    Morning all.

    About to go and read the last few pages so not caught up with the mornings events yet!

    But need some quick help please.

    Someone has asked about the 'Physical Size' of some jars I am ebaying....what do they mean? I have already answered a different question with the diameter and height measurements. Do they mean capacity it holds do you think?

    Thanks all......now going to have a read through!

    A good day for all today me thinks!!! :)

    If you have already quoted dimensions, then they are probably talking about capacity...so id answer by pointing them politley in the directions of the jars in your ad, and if you know give them the capacity. If your not sure, but they are jars youve collected from other things youve bought (eg mint sauce jar or whatever) then try going to an online shopping site like asda (other online supermarkets are available ;) lol ) and they usuallysay in desc of the product how many ml the jar contains.

    Well, I don't seem to have achieved much this week apart from listing some items on ebay.

    The good news however is that i have a fortnight off work as of saturday morning and when i go back i will be working days (not nights!!) so will hopefully have more time to make my millions :rotfl:!!

    Morning sock sniffers!

    I had a look on ebay last night and one girl is selling well worn tights! One pair went for £21! She does photograph herself in them though, wouldn't want to do that!

    Anyway, both my items i bought in the argos clearance have sold! One I bought for £11.99 and sold for £20. The other one was only £2 as i had a £5 voucher as well and I sold it for £12. Not massive but it is all adding up.

    Think I might actually withdraw some money from paypal!:)

    Haha I was just coming on to say that id put tights on eBay to see how much they go for. Hehe.

    Word of warning, if paypal deem your listing to be 'of an adult nature' they wont allow you to withdraw the money!

    Off the subject of socks, but keeping with the feet - i've decided to sign up as a Barefoot Books Ambassador. I know someone earlier in this thread recommended it. Has anyone found they've made much from this? Do you actually have to buy a load of stock up front and then sell it on? How would you work out what to sell for etc or is this done for you? Sorry these are pretty basic questions but i've not got any experience of selling whatsoever and don't know how these schemes work. Thank you xx
    Just £10,852.28p to go...

    :D

    Trust that little voice in your head that says "Wouldn't it be interesting if...";
    And then do it.

    Did anyone see the Grabbit for the Lindam baby monitor? Went hurrying off to my Boots store for opening time and they didn't sell it...
    have had fun round the charity shops, got a couple of little boxes for 20p I'm going to decoupage today with the little ones, plus a couple of cross stitch kits and an ornament. Then I went past another shoe shop and they had some MBT trainers for £40!!!! Ebay here I come :)

    I'm quite scared of the Grabbit board. It may be useful but some people just get soooo aggresive and uneccessarily angry especially if somethings OOS before they get there. I did get some of the £1 Littlewoods jeans though, holding onto them for a bit since eBay is flooded with them atm plus some of them are the size i want to be so there currently my thin-spiration jeans :o

    I've still not dared to brave the charity shops yet and for saying I volunteered in one once I have literally no excuse! :eek:
