    I feel a bit bad, I just made £3.01 out of my Mum! She gave me £20 to buy a top-up voucher for her mobile (as she lives in France), so I bought one on eBay for £16.99. I'm sure she wouldn't mind... :D

    I've just received my first mystery shopper assignment but can't do it because it's not in my area and would need a car to do it. It tells me how to accept the assignment but not how to decline, do I just ignore it to decline??

    It's annoying because they're offering me £20!

    Ok, me and OH are up for this challenge starting today. Ive updated my PC calendar with reminders of the targets and we are going to make charts for the fridge door!

    ive just listed two sim cards on ebay that i got for free and inserted the secret code at the bottom so fingers crossed they sell and I can meet week one target!

    Depends who it is Miss Muppet, is it Grass Roots Group?? If it is and you don't want the assignment just leave it and don't accept it. :) If its someone else let me know and I'll try and help.

    I work as a mystery shopper but can't include pay from that in my money from nothing challenge as I'm working to earn it as I do it for a living. :A

    Just got back from posting my ebay item today, and picked up a couple of things to put on this evening with the profits. Had a really good idea for something to sell on ebay so just need to look into it and work out figures etc. ;)

    Yes it is Grass Roots... I will just ignore then! :)

    I have just listed a few bits on eBay which my ex gave me for xmas/b'days... probably won't get much but at least I will be getting some cash for this stuff instead of it reminding me of what never happened! :D

    No thankfully the only things that look different are the slightly cleaner floors ROFL. :D

    Hello! I'm just a lurker on this thread, but really enjoying reading all your progress. Just had to add a quick message for mossy though - now this might now be exactly money-saving in the short term, but to save on long term ceiling damage to your house ;), have you considered a bath alarm? They are fab, you can doze off without worrying about overflow (no I didn't invent it and don't own shares in the company lol). My Gran was partially sighted and had one of these (she also had a little one for her teacup, so she knew exactly when to stop pouring the boiling water in)!
