    Morning everyone,I've had a great few days selling and winning on BB including £100.00 last night,but as I've attempted to withdraw cash,I have to leave it another 72 hours :mad:

    Well today I'm listing (again).........! The pot is simmering at present,I've only spent £25.00 at the moment and I'm past the £500.00 mark (but that is due to selling old bits too ;)

    Remember,there are no rules at all

    I have mentioned that I want to cut the weekly shopping by at least £20.00 per week.I will do this,and that WILL be another £1040.00 in the pot by the end of this year !

    I still can't believe it's 2010,you are all doing fantastic,keep at it,keep focused,believe in YOU.

    We are all in this together,so lets help each other.

    AS a New Year Gift to all of you I'm going to GIVE you all some great information.

    No doubt this will be sold on Ebay,but here goes.

    Many times a year there are trade fairs around the UK and the world.There is one in Exeter from the 17th of this month.You can register online if you are a business for FREE tickets.

    What you can also do is look through the exibitors lists,most of these have websites,so you can see what and how much you can purchase items for.

    Here is the link for the list

    These people do not run any type of affiliate programme,so I believe I'm okay to post this link,it is also available by searching for event organisers......as you can do yourselves and get more of these events and lists for FREE.

    Here is the link for the Exeter gift fair,very interesting reading.

    Remember,unless these products are made by these exibitors,they have had to source them either by agents,by contacting manufactures,by purchasing directly from China,Hong Kong wherever.

    These lists will inspire you to your own ideas,use them wisely.If you see this info for sale on Ebay,report it,as it is copyright infringement of THIS site.Plus as MSE we do not want people getting charged for it when it is openly free information.

    When you are all millionaires,please do not forget me,as I've not forgotten you lot !:T:T:T


    Just bumping this-again -for those who may have missed it :T:T:T

    Ok I'v made a start, albeit a bit jammy!!! I was going to start listing a few bits on ebay, checked my Paypal account and there's £26.61 sitting there! Then had a message from Amazon to say a dvd I listed ages ago, forgot it was here has sold, so another £3.65. Finally I've sold a pair of curtains I had in a cupboard to my brother for £30! In all honesty I probably could have got more for them if I'd sold them elsewhere but it saves m sme work and he's pretty hard-up too. Had tto get something for them though as they're brand new, not been out of the pack and cost about £150 new!!

    Anyway that's £60.26 towards my £10K in just 3 days! Time to start some listing now!

    Woohoo!!!

    £70 winging it's way to me from Quidco( to e-on, limited offer apparently but who knows). Decided to switch gas/elec. Allegedly I will also save about £30 a year on fuel charges but won't be counting that. Will amend sig once funds have tracked

    thats 14 new listings on ebay tonight, wish i'd discovered turbo lister months ago, will tb list throughout the week, 5 or 10 mins here and there, ready for download next weekend, recommend especially if you dont have much time in one go to list, took me 20 mins to list the 14 items and at least they will all start and finish at the same time giving me time to get things ready for the post office in one go rther than bits and pieces throughout the week.

    I have found a good wholesale deal with great potential profit but not sure whether to spend out! What if people dont want it!

    Would be for a bootsale and even if i just sell the item for £1 i could make profit but still unsure...

    Might just go for it!

    In other news I listed 27 items on eBay and currently have £12 worth of bids so far so thats a good start

    Also put £100 from my piggy bank into an official savings so have included that in my total
