    Picked up the bike I won in the Heinz competition today too so now need to sell it. Its worth £400 so what do you think is a fair price to ask for it?

    found 1p on the floor a few days ago, might as well start myself off with that lol

    Saved £3.24 on multi buy's at Asda

    Put bit's on ebay, one will sell, don't know about other 6 items yet, have to wait and see.

    Any idea's on what kind of packaging I can use for small cosmetics? I've got some small No7 cosmetics that came in a free bag which I wont use (I'm 23 and don't quite need the Protect & Perfect Anti Ageing serums just yet! :rotfl: ) But cant find any small envelopes to put them in.

    I would put them in a small box rather than an envelope to make sure they don't split and leak in the post. Something smaller than a shoe box I guess depending on size

    Congratulations! I would say it depends if you're selling it through 'free' means - if you are (ie not ebaying and paying fees) then start high if you're not in a rush to sell, otherwise you might kick yourself.

    I'm really chuffed with ebay this week, sold lots of odds and ends that I didn't think I would! Also finally got enough Ipsos points for a Dorothy P £10 voucher - cannot wait to give myself an MSE treat! Done 3 of this weeks 5 mystery shops... Yet can't count any of this until its in the hand (so to speak) so still on £0! :rotfl:

    did a mystery shop today which will give me £4....not much, but I got a free lunch out of it too, and it was only down the road from my office so no travel costs to deduct.

    I have another couple lined up for tomorrow - one telephone one, and one restaurant one which will give me free dinner plus drinks for two, but no "fee" so there won't be any real cash to count, sadly, although I will be happy enough to have free food!!

    Am I too late to join in for a fiver a day?

    1st May was my aha moment when I faced up to my parlous financial situation. I started looking for ways to make money there and then.

    I'm moving house at the moment so loads of stuff is going on Ebay. To be honest, I can't quite believe I

    a) bought this stuff

    and

    b) didn't sort it out and sell some of it earlier


    This money-saving stuff is addictive!


    I've signed up for a regime of daily clicks (thanks to Eager Learner!) but I'm not going to count that until I cash it out.

    So at the moment:

    £42 in EBay sales, so far.
    and I found 5 euros in an old wallet
    and have collect and bagged up £5 in 10 pence pieces

    1st May must have been one of those days. That was my "Lightbulb Moment" too.

    Good Luck with the money saving!:D
