    I have been reading this thread and after catching up on it on Monday I decided I had nothing to lose and started 'the chant' to myself that night.
    Yesterday a friend rang and asked if we still had our trailer tent for sale ( yes as not much response from adverts ) she knew someone who might be interested.
    They came to look at it, said YES and so am £900 richer just one day after telling myself 'money is coming easily to me' it did. :j Is truth stranger than fiction? I couldn't make this up! :D

    Wow, I really should have asked for 10% before telling you all my secret! Lol, that's fab.

    I know...there are a lot of little boys being born. Still my younger sister has two girls so she's doing her bit for the XX chromosomes!

    hey folks, here comes the science bit...it's blokes that are responsible for the sex of the baby, not the girls. all women pass on an x chromosome to the sprog, the men pass either an x or a y which then determines the sex. the y chromosome also passes on certain sex related characteristics ie colour blindness

    anyway i have started chanting happiness is coming easily to me as right now i feel more in need of that than money...not that there's enough of that, but i'd rather be poor and happy than rich and miserable...i think!:rolleyes:

    To any Amazon newbie sellers: I bought a couple of books tonight and I specifically bought from newbies or private sellers (not wholesalers) as I thought of us lot and wanted the money to go to one of us! I pictured someone sitting there chanting....then getting an email to say they'd sold a book :D

    Yup this was me...I just sold LookingAhead a copy of The Money Diet :T

    I can honestly admit that when reading this thread yesterday afternoon I did emit a little chant too! I will put a bit more ooomph in it today though in a hope for even more sales :D

    :T Good for you :T

    I've been chanting...

    money is coming easily to me...
    etc...
    etc.....

    well... I played on bingos.co.uk through quidco and made nothing :( did win a few odd pounds :j but you can't withdraw small amounts :( so just kept playing until it was all gone... zzzzzzzzzzzz!

    But.... it did track with quidco so that's £30 coming my way (barring disasters!) :j :D

    So not a resounding success then.... will keep at it :rotfl:

    Ooh, actually, I'm going to start seriously looking for work/volunteer opportunities later (when I tear myself away from here :naughty:;) ) so..

    Gemmzie - you get £30 via Quidco if you sign up to Bingos.co.uk via the Quidco site... then just place a bet for £10 - at the very worst you'll get £20 for nothing. At the best, chant the chant, and you could win more... be careful though!
