Thrifty Gifty - Money Making for Christmas & All Ocassions 2009

orchid-96

Hi all, don't know if its worth mentioning on here but if any of you watch or buy from create and craft, they are doing a special offer for a week on their club membership (usually £20) at £10 and you get the £10 credited back to your account to spend (so sort of free really) membership gives you 10% off everything - I am going to do it to try it for a year...

Just thought I would mention it..

Need to sort out some stuff today to ebay...mum2one well done on your stuff, don't you just love it when it goes your way :j

I've just scheduled another 8 items to go on tonight - I soooo love Auctiva it makes listing so much easier .

OH has just said I can buy the rubber stamps I've been lusting over (they are on offer) - think so papers might also drop into my basket

Still not signed up to Quidco xD I got distracted. Ciao is surprisingly good for distracting me! Anyone else go on there?

Announcement: ‘Thrifty Gifty Update’ day will be held monthly on the 1st of the month You can do updates whenever you want, but if you don’t manage to do it any other time, then try your very best to update us on points, cashback totals etc. on the 1st of each month.:)


Rufusdog –Wow you are doing well with your points sites! Well done you!
Focus888 – how is bingoports going for you?
S4arainday - is your engagement ring very beautiful? Congrats!
Orchid - Good luck with bingoports hope you are lucky! Has someone now referred you?

Mum2one - well done with onepoll, I keep forgetting to do it! Im on £23 and think we started at a similar time, oops! Your eBay sounds brilliant, how is the mr men books going? Good idea on the update about the clickys... I mainly do Quidco and don’t focus on the rest so not sure I could help! Actually I could keep an eye on Boots thread...
Paddington - does it cost extra to schedule your listings on eBay? Sounds like it is going well! £50 for Boots is good. I need to get my points up again, had about £150 last year for the sales
Hayley – How is your laptop?
Scatty - thanks for posting the link to the survey thing in Martin’s e-mail...I did think “how topical of him, must have been reading this thread LOL!” How are you feeling anyway?
Furrypig - How are you getting on with the eBay listings? Music Magpie, and I forget the name of the other one but I know Rusty knows ‘cos she told me about it Well done for the heating!
Choccy - How are you doing with the listing?

Azjh77 – Welcome to the thread!
FreebieRocker - Not sure on age limit on Quidco sorry

Don't worry about not being sure about Quidco's age limit. I've sort of half given up trying, to be honest. Just going to stick with what I've got as it seems to be doing okay Thanks anyway though!

jt - I've started using Auctiva and it does everything for free - templates up to 14 photos and most importantly scheduling. I was sat in Frankie & Benny's eating banana cheesecake while it did it all for me .

I don't think I really need any more Boots points as I have some stuff I bought there in the sales ready for this xmas. Really must sort out what I need to raise.

Just checked and tonight's item went for over £10 in the end - have 3 items to post tomorrow .

Will update my list with my totals tomorrow night as I'm far too full to do anything tonight

jamtart6

THANKS padster! gonna check it out!

Oona have listed SIX items all thanks to your mini challenge, i have put it off for so long as the sheer volume of stuff i have is huge...but doing it like this is so much better! thank you!! hope it sells now!

Thats a brilliant idea re Boots as any gd bargains, and I know its early but xmas when they do the shopping nights and esp Jan dor 50% +75% sale, I wondered in on 2nd day of the 75% off, wondered why Boots was busy!:T

Jamtart - ur a smart cookie, these music sites, I think I'd be showing my age....:cool:

Mega gd news re Little Miss Books, went for £21.00, (Id brought them on ebay for £5 +£5 postage) out of 26 listings sold 17,got few odd Mr Men books left, so job lot them, and 3swimsuits that didnt sell, but goods alone we made £50. Worked out well, as dd cost me £30 in Tesco, more clothes.......told her shes not allowed any more growth spurts till shes wore all her summer clothes!!:rotfl:

Roped mum into wrapping tomorrow.

Even did some more xmas shopping yesterday, did a m-shop at Mr Ts, so funny as I had to take a photograph of "the product on the shelf", just as I was photographing a member of staff walked past us, and stopped and stared in shock.

If you can imagine the scene in Tesco dad's holding my burberry handbag:p (just had to name drop (fake - got it in Tunisia)),I've got the camera round me neck, balanceing with crutches, :oafter we were spotted just aimed for the dr..... the looks were so funny, dad was holding on to my bag for grim death!! xx:eek:

My laptops all better now ta Jammy I've got a cool spreadsheet going now so i'll post an update on the 1st of the month.

I joined DooYoo today and I am hooked! I've got 5070 points, need 20,000 to get a £20 Amazon voucher so think i'm doing quite well! If I can try and get £20 a month i'll be laughing
