    Morning all ,

    I just wanted to share my exciting ( and hopefulyl future money making news with you) - i have finaly gotten onto the upholstery course i put my name down for last year ! i spent yesterday trawing second hand shops ooking for a battered chair for my forst project before finding one in a skip !

    i start tonight and its not really cheap but its something i want to learn and hopefully make a business out of in the future - I have already have 2 jobs lined up for when i know what I'm doing !!

    i have a free day today so after a spot of desperatly needed housework i am going to prepare to ebay at the weekend - nothing at all in my pot yet but oh and i did go through quidco when we signed on to weight watchers so thats £6- cash back to come but i wont count it until we get it !

    Well done - sounds like you will really enjoy the course :)

    Haven't been able to do much, got 4 mystery shops coming up and although they only reimburse what I spend, I'll put aside what I spent at the end of the month, also been doing some surveys so will need to have a count up of what I've done. It's hard to keep track of it.

    Will start up with comps again...although I never seem to win 'stuff' it's always gig tickets :D

    Has anyone got the clubcard link for the voucher checker? :)

    Have no money right now so can't do bingo or very much really, are there any fully free ones, rather than having to deposit money?

    Part of the Furniture 1,000 Posts Combo Breaker I've been Money Tipped!
    Hi all. Skint-student-nurse's talk about printers reminded me of a really good money saving tip. Buy your printer inks in bulk from eBay for massive savings. Obviously they're not official cartridges but most people won't be able to tell the difference and they don't do any harm to printers. Why pay £20+ for a single cartridge when you can get 12 for £12 or so. I have experience of using this eBay shop and have nothing but good things to say about them.

    Except it will invalidate your warranty.
    Make £25 a day in April £0/£750 (March £584, February £602, January £883.66)

    December £361.54, November £322.28, October £288.52, September £374.30, August £223.95, July £71.45, June £251.22, May£119.33, April £236.24, March £106.74, Feb £40.99, Jan £98.54) Total for 2017 - £2,495.10

    That may be the case but a budget printer these days may only cost £30 or so. It's the cartridges where the companies seem to make their money. Besides, in the unlikely event of something going wrong with the printer just swap the cartridges out for official ones (how would anyone tell the difference?). IMO it's a great way of saving money but I guess that invalidating your warranty would be something for you to decide upon.
