The "make money from anything" challenge!

oops_a_daisy

got stung today with postage of ebay item ( my own fault )

I guestimated £3.50 and it cost £5.31 :eek: OOPS

so I made £7.53 after postage and fees on a free CD player - still money for something that was free but I will check postage in the future

edited to say I also got round to sending off 2 old mobiles to envirofone - hopefully £35 from that on its way

Hey guys, have started this thread too late to join in with the challenge but you all look like your doing really well!

I just moved house and am getting broadband soon (if my IP pulls its finger out soon!) and will be on here more, as i'm logged on at work at the mo! Gonna set me up a quidco account and get into the matched betting threads, see if it really can earn you easy money!

Anyway, i'm gonna get on board with a new year debt free scheme, starting to buy next years Chrissie pressies etc early on, and try and keep a dedicated record to see just how well i'm doing! I'm taking a great deal of motivation and experience from everyone here and so should find it easy to do! Is this thread gonna carry on till the new year and beyond, or is someone gonna start a new dedicated 2007 challenge thread?

Thanks for the help guys, i'm getting used to the navigation and will be one of you soon!!!

Hi All

Sorry I thought I had posted an update last week, but I can't see it now.

Oh well
Totals are now ebay £74.25
Mystery shopping £26.80
Casino £98
Quidco - £96

Which gives a total of £295.05

Not bad, but I have got quite a few mystery shops lined up, and I am about to spend the evening in front of the TV sorting out clothes for ebay - mostly baby stuff so I don't think I will get much - and I probably wont have time to get them on tonight so will miss the cheap listing day.

I've got a few Mystery Shops this next week and £45 to come selling a cake. but apart from that I'm not doing "aswell now" - see sig for ammount up to now. Need to set my December payment challenge - this I'll try for £250 but even that might be pushing it this month!
