Crimbo crackers countdown

JesaRose

I had some good interest paid on my ISA this week and a few small ebay, amazon and play.com sales too

Do vouchers count? I use my ipoints etc for vouchers to use towards Christmas? Just wondering if I can include these in my total!

Boomdocker

I add vouchers in to my total if and when I get them. Its all an earning in one way or another. I also add interest on my accounts as again it all adds up.

Thanks Boomdocker, that means I am off the mark £10 Argos voucher and £10 John Lewis voucher received yesterday from Ipoints. Yay £20 down £1k+ to go!

I really can't count (may be thats why I'm in this mess:think:)

£1010 - £20 = £990 to go:D

Hiya!

My total is up to £335.54 now - mainly ebay, greenmetropolis and mazuma mobile. Starting to run out of things to sell now so will have to think of some other money making ideas! x

Hi everyone, I am only going to add the money once I have received it in my account. I have made £14 from book sales and £10 on bingo (free bingo :T). I have a cheque to come through from cds sold so will add that on once it has cleared. Also have listed items on ebay but after doing all the listing of 1 item it wasn't accepting it - after trying 3 times I decided to give up and will start this again either tomorrow or Wednesday depending on the time available. I also need to check the survey sites I'm signed up to and see if I can withdraw from any of these at the mo. Sounds like everyone else is doing well.

I don't know how to have a signature/footnote so I am at £24/£1010

DedicatedDFW

I think I now have my own signature! Am de-lighted :j. I also forgot to add I also have someone looking at a photo-printer so if that sells will be another £5 - fingers crossed.

I've got one bid on ebay for 99p for a shower thingy I never used. Jewelry not doing well at all at present.

Loads of skincare and cosmetics to list, a bit of furniture and some electrical items

Does anyone have any tips for selling cd's and where are the best places and what kind of prices to accept? I have a big bag full upstairs to sort out and I am sure about half can go no problems

Many thanks

gargrave - Think I'll work out how many steps it is to the area I'd like to buy a wee place and then break it down into pence needed per step - hee hee! I always count vouchers etc when I get them in my hand some folks count them when spent the choice is yours.

fedupandskint - Your items sound like mine when I did my first carbooty - skincare, cosmetics unsued and jewellery. If I remember rightly I did 2 that weekend and made £180, but I def undercharge because I like to sell off as much as I can - its cleansing. This might be a good way to sell your stuff. Sometimes you get dealers wanting jewellery, regulars at carboot helped us out by telling us that a specific person was a dealer and not to let items go too cheaply to them.
