From Trash to Cash: the £100 to 10K Dribble thread

munchki

wayne have you thought about just going out to a shop and buying maybe just a pack or two of shirts and a pack of transfers. kit them up and put on ebay and see if they sell....BEFORE ordering lots and finding out they wont sell properly or in the way you are hoping to do? Only a suggestion but personally if it was me that was thinking about doing this, I would just get maybe 5 or 6 and a pack of transfers and try it out first....

I am sure you have thought of this already, but thought I would offer you the suggestion!

Thanks toots - guess that means you've gotta work twice as hard - lol!!! I'll update it tomorrow, cheers Hun x

Yeah, I was a bit worried I'd have to do twice as much when I haven't even started on half of it! :rotfl:No panic to update on my account, leave it till you next plan an update!

Night night shell, hope you're feeling better in the morning.

Wayne - I'm sure Fruits of the Loom is the brand used by a lot of good quality printed t-shirts. One thing to check is, make sure that the t-shirts you buy are not textured, or have a loose/open weave. When you are using the iron on transfers the t-shirts need to be very smooth.

Munchki - sorry things are not going well right now. I can only wish you strength and positivity.

My update: well I listed 24 DVDs on a selling community. So far sold 2 but hey £6 is better than nothing, and if I can manage to send them to the correct addresses this time, it's all profit.

I've also started a couple of drawings, though I don't seem to be getting on well with cats. But getting on better with Lilac Pixie's kids.

I've also had a thought for a project that might work well on Etsy/Folksy (for when I can't draw/paint. I find it very labour intensive/stressful and am just not up to it some days, healthwise), especially with the Ren Fair crowd. But need a little input form you wonderful lot:

What format can you think of producing a kind of poem lucky charm type thing (think Footprints in the Sand) - I've thought of keyring and fridge magent and the little wallet size card. Anything else I'm not thinking of?

Yeah, tbh you can get a plain t shirt of ebay for about £1.40 so i could order a couple and test it like that.:beer:

Hello all.

I have not been on as much as normal - half term hol + trying to do too much to acheive the 10k, with limited success.

Is anyone else suffering from Overload?

I am doing the following:
Working pt
Overtime
ebaying
Selling barefoot
starting to blog - slow progress
building a website
organising with my sis to start an online business
MSing - but being more selective, now
Surveys - only the good ones, mind

I am totally knackered.

Should I concentrate on one / some things or just keep at everything?

I have no idea, really.

No point wasting time if you dont need to.....and before long someone is going to read this thread and who knows think, hey good idea, think I will give that a try! There are lots of lurkers and well you never know

Thanks for the help , I have emailed back saying I have receipt - so will see what happens next.


I now need some advise about BINGOBRITAIN.
I joined and have won several times using the free daily bonus.
Tonight I won £50 , and clicked to withdraw it into my account,
I wrote down the transaction reference number and that was that.

But now I tried to log into BB and it says ...

your account is not enabled :eek:.
It seems like Ive been banned but for what I dont know ,
It makes me wonder if I will recieve my win earlier today ?
any ideas please.

Same happened with me. When I e-mailed their support they told me that they have withdrawn my account as they do not believe I am a serious bingo player and that I am taking advantage of their bonus offer! Apparently they can close your account at any time and funnily enough it was after I won £30.
The company is a discrace!

YummyMummy - lol my DD is the same with stippy tape, next coincidence, traded in my old phone with envirofone last month and got DD a pink trampoline with it, they are soooo cool, keeps them occupied for aaagggggeesss and when they are done, they colapse and sleep like a log, its great!

Munchki - My dad was in credit control and was made redundant last year (he was 49 and had worked his way up to a good wage, not the ideal candidate either), he looked for 9 months, same as you applied for anything and everything going took dozens of interviews and killed half the rainforest with the amount of CVs he sent out, in the end, he gave up looking for what he was trained to go, got a free OU course in accounting (if you recieve JSA, IS or Housing benefit, they will stamp your app form and you don't have to pay for the course), and found a few temping jobs that way, which lead to a perminent one. Maybe keep looking and just in case have a look on the OU website for retraining in something that has a lot of vacancies atm. Will prob be like my dad and have to take a lower pay, but like he says, something is better than nothing, he went from £35,000 to £20,000, but he is managing ok.

Hi Truly! Sweetie, being exhausted is not going to help you with this challenge or anything else! I'd back off on a couple of things if you're knackered all the time, why don't you concentrate on one or two areas only for a few days, give yourself a chance to recharge your batteries?
