Can I make £1,024 in 11 weeks from nothing?

chika

WTG with the charity shop bargain hunting. I'm going to check the local ones out in the week.

I've been playing free Bingo and managed to make £50 in one day! That is £20 of winnings from the stv.tv site using the free £5 credit and £30 from quidco for signing up to bingos.com.

The bingos site is ok - there is the quidco bonus and then if you deposit £10 you get an extra £10 & you can easily win bonuses in the chat rooms. I was quite skeptical at first but if an eejit like me can get it, anyone can.

Thanks for the tip BangraMonkey

The good people of Birmingham don't seem to donate the branded dresses (or at least in the areas i looked at)

got two cds, a book which was 20p which isn't too bad

I got a g-plan coffee table for a tenner in the PDSA shop (one the same design as 150045214789) so should double my money.

The Sony Camcorder tapes sold today for a tenner (only paid 3.98 for them so thats a fiver profit)

Will update my signature tomorrow when the stuff on ebay ends tomorrow

I want to come shopping with you please Mr Adams! My search today was not that hopeful. The Cancer Research shop here was selling Rough Guides for £2.99 each and even though I could sell them on easily there's no way I'd make money on that. I kept my eyes open for software CDs but nothing going. Clothes were all overpriced and bric-a-brac was no bargain. I do have high hopes for my L'Occitane travel bag (£2 from Cancer Research) as I know that brand usually sells pretty well. I also raided Tesco's £1 an item + BOGOF today so will see how these items go

i got strange looks from the bus drivers when i took the table on-board!

charity shops are very hit and miss though

Maybe Monday is the best day to look as most people will donate on a Saturday (but thats not possible for a lot of us)

On another topic how is Rod Stewart a sex-symbol, and i can't take him serious since they took the mike out of him in a South Park episode!

Hi

I had a look at your items... my only two comments would be

1. I use gallery picture (15p)
2. when I take a picture of a dress, etc, I put it against white background (a door, a wall, etc.

Best of luck!

Thank-you very much for your advice - I'll definately use a white background with my next pictures, (why didn't I think of that! doh!), and will look into gallery pictures as don't really know what the difference is (another doh!).

Thank-you! :T

Never in a million years would I have thoughyt of selling vouchers or coupons till I read this - OK I'm in too!

Currently I have £1.60 coming from Pampers vouchers (£8 worth, hope will go up). Also £4.20 for £5 love2shop voucher. Will shortly be listing some other coupons. All those I got free, so that's fine. OK, some questions now:

I have Alexon and Debenham vouchers I got for returning items - presumably I can't 'claim' these?

I know I can use my profit to buy more stuff to sell. The question is - can I buy it from myself???? I had already bought a load of clothes @ 10p from a charity shop, haven't listed yet. Can I use my profits, if so who do I pay? (Can I pay Peefer my mortgage pig???? )

Can I include quidco if I got it by spending someone else's money?????

ooohhh this is sooooo complicated!!!!:p

Thanks Dan - yes gallery is a lot better isn't it - how cheeky of ebay!

I buy books and a gallery photo doesn't make any difference whether I look at the listing or not, as long as there is a piccie in the listing.

But for clothes I do like to see a gallery photo.

benedictadams

what is the best way to photograph furniture (i.e. my coffee table) as i've never had to do it before?

i will be sticking a gallery picture in as it could bring me extra sales so the extra fee will be an investment, (although i don't think whoever buys it will be willing to pay an adminstration fee aka my ebay fees)
