Have sold 10 things so far from Amazon, sad to see my things go but it is all money :-)

Packaged up 8 so far, now just need to hunt around for things to pack the other in.

Just need to find some more to do now, really could do with some more money to pay off my debts.

what do you sell on amazon? i have quite a few books that i never read for a course had wondered about putting them on amazon as too good for a car boot and not sure if they would sell on ebay,but not sure of fees etc and if its worth it! i know some one else said after postage and fees etc they dont get much.

Well done kimmy thats good!! I am starting to feel a bit better about this challenge too! I've been thinking and I do need to get my A game on!
Done 2 reviews today so far (did them while I couldnt sleep at about 5am lol!) and people are reading them so thats good (every 1.5p or whatever it is you get helps!) and we all need to remember (those who get paid a monthly salary) that Feb is a few days shorter than normal so maybe we'll have a tiny bit extra which can be moved to savings for this challenge!?
I got interest again on my accounts which I'm going to count but its got a bit confusing because I had the money from this challenge in a seperate account but I've moved it so that I can get more interest on the other money in my other account (have to have over £5000 in it to get anything so I had to move my challenge cash!)
I think if I keep a good record though of what the money is and where it's from I can should move it back into its own account when I can!

Green Metropolis is good for selling those books which would only sell for a penny on amazon. Green Metroplis pay £3 for every book sold and allow 75p for postage.

Just some DVDs and CDs, I'm just trying to get rid off all the stuff that's piling up in my room. Some money is better than nothing, its a few quid on each thing which is better than sat in my room.

I'm adding £8 on from a Tes*o spend & save coupon. So that's me up to £290.21 so far for the year. I am not adding my e-bay sales yet as I want to see how much is left after I have paid my fees. I have just listed some more things but I'm not very hopeful about them tbh as they were all clothes.

I have played a little bit more on 888 & not won anything else & wondering now about just getting out of it but I don't know if I actually can. I only deposited £10 but my balance is £43, which includes some of their bonus amounts for joining up plus some winnings. It says you have to deposit £30 before you can withdraw so does anyone know if I deposit another £20, I could then withdraw the full amount? I think I read somewhere that your winnings have to be at least £25 & although I did win about that amount, I don't know whether it is my winnings that I have been playing with or the bonus money that I got from joining up. I'm a bit confused!

omg,i have made a staggering £180 on ebay since midnight :eek: and ive got more items finishing tomorrow. Frankly, i think i need to try harder everyone has paid up as well which makes it even better! the car boot is off tomorrow as OH is going out instead so it will be a hot date for me with costa bingo tonight :rotfl:
