum of £5 per day but my ironing needed to be done and the bathrooms cleaned.
Have listed a baby's snowsuit on eBay but didn't get a chance to list the re-usable nappies. Will try again tonight. Also have some handmade toys to sell. Figured that these may stand out better.
Has anyone sold baby clothes on eBay? How well do they sell? Do you sell in batches or individual items?Mummy to DS May 08 and DD Oct 09

I recently signed up to take a break bingo so that i could take advantage of their free daily scratchcard. I withdrew the initial £10 and have now been waiting 3 weeks for it so i sent an email to the support peeps. I today got an email from [EMAIL="kate@email.takeabreakbingolounge.co.uk"]kate@email.takeabreakbingolounge.co.uk[/EMAIL] asking me for all sorts of information such as scans of my passport and credit card numbers to "verify my identity". Are they serious?? or do you think this could be a scam.

Sold another book on Amazon today so £2.82 for me. Am a bit miffed though cos it was up for sale at £10 but by the time I paid fees and postage (£6.85!!!!!!!) didnt leave much. There must be a cheaper alternative to the post office parcel post, I suppose there is probably a selling on Amazon discussion thread or something on MSE.
Anyway only £2.82 for me today.Home is the nicest word there is- Laura Ingalls WilderMortgage Dec23 £97,696 Overpayments: Dec23 £500
