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

hlcarroll

oh trust me, i wanted to elysia, but OH insisted that it had to be parked up! I'm now home with a nice cup of tea, but minus a car, which is still on the bridge! Had to get my stepdad to pick us up bless him! Hopefully my cousin will be able to tow it tomorro, but i doubt it to be honest!
Oh and well done hun, you're doing brilliantly, everyone is!
Ive managed £50 or so, sold a dining table in local paper for £45(was in the celler when we moved in, and landlord said we could get rid of it!) so not bad!

I'm going to continue trying to take part in this challenge but my prioritise have changed - my washing machine needs replacing & my friend has announced her engagement and is getting married in December!!!! All adding to costs this year that I was hoping to keep to a minimum!

god tell me about it my friend asked me to be her maid of honour, dress etc is paid for by her but obviously ill have to help out with little bits like the hen do...small things yes but i tend to go overboard. it is her wedding afterall i dont want to scrooge out but will have to just keep things to a minimum and bargain hunt.

however i have set a date for my first avon party in a few weeks. this one is fam and friends to warm me up and let me practice but hopefully it will help me get confidence and figure out if im missing any samples etc so i can do a customer party a few weeks after. so fingers crossed both parties get me a bit of extra money, devised a raffle and bargain box for extra pennies on the day and hopefully i could get some extra customers if they bring friends etc.

well...ebay has 3 items listed lol mums bringing the rest over later this week and im cracking on with dooyoo. just running out of things to review lol

Hi Jammy, I have done £20 on Dooyoo. Haven't done any selling on Ebay this time as not a lot left to sell.

Hiya Rufus - thankyou for rating some of my reviews today.

I can't understand how I managed to miss you from my cof - I apologise. *blushes*

Your reviews are brilliant - how do you manage it? I really struggle finding anything I like/hate enough to talk about for any length.

I dont understand how people can review loads and loads of things and they dont rate you back. some are terrible and I have stopped wasting my time rating theres now. Maybe not the rules but thought it was a community over there also.

I am running out of things I know about also elysia2003. actually I cant believe there are so many LUSH things, they are driving me mad now reading about them all!!

Oooo are we allowed to say who we are on DooYoo? I'm happy to pop up my username if so... if anyone would be happy to be associtaed with me that is :rotfl:

On a plus note after GumTree'ing a few items yesterda I've already sold one bit for £10 tonight, yay! That's a bit more loft space back, woo hoo!

pammyj74

is gumtree better than ebay, I imagine it doesnt get the same amount of people on there?

Hiya

It's the first time I've used GumTree, so I'm not sure yet but the items I have are fairly large (baby walkers, a travel system) and I though the postage would put people off and as Gumtree appears to be a location based free online classified website, I thought I'd give it a whirl :beer:
