can we change up £1 worth of pennies from our penny pots? for the first £1

D&DD

What a great challenge I would love to join in but its just the wrong time at the moment too hectic!!
I would however go down the ebay route first,flog something I already have to get a kitty going.Then use the profit to buy from either boot sales,charity shops or ebay then sell on again at hopefully a vast profit.
This was how I started my ebay business and we did very well out of it I REALLY need to get cracking again next year and dent these debts so maybe if you are up for this after xmas I can join in Good luck and I hope you reach your targets :T

Nahhh - thats already your own money! Now - if anyone wants to DONATE a £1 to start me off....... Or 10p donations......????

All donations gratefully received?


PS - Could barter my services in return for 'Protection Money' in the local playground.... Or run a cake service to keep the little blighters in calories now Jamies back on the screen!

That's so imaginative. The very best of luck - do you not think you should start with a paperclip?

Okay - at the risk of sounding really thick....! Why a paperclip?

Right, I reckon that it would be ok to sell something as long as it didn't cost you anything in the first place.

This could be an unwanted present, a freebie, a prize etc. As long as it didn't actually cost you any money then it will be fine.

I'm not sure if changing money from your spare change pot would be from nothing as you put the money in there. Now if it were change that you found on the street or something then that would be money from nothing.

Good luck everyone

I believe that's what the guy who first did this started off with.

A guy in Canada started with a paper clip to buy a house and he was successful. good luck to you.
