MARCH make £10 a day challenge

sallymander

Hi all,

nothing again for me today... boo.... but i did pass my work assesment which was good.

Purpleroses ..... do magazines sell well on eBay? I've got some old interior design/ house and home style ones that i was just going to recycle?

Also please excuse my ignorance but what are luncheon vouchers? and are they easy to sell / is there much market for them?

many thanks

Luncheon vouchers can be used for:
waitrose, Starbucks, KFC, Cafe Uno, sainsburys, Eat, Bella Italia, Nandos, Boots, Garfunkels, Morrisons, McDonalds, Tesco, Burger king, Pret a Manger, Coffee Republic, Iceland, Yates, Asda, Greggs, Bagel factory, Wetherspoons plus others such as M&S, BHS and Somerfield

With all those and more to choose from I can imagine there would be a good market for them but as long as you shop in a supermarket you could use them off your shopping

umm i've been able to sell quite a few. I was going to recycle the ones i've listed just now but though it's worth a go as it's free to list at 99p now and if they don't then they're off and i haven't lost any money!

Can someone pass me the smelling salts, I have had an awful shock:eek: I don't think that I should post my savings on here not after tonight anyway:eek: A friend's husband mentioned that there was an auction on tonight of some stuff - a lot from a wedding shop, so muggins decided to persuade friend to driver her to the auction (i can't see to drive in the dark) so I had a mooch about and espied 3 boxes of stuff - now I just thought they contained petticoats and veils which I could easily flog on ebay, I put in a bid on one box and got it for £18 and then I was asked if I wanted all 3 boxes so I said yes, so they charged me £18 for each box and then I had a buyers premium to pay and vat - so I spent £71.43, I have just gone through the box (we had to stuff everything else loose in the boot and then bag it into bin bags to get it up the stairs) and the bags and although somethings were not priced, I managed to save wait for it £14634.85 (once I have worked out the prices of the unpriced items I think I will have saved around about £15000:eek: Now I just need to sell it all:rolleyes:

I got up this morning thinking it was all a dream and everything is still in the lounge:eek: Tbh I don't even know what some of the things are because I don't hang about in wedding shops that often. I do know that I have 4 gowns but one has an oily mark on the front but it cannot be steamed so I am stumped on that one.

I need to sort everything out and box it the best I can - suppose I had better go and get some acid free tissue paper:rolleyes: I will also speak to a friend who runs a couture shop as I am hoping that she will be able to help me sell the stuff - some is too good for ebay. I wasn't expecting the amount of stuff that I got so today I am going to be really busy - writing a profile for the product launch job, shopping for tissue paper, drycleaning and boxing things up and photographing them.

Jesa - send me a PM with your size and what you are looking for and I will see what I have.

I won't add the savings to my total either because I just wanted to share as I am in total shock (thanks for the smelling salts Purple - they stink:rotfl: ).
