*NEW* Thrifty Gifty - Money Making for Christmas & Occasions 2010

on the scarce £1 to £20 challenge I have made a measly start and bought a childs coat for 40p and sold it for £3.50 on ebay, making a clear profit of £2.47 with postage and all the fees.
so have £3.47 to play with now. I can only really spend it in one charity shop here that is cheap enough as the other are almost shop prices.
sold a couple of things on ebay making a clear profit of just £5.62 in total, not much but it all mounts up doesnt it?? Have put a load on making the most of the free listings over the weekend
Have really slacked on dooyoo lately, one review in about a week is awful when I was doing at least one a day and it will only get worse when I start doing my sage course and revising for the exam

Hiya Pammy - when does your course start? I bet you can't wait. I retrained 12 years ago now. It was hard trying to fit in work, family and studying but it was worth it in the end. I :heartpuls M.S.E.

I have decided to teach myself for this level I am doing and do a few mock exams to see how I am getting on, plus I have found a forum for bookkeepers in case I need to ask any questions as they are a really helpful bunch.
What did you retrain as?MPs left feb '08 276- Dec 13 36 :T MB Jan 10 ~ £82,377 Dec 13 ~ £29987

You're welcome to anytime-think it would do me good! Passed my 1st exam in Dec after a few weeks of frantic learning but felt a bit more like luck than judgement! Am now trying to make myself learn stuff for assignments to complete level 1 but am doing course by distance learning and I find it so hard to motivate myself when I get home from work!aah scooby i might be testing your knowledge then haha! i'm only on level 2 comp ICB so not at AAT standard quite yet!
Hope you're more disciplined! :rotfl::eek:CCs[STRIKE] £46287.82[/STRIKE] £40071.74 13% DFD Feb17nowNov[STRIKE]16[/STRIKE]15 ODsRBS £425, A/L £2500
