The facebook group is where you can show what you are selling. They dont allow that on here.

An accountant pebblespop? Blimey. Hwo often do you get complete dimwits who have got into a pickle? I want to see an accountant but scared I'll be the only prat who has mucked things up

sparrer - you are doing great - dont beat yourself up. Its a great total !!

I've used 123 reg for just securing domain names, or MR SITE for the whole package

i don't work at an accountancy practise but i used to. loads of small businesses turn up at the end of the year with a carrier bag full of reciepts so i am sure they see everything!!

it's very expensive to see the accountants though - it shouldn't be too difficult to find free advice on the internet.

I use doyourownsite which is great if you want a shop attached (you don't have to). The domain and the hosting would be approx £100 per year.

deq123

I use mainly namecheap.com or godaddy.com usually around $10 for 1 year .com or .net domain (but google for discount codes).

heart.co.uk for co.uk domains

Hi,

Has anybody registered a domain name. The one I want is available, but I am not sure which company to go through. Have googled, but drowning in the choice.

Any recommendations.

Thanks as always.

just a thought.....if anyone has spare time you might wanna consider entering as many competitions as you can get your hands on from local papers especially....I subscribe to a comping mag and some of the stuff people win is nobodys business.....you may not be making money directly but if you have a nice win may get something you can sell on, a dishwasher, washing machine etc....is a nice little hobby for us bored housewives lolol...(just read the 'helpful' comments from what ever his name was.....what a sad & opinionated person zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz).

I do this sometimes Have never been that lucky tbh in the past - BUT in December i entered a competition and won the prize in January - sold it on ebay and am sitting on £8.50 after fees in my paypal account ! It was a beads storage tower - Wanted to keep it as its the first time I've ever won anything and i do want to get into collecting beads for jewellery blah blah - but glad i did it

Just updating listed 15 items yesterday and they are going ok.

Brought some clothes to sell on from a wholesaler and can't shift them - one one has sold or got any interest and I re-invested the money I raised in the beginning of Jan, so £233 down- will have to see if I can shift them on a car boot. I am going to stick to 2nd hand stuff and not go down the wholesale track - once bitten twice shy etc.

I have a few Sindys from when I was little and I was thinking of selling them, has anyone sold any dolls before? I really need to get things moving towards this new to me car.

The ideas that have sprung up on here are great, I wish I was arty and could make jewellery. I have tried a few times but got nowhere - has anyone tried that silver clay stuff - might ask for some of that for my birthday later on in the year.

i have won a few comps, no biggies yet but to date.....a weekend in Blackpool, £50 garden shop vouchers, whole range herbal essence shampoo/conditioner, whole range women's FCUK body products. Came 2nd in a tie break comp to win holiday to Hawaii (gutting but already been there so......), it is a good hobby though....local comps have less entries so good chance of winning and tie break ones or ones where you have to do something a bit unusual....also less entries...and you never know someone has to win....oh and I subscribe to National Lottery...£4 a month, won about £150 last year or so.

I've won a couple of small items in January, some mascara and fake tan. Still got them both though.

Thanks again for your responses. Fabulous suggestions.

Due to being an International Businesswoman (or bored housewife, depending on who's reading .... wouldn't we love to get the chance to be) I have been getting ebay feedback in different languages. I've just discovered google translate, it's my new toy .
