Could you not send a Second Chance Offer to the next highest bidder of the one that did sell incase they still want it?!? Be quicker and easier for you than relisting?

I only had one bid and that was at a price I was happy to accept. Just surprised there were 3 watchers but only one bidder. Maybe the others were selling the same and wanted to see how I did.

Someone asked me to make them a tutu a couple weeks back and they finally paid today, do I count it towards my total?
If so I'ma count the full £10 cos she's so freakin' skinny it took so little fabric and it's still mega poofy :P

EDIT: Asking cos a couple weeks back was August, but paid in September

Morning all. Everyone seems to be doing well. Very slow start for me though just £3 from a pinecone survey. Will have to get my finger out as I should be £50 by now lol.

First update of the month for me - found 5p coin on floor in cafe and made £63 profit at car boot on Friday

Doing a car boot this morning, just going back down there after this, so hope to have more to report tis evening however hubbie has now registered as self employed doing buying & selling and car booting - all done properly i.e. applied for form from tax office, told DWP - he is on Incapacity Benefit and this will be classed as Permitted Work i.e. he could work any hours and earn under £20 per week indefinitely OR work up to 16 hours a week and earn up to £93 for 12 months - after that he would have to sign off Incap or stop working - it is to see if he can manage working. Remember he has to take off the cost of buying stuff to sell, van insurance, diesel, pitch fees, storage costs for unit, etc so, whereas up to now we have been selling our own stuff, from Monday we will be buying to sell, so my figures on here will be nett of expenses and I will work it out weekly, taking into account what he has bought during that week, and how much of our own stuff he sells We will have to see how it goes

Right - my total so far is £63.05

Count me in for £10 a day please... only just realised this thread exists (the 5th I know)so I am a newbie. I will try to earn £10 a day rather than saving, from today that takes me to a goal of £260.

better get eb**ing...

£26.40 from extra work, not as much as I'd like but this centre is further away so cost me £3 in petrol

also thought i'd got a bargain from supermarket earlier, lloyd grossman salami pizza had label on shelf of £1 (there was a stack so I assumed it wasnt just one in the wrong place) and the label seemed to match up perfectly. I was that confident I forgot to check as it was going thru the till, and of course when I got home I noticed I'd been charged the full price of £3! *useless MSE'r* lol still not bad for a pizza I guess!

:j Have just totted up my totals from the various lists I've kept over the last 5 days, and its already £145.01!!

So naturally, I am rather chuffed with myself, and I am therefore going to upgrade my challenge to £10 a day rather than just £5!

This is made up from Ebay sales that ended on Friday evening, which after fees made £43.89 and cleared a bit more space in the "To Ebay" box, which has since been topped up again though as we're sorting out the living room!
Some saving on nappies for DS, as Co-op has Huggies on BOGOF, and I also had a £3 off voucher (for a quick email to moan about something the wipes drying up too quickly - which may have been a [STRIKE]slight[/STRIKE] total fib to get a voucher!! I've counted the BOGOF saving as the difference between the nappies I would usually have got (usually Boots own brand), and these Huggies to keep it a more accurate reflection.

Lots of surveys! And Consumer Pulse £10 vouchers x 2 (as with most things I've also signed OH up and do them all for him to get twice as much!)

Daily clicks and other Cashback - including £2 from TopCashBack for signing up to match.com for Free. And another £2 for signing my Other Half up on the TCB account I've done in his name!

£20.76 from Music Magpie, plus £1.56 cashback from Quidco for this.

£12 that I would have spent on a new Ink Cartridge as I got a printer from someone on Freecycle which had ink in and a spare cartridge! Will freecycle the printer on when it comes to the point where the ink is almost all out, as the printer itself is huge!!

A few other bits and bobs in there to add too, £3.16 from Amazon, £5 amazon voucher from Virgin Think Tank Panel. Only came across this site near the end of August and it's such an easy way to get £5 Amazon voucher each month.

Blimey I've gone on a bit there haven't I! But at least it helps me keep track so I can look back at what I've got from where!
