  • Anyone that's interested in selling their pongy footwear, but worried about handling it themselves (the sale, not the shoes ...), hang on to them. I'm putting a page on my website for this, and will happily add anyone's smelly shoes ... for a small commission, of course :) I will handle communication, I know how to deal with such people so it doesn't bother me. When I've worked out the logistics, I'll let you all know.

    Theres something else going on there.... why else would she give her email address in the listing??? I think there is a bit of webcam work going on maybe?? BE Prepared ladies!

    well a few sales on ebay today so I;m happy.... not a lot but its pennies coming in.....

    I;m going to do carboots in the spring selling plants with a friend, she used to do it a few years ago and regularly took £80 ish a week! I reckon if we do it together and split the difference.... I will grow some stuff and she will grow others to try and spread the work, and it will be a bit more of a giggle if there is two of us!!

    I;m just about to upload a few listings to ebay now..... Not shoes mind!!

    I've got two items selling on ebay tonight and one sold overnight last night which is good. No big money but I am decluttering my house slowly so all is good.

    My weekly commitments for next week will be
    - write 7 dooyoo reviews (and post over to Ciao)
    - update blogs at least three times (on both blogs)
    - update website some more
    - make some stock for impending jewellery website
    - find five new things around the house for Ebay
    - list some larger toys on Netmums / freeads etc

    I have the week off so should be achievable. Hales I will PM you these too.

    sod credibility I'm skint lmao!!! what about I Love well Worn slippers tshirts? could give them away with every purchase ;-)

    Not sure about Tshirts ,there are quite a few companies local to me where you can have whatever you want printed and they have huge machines etc. Suppose it would depend if you could come up with a good slogan that catches on ?

    Good idea:rotfl: heres one

    Mambury-I went to Tiverton-it said on the internet that the carboot was on every Sunday in the Market but there was nobody there! It did say all year round....Oh well at least it got me out of the house!

    OH has just refused to let me use his account so there goes that idea-until Amber gets set up anyway.
