DECEMBER Make £10 A Day Challenge ~*~ All Welcome ~*~

misskaytee

Good morning all, it seems the monies are starting to flow in for our efforts ~ Well done.
Beefinbed ~ Ebay listing can be very time consuming and boring!:o but once its on there you'll feel much better. Turbo lister is a great tool, you can list a few items every night on there over the week and then pop them all onto ebay in one go, so if you like your auction to end on a sunday it ideal for spreading the work load although you cannot us turbo lister on free listing days, you will be charged as normal i believe.
I wonder if it would be worthwhile writing ebay disciptions in a word document so you could just copy and paste when needed? again this could be done in smaller sessions over the week and the just copy and paste like mad on free listing days, i think i give that a go and see for myself!!
Charlie792 ~ Theres some Fab savings there WTG!

Ms Halffull & Dream Dreamer ~ All that overtime is certainly paying off, and your both working really hard, Targets will be smashed at this rate!!

Purpleroses ~ We miss you! How are your money making efforts going?

Humblepii ~ Ive got to admit i do love a mincepie with a cuppa, i normally get crumbs all over the lappy though!

Dinah93 ~ Wow, what a great boost to find all that cash you'd forgotten about :T My brothers g/f Family are quite well off, Her mother in her old age became rather forgetful, The G/F had to go to the bank with her mother to sort some things out, There it was discovered the mother had a forgotten bank account with over 100 grand in :eek:
Keolly~ wtg...ebay free listings are mean't to be random, although there have been quite a few at 2 week intervals lately, you could do as suggested to BeefinBed and get everything prepared ready to pounce when there is one!!

Soarsie ~ You seem to get loads of vouchers, How do you do it?

Aureol~ Thats an awful lot of cash back! is that from christmas shopping or from over the year? I signed up with them but i haven't used it yet, whats the minimum withdrawal ?

Annibee ~ i take it your money was on Matt then? well done, i can't Bet myself, Im a trying hard to reform compulsive gambler :eek: So ladbrookes is a definate no no for me!

Well i think thats me just about caught up with every body

Today im going to bank the carboot cash so im not tempted to spend it, although it does feel nice to have so much cash i can actually feel, i might just count it again for the sake of it!! i feel like scrooge mc duck from the duck tails cartoons if any of you remember him :rotfl:

Hope you all have a great money saving Monday :money:

Well done on your Bootsale success MissKaytee - definitely worth getting up for.

I've had a wierd Ebay evening - sold 4 things but I'm not counting the money until it's been received and the buyer says they're happy with the item. A few of my items had loads of watchers but only one or no bids at the end - luckily I had fairly high starting prices thanks to last week's free listing weekend. My biggest concern though is about selling a child's car seat to someone in Coventry (feedback rating of 1) - when it's local pick up only from London - I just know that one is going to get complicated. :eek: - & of course the only person who has paid so far is woman from Coventry.

I'd forgotten how stressful I find Ebay as I don't do it that often.

am having the same re a buggy i sold its realistically to far to make it worth while travelling and i havent heard anything from her in 4 days now besides she initially contacted me for my phone number

i emailed her and gave her some quotes from a courier company and said i would package it up for her....but still not heard anything

need it out the way as its sat in my living room!!:mad:

I remember him

Feeling virtuous - resisted the temptation to buy a 'nice' coffee on my way into the office and instead bought a pint of milk to make a mug of lovely instant. I know savings don't count in this challenge, but staying money-aware can only help!

Yep it was im not a big gamber had a fiver free on there when the grand national was on so £1 on three horses and £1 on matt and gamu (yeh that didnt go well!) go monies from grand national then said id wait till after x factor to withdraw and the total was £15 so i was well impressed lol. More money towards the maternity pot.

off to buy toiletries today all with my £75 advantage card points saved up the past year to sepend around this time! Gonna add the advantage points to my total as not added them up to date

well done on all those already met there targets!! :T

charlie792

Well the good news is I've nearly reached my target (£5 a day) £28 short - A few things on Quidco have been validated so Im hoping that will pay out soon only £2.26 but it all helps - Fingers crossed the other £51.90 will at some point....
Bad news is bank account is almost empty after paying off the bills - got to make it last until mid jan .
Will certainly be looking forward to trying again then - have a few plans on making some money here and there

annibee

Made my first £1.95 from a servey yesterday. I'm liking this free money lark I've also got some ebay sales finishing today. I've already got a bit of £25 on one item. I don't think I'll make my target as I'm heading off on holiday next week but every little helps

hello all,

Well nightmare of a week here so no money making and my car had to go in garage thought the driver shaft had gone!!! luckily thou it was just (she says) coil spring and suspension plate, so about £300 eek!

On a very small plus side I have £1.97 interest, £14.74 mystery shop and £5.95 from various surveys, finally a saving of £20.93 on food this week.(don't want to know what I spent) all added to my running total.
