  • Hello all :j

    Since my last post I have been lurking from time to time to see how everyone is doing, while sorting out stuff at home :p
    So - I have joined Quidco (I know, I should have done this eons ago!!!) and through them have already earned £93 plus approx £30 a month for gas / electric and £20 a month for broadband (going down to £10 a month saving in 6 months). I think this equates to £633 for the year so far so will add that to my earnings, however I think I am going to seperate my savings from my 10k earnings and just see how much I can save while making my 10k this year (will be going for 20k next year - this s a practice run lol :rotfl:)

    Have now got a huge box of items for ebay which does not yet include my books (I have hundreds of books! Need to sell some!) and will get listing them this week.

    Have also joined Dooyoo and reveiwed a few things today - loads more fun than I thought it would be - obviously I like to give my opinion on things!!! :rotfl:

    Everyone has been inspiring, as usual, so will be keeping my beady eyes on the thread and getting inspiration from you guys. I think everyone is doing really well, and for those who don't know what to do, read the thread from the start (although it seems that will be a mammoth task!!!!) as there are loads of really fab suggestions and ideas :D

    So ends my essay x :p

    Please can I join too? I've been lurking but would really like to join the ranks as I have a good feeling about this. I've always thought I had the potential to make money but could never be bothered before.

    We started seven years ago with nothing and since then have gained two children so unfortunately not alot to sell on although I have listed my broken camera on e-bay :).

    I will be starting very slowly but hopefully gaining steadily and speedily. I have set myself a personal target of £50 a month as this is realistically achievable. When that first £50 comes in if it doesn't get swallowed immediately then I'll re-invest.
    At the moment I have one digital camera which is worthless, trust me I have checked! But, it still works and would be good for someone who just wants a camera to take pictures for ebay. Happy to send it on to a new home!

    I'm sorry, I had to skip a few pages but if it hasn't been mentioned yet have you got a freecycle (or similar) yahoo group near you? I know a working camera would get snatched up quickly on ours. Or how about a Friday Ad or other local paper?

    Ok sign me up please! :D

    I have no idea how I'm going to do this yet but I should give it a go.

    I've been thinking about how to make some money from students as I'm at uni at the moment... mature student at 28 but apparently pass for 20 :cool: so I can pretend I'm young and hip with them :rolleyes:

    Still thinking at the moment... any suggestions?


    Out of my mind. Back in five minutes.

    Hi :)

    I've thought about it but not sure how to go about it really. I've seen the odd thread on here about tutoring but I'm not sure if it's for me :think:

    Did another couple of reviews on dooyoo today and withdrew £10 from chitchatbingo. I also got a £5 Amazon voucher from bingoport a week ago and have redeemed another £10 worth this week, but I'll wait until I get them before adding them to my total.

    Very impressed with the amount of money people are making. Keep up the good work :j
