    Whew! Just had my eBay items finish. And a couple went for more than I was expecting. They take me over my target (assuming everyone pays up before August).

    Overall I have:

    £118 from eBay
    £10 from Littlewoods scratch / bingo
    £35 from Virgin scratch / bingo (had a lucky day on the freebies)

    Takes me to £163 when I aimed for £155. Yay! Feeling happy with this.

    Planning for August: I might try for £6 a day (total £186). Eeek. So little compared to what some of you are managing, but I think I'll give it a go! Need to get eBaying from the 1st day of August though.

    Four sold, three paid already giving me £18.57 profit, might try re-listing some of the non-sellers on bins, will see how I'm feeling tomorrow cause right now I'm not that great (currently pigging out on chocolate and fizzy juice - not good when you're trying to lose weight :rolleyes:)

    Anyhoo, that's now added to my total.

    Edit: Scrub the £18.57 profit, my biggest selling item has just been removed as apparently it was a hacked account - awesome. It also had 9 watchers on it and now I've lost the whole bl00dy thing and can't even do a 2nd chance offer since it was a removed item and have to do the whole listing write up again.

    that sucks about the ebay thing, its really annoying when that happens!! hope the relisting goes well for you.

    we for me, I just won £11.47 on the take a break bingo thing, with my scratchcard winnings that are bonus balance rather than actual money!! Just waiting for the £10 to clear but its normally pretty quick so I will add it now (and I want it on by the end of the month lol)

    none of my mystery shops are paying this month but at least I know Im on my way to my target for next cos theres about £50 due!!!

    and I have some ebay items finishing tomorrow, most have bids already so its pretty ecxiting!!

    anyway, off to update my sig!!

    Wasn't doing very well until I went to buy some lights from a DIY shop, they had messed up on the pricing on the shelves & I got the lights £16.00 cheaper. (They soon took down the wrong signs in the shop as I was leaving!). Just a few more daily clicks to add too.
    £5 a day in August £170.50/£155

    I never thought of selling videos on Amazon. I have about 100 in boxes, loads of Disney ones so maybe I should give thm a try on Amazon. Still haven't sold any books in over a week.
