    is it 'safe'?
    do you list them as £10 voucher worth £40?
    does the buyer tell you what deal they want and then you send them the end voucher?
    how much do they go for?
    and lastly should I put them on as one big batch or seperate into several smaller ones?

    thank for any info :D

    I always post by SD so insurance covers the vouchers and its the safest option.
    If selling unchanged the buyer will tell you what they want, then you just order those, more hassle though in my personal opinion.
    Paypal fees will be slightly more if done in batches but not much. your main risk would be a chargeback if done in 1 bulk order. Though they should still get roughly the same money.

    hi everyone,

    just been catching up

    all this engagement/wedding ring talk :-) my engagement ring wasn't expensive to say the least as we couldn't afford much at the time (and i come from a jewellery background), but i loved it and that's what matters. my wedding ring i actually bought back home when i went before we got married.

    elle - i didn't want a wedding where i was standing there for everyone to stare at, cue wedding in gretna green with hubby (of course), MIL and SIL oh and the registrar. my folks didn't come as it was short notice and a whole long long long way way.

    gutted about the BT monitor. i had been wanting to get one of these. i saw the post last night, saved the link and came back to see it had gone back up. i said to hubby about it and he said just get it. i'll hunt around and see what i can find.

    umm.. anyone for a poo story??? ... LO's are smelling of vinegar for some reason. trying to find our feet with food/milk in solving the reflux issue at night and LO seems to be preferring milk at present, but she did eat some lunch which was good. i think this is affecting her nappies

    You know me - always up for a good poo story!!

    Baby girl is still very much a baby and can still survive on a mainly milk diet if that is what she wants. If she is taking lots of milk I would just keep offering food but not stressing IYSWIM.

    How is the free high chair going?

    I have £800 in vouchers coming this month and when they are x4 they will be worth £3200. I will sell half of them and use the other half for christmas pressies and towards florida next year.

    I collect tesco points for a hobby, its not as easy as it was. I bought my Zafira with clubcard points last year :o which was worth £4400
