    Good luck with new baby 6969annw! And the challenge too!

    Is it cheating that the Ebay stuff I have on already I'm going to pool into Augusts total?! Hope not as I'm scared that this month's success was beginners luck!

    Thats not cheating as you will be getting the money during August for those items. I listed items in July ready for this months challenge and I will list more throughout the month too

    Hello everyone, anyone know how long bing0port redeems take? I put in for an Amazon voucher.

    You should have had that by now Estella - they are all done on a Thursday. Check your spam filter in case its gone in there. You should get one email confirming the redeem and one with the voucher code. If they are not there check your profile page to see if its still showing there or if you have the points back instead. If you are still not sure ask one of the room monitors in bingo to help you

    I've been a bit absent of late due to losing job and finding it hard to motivate myself, it did give me time to car boot a little bit tho last month... In case anyone might find this useful or give them some ideas for how to raise their totals here's how I did it last month...
    1. £4.19 Music Magpie
    2. £5.00 did a sewing job for friend of a friend
    3. £35 teaching karate to hairdressers son (random i know!)
    4. £40 profit on selling karate kit
    5. Approx £40 on ebay - am a nightmare at keeping track exactly on how much i have to take off for fees/paypal/postage :eek:
    6. £50 personal training a friend (very reduced rates and she insisted although still makes me feel a little bit bad)
    7. £5 win on thunderball
    8. £3 paypal converted voucher from surveys
    9. Pennies/5p pot cashed in for £26
    10. Car boot £65
    11. Sale on Friday ads £10
    12. £65 "goodwill gesture" from black horse bank for excessive charges using martins letter template (with extra line about being a customer since I was ten!!)
    I am owed some cash from a colleague whose karate classes I taught but he is notoriously bad at paying!! :mad: £40 when I get it!!! Might be able to add that to Septembers if I'm lucky!
    I have also saved money with coupons, had freebies delivered from dove, bodyform and others. Made home-made gifts for friends b'days and one having a baby...

    Hope that helps someone a little bit :rolleyes:

    Oh yeah and sign me up again - now I have no job I really need to make a minimum of £10 per day!!!
