    Listing does take ages but I use https://www.auctiva.com. It takes a wee bit of getting used to but you can do quite nice listings really quickly and there are loads of free features (free scheduling and photo hosting) which all go to save the pennies!

    Thanks, shall have a go at this!

    kathfisch, how do you become a mistery shopper? Could you post some links, please?

    How long did it take you to get your first assignment?

    Thank you.

    Try this: https://www.grgresearch.com/default.htm

    They are the only ones I'm registered with at the moment, the assignments are not so common now since I moved from a big city to a small town but they're still every now and again. It was quite quick to get my first assignment, I think I had to complete some questions online and then was accepted. There are others that I looked at but i'm sticking with one at the mo... other ones will sort out the tax etc for you whereas with grassroots you need to register as self employed... hardly seems worth it with the small amount I earn! ;)

    Hope that helps!

    so more vouchers for 99p profit today

    total now £16.24. Loads ending today should make £9+ profit.

    Really annoyed as I have bought 3 mixed lots, that should have arrived before today so I could relist them today cheaply but they are still not here.

    Hi All

    Just spent two days reading through this thread and wanted to say well done to you all. :T :T :T

    You are a definate inspiration

    As part of this I got a £5 boots voucher today - should I ebay it or by something with it to ebay????
    What to do guys think

    sell the voucher

    more potential buyers

    if you buy something then you are limiting it to the people who want whatever it is you chose

  • How is everyones money making going?

    Mine seems to have come to a bit of a plateau, not too worried as i am ahead and it gives me a chance to look at the options for doubling the money in the final week.

    Going quite well here today! I won a £10 voucher on swapitshop with points that cost me nothing more than a few seconds of my time so anything that sells for on ebay will be profit :D

    And the mystery shopping and matched betting as mentioned earlier :T

    Matched betting is definitely the way to go for me, along with carbooting and then ebaying... I'm really enjoying both and making money! :j

    Getting really stuck into looking for odds, checking ebay etc.... can you tell I'm avoiding the work I should be doing?!?! :naughty: :rotfl:
