    Updated my siggy with some recent savings and have 60 items listed on ebay! Mainly books and magazines after having a book shelf clearout. I know we can't put our ebay ids or anything on here but are we able to mention things that we have listed that might be of interest to others?

    Good luck to all :beer:

    Thanks to eveyone on here for ideas and inspiration!

    Yesterday we had a fayre at work and everything that was left over was going to be thrown out so I nabbed it all before it went in the bin and I'm planning on putting it on ebay or car booting what I can't get rid of on there. So hopefully there will be a little bit of extra income :)

    My brother gave me a bag of stuff the other day and I've ebayed some of that. I've got a bid for 99p for 2 pairs of cinema 3D glasses they give you but with the lenses popped out! Lol :) Happy days. Although I think I'm going t have trouble with one buyer because I sent his parcel off around Monday/Tuesday and today he emailed me for the tracking number...Ooh err
  • Hi everyone. Adding on another £16 from Bingo wins taking me to £942.28. I'm still not adding on my ebay sales as two buyers still haven't paid & four or five others, I am still waiting for feedback on & ideally I would like to wait until I know everything has been received and the buyers are happy. I am also waiting on a £10 Mr T voucher from Valued Opinions ( I finally got my log in problems sorted!) & also waiting to hear back from Mr T on their dtd policy with my receipt from today. Oh & also have £3.75 from a credit balance on an account that I had my first statement on the other day in over 4 years! So £946.03 so far for the year.

    has DY broken for anyone else? I was planning on writing a few reviews but can't get on the site :( If it's not just me I would be wary and cash out if anyone is close to/at payout!
    Done a few surveys today and just need a fewwww more points (I've asked before but does anyone want a refferal to myvoice? only asking because the refferal is the amount of points I need lol! if you do, pm me your email!)
    SSN be careful if you've been told to take it easy!!
