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

I've got a question on the money for nothing aspect. A year back my house was robbed and most of my good jewellery was taken. I was insured so was paid out about 80% of the value of what I lost. So I bought more jewellery.
I'm reselling some of that jewellery on ebay now, so I'm wondering if it would be covered under the money for nothing challenge. I bought my original jewellery which was taken, but the jewellery I'm selling didn't cost me anything as I bought it from insurance money.
Thanks,

Wouln't have thought so as you had to pay out for the jewellry out of your own pocket in the first place... maybe someone else can advise?MFW #185

Personally I wouldn't have thought that would count as originally you bought the jewellery that was replaced with the insurance money? Which you also lost 20% on?
I've sold quite a few vouchers that I had got by doing surveys online, so that has helped my total, I also got £30 for something on ebay that I was given, my ebay sales seem to be going ok.0 -
Well it seems I messed up my first bet...
Luckily I went for the £10 one to start off and not a £50 one, that could have been interesting. The bet isn't settled until later tonight so I'm not sure how things will pan out yet... What a muppet, I chose my username well! :rotfl:
Edited to say I don't think I have messed up now.. just me doing things the wrong way round!!0 -
