    Had an idea but don't know if it's within the rules of the game:

    How about having a whip-round of your friends & relations for foreign currency they've got lying around, you know like charities do sometimes (and charity begins at home, right?). It's not like you're asking for "real" money, if you know what I mean, & the Post Office for one will change quite small amounts without charging a fee.

    Or am I just getting shameless with this thing??? Whatja think???

    rachie77...first of all if your bunnies did mate and had baby bunnies...they would not be ready for christmas....

    Surely it's better if they're smaller...then they fit in the soup pot easier :p

    I think that you can only change up notes. I might be wrong though:confused:

    Aargh....been missing for two days as Orange servers went down and internet connection only just back up.....sooooo much listing to do!

    Oooh and Cooltrikerchick.....why do we have to scream at them? Cos they're men and programmed to be difficult so that they can then tell their mates we moan! :rolleyes: (OH just the same!)

    The bunny-mating suggestion made me roar with laughter!

    Good luck all x

    But freebird

    Orange may have saved you money as i'm sure you've already noticed that Thursday is a 10p listing day so thats 5p a listing you could save yourself

    Men are useless (or that may just be the one's i been in relationships with), commitment seems to a a foreign word in a language they don't know, and feelings are an alien concept to them- its nearly enough to turn a guy straight

  • Hi all! :T This is a fantastic thread - I found it tonight and thought I'll read it through and then ask to join. I got to page 17, but my eyes have gone fizzy now, so I had to give up reading for the time being! I'd like to say a big thank you to the OP and to all so far, for providing such great tips and encouragement! :T This thread has given me the impetus to do lots of things that I never usually have time for (but now I'm going to make time!). I have a lots of stuff to sell, including free stuff or prizes - so £1024 - please be mine soon!

    Now I just need to raise my first £1 and work out how to do a signature. I'm looking forward to the challenge! Can someone please remind me of the total figure I should have by now? Thanks a lot.

    Rachie77 - I hope you get off the mark soon but I beg you not to breed bunnies to sell to do this. There are too many unwanted animals out there and Christmas is the worst time. Sorry if I've got this wrong but it didn't sound like you had any experience in this area. I'm sure you'll find a more sensible way of getting off the mark
