    Im thinking about making jams and chutneys, does anyone know what the rules are around selling at carboots? Also if anyone knows where I can get some jam jars and lids and things I would be eternally grateful! xx

    Ps. I had one sale on amazon today, another £3.50 to add to the pot wahay!

    I bought my jam jars and lids on ebay from a seller called emetpack. I got 100 jars and lids (pint jars) for about £33 including the shipping which took two days. I have ordered more than once and have never been dissapointed in them. They are fantastic and would buy from again. I hope this helps!

    Wow really! :DThank you I'm really impressed by that today is the first day I've written 5 reviews. Is there a limit to how many you can read and review a day do you know how much you get paid for that part?

    You don't get paid for reading as such, you get 15 miles (1.5p) for each member read that you receive. The more you read and rate others, the more people will rate you so it is worth spending time reading reviews on the site. It also helps to give you an idea of what makes a good review too.

    The best reviews each week are awarded a crown which is worth an extra 1500 points (£1.50) so that is something to aim for too! :)

    There's no limit to how many you can read but you are limited to writing 5 reviews in a 24 hour period until you stop being a 'New Member', which is about a month.

  • Ooh I'm sat here eating a large toblerone bar and i just thought for those of you that make your own bath bombs could you make a toblerone shaped one - one triangle is a baths worth then next christmas people would think they had a yummy toblerone but in fact find lots of portions of bath fizzers

    I've hit a motivational low spot today.

    Guess its the snow outside and the fact that I've had very few nibbles on my ebay listings so far and the time to think about it as I've not gotten into work today :rolleyes:

    See how things are tomorrow. I've come accrossllots of things that I can sell and have a reasonable knowledge about but don't really want my folks knowing I know stuff about :rotfl: (in no way connected with anything illegal I hasten to point out :A) Living with my folks at the mo is a pain in the bum!

    Maybe they will have to waitl a few months :confused:
    Proud of who, and what, I am. :female::male:

    we all do, on a regualr basis:rotfl: some more than others...

    someone on another forum told me to have a 'dream book' to go with my daydream fund....

    basically what you are trying to save up for, put pictures or newspaper cuttings etc into a scrapbook, and look at it every day or when you get low, or even stick things on the fridge.... at the end of your bed, on your wardrobe door, basically anywhere....

    If you want the money to pay some bills off, put a pictures of credit cards everywhere, etc..


    honestly it does work....

    you'll feel better tomorrorw - i felt like that earlier in the week - really jaded with it but the £10k wont appear itself. Can you not explain your ebaying as needing to have a really good clear out before you move out??

    i've just upped my listings to 26 - not high value and some at 30 day listings, but wish i'd bought those soap & glory hat boxes @ £25 see some are going on ebay for nearer £40, missed the boat on that one! even the empty boxes are selling for over £5. think i'll have a mooch round the charity shops tomorrow - there was one that used to have a january sale - everything for a pound, hopefully they still do. Should really get rid of the stuff thats clogging up the place but like new things - hence the mess i'm in:rolleyes:
