    They did ask for details of my employer and the length of time that I had been there.

    I am not sure if you don't have those details what would happen.

    I only signed up for a savings account, nothing that would need a credit check. Perhaps you would be okay with this as well if you aren't working (in the traditional sense of the word, though being a stay at home mum, you work more than me!)

    I got an initial approval and now i am waiting for the application pack so I can send back two items with my name and address on them.

    Nothing wrong with giving it a try.

    I would definitely be doing that Cahoot with my first £1 if I hadn't already done it! Good recommendation there for others doing the challenge.

    It is the same sort of thing as quidco I think, only they dont take any admin fees.

    I have come across a website called https://www.ibootsale.co.uk

    As the name suggests, it is an online carboot sale, all year round.

    Just thought some people might be interested in taking a look, either to pick up a bargin to sell on or to sell some of their own items.

    I do not know all the ins and outs yet, but you list for free and you can list up to 25 items free.

    I have posted a message on the Ebay/Car Boot forum to see if anyone has any experience with this site.

    Just a thought....
  • I bought a huge pumpkin from the farm near my daughter's school after I had dropped her off this morning. I have sold it to an admirer for double what I paid for it already. I will buy another two when I go back to school this afternoon. :j
    Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times and I'll smash your face in. :D
