Wow - everyone has been really busy
None of my items have sold on Amazon yet and I'm going to put my charity shop finds on Ebay tomorrow to see how they go.
I found £1 in the pub last night - you have never seen someone get so excited over £1 before :rotfl: - I have gone and spent it already on a Guess jean jacket that I found in a charity shop for a pound!! Bargain!!
My boyfriend's mum also had a charity bag that was going to go to the shop on Monday, so I rummaged through it and found a Levis jean jacket and a BRAND NEW pair of Quiksilver jeans - they've even still got the tags on!! So I cheekily swiped these to put on Ebay tomorrow.
Welcome to all of our new challengers - good luck

Hi, of course you can join. The rules to this challenge are in the first post of this thread. You will need to find a way of making £1 for nothing to get started.
Good luck0 -

I would get as far ahead as possible if I were you so that you've got more time to get the bigger cash coming in- that's my plan anyway.

I know it's going to be tough but I'm planning on building up £100 to £200 as quickly as possible and then getting some wholesale stuff that I can sell (either from a website or from Ebay). That way I will have enough time to resell this wholesale stuff and hopefully make a massive profit and if that's not enough then I'll have more time to do it again0
