    £2.77 from amazon book sold, £1 found on the street and 3p interest. This month is going no better than last but I haven't put anymore effort in either so I'm really not allowed to complain.

    Hi guys, i'm not taking part in the £10 a day challenge at present but was reading some of the thread and thought i'd offer up an idea.

    I used to sell mobile phones on ebay for £10 a time profit, no outlay for stock, heres how i did it, this might have been covered already but here goes.

    i registered with quidco, i listed the phones on ebay at break even price after fees, postage etc, based on phones 4 u prices.

    when i sold one i bought the phone from phones 4 u via quidco, phones 4 u always delivered next day meaning i could post to my customers within 24 hours, the cash back was £10 per phone which was my profit.

    Simple.

    Only catch is you have to have a few quid in the kitty to buy the phones once they sell but you can limit/restrict sales based on what you can afford to lay out before you get your funds out of paypal.

    Plus points, when you do lay out for a phone you know it's already sold, so no speculative outlay required.

    Not for everyone but maybe worth looking at for the more adventurious amoungst those who have taken up the £10 a day challenge.
