    Good evening, wow that wedding dress is stunning. Thats such a nice thing to do giving it away.
    Defo agree that cm was ott. What does it matter if we use caps in the correct places, Silly moo.
    I have borrowed my friend lap top until i can a charger for mine.
    I didnt haveany luck finding one in tesco or asda :(
    Listed som more bits on ebay tonight.
    I love ebay in a way and hae it in others. I looked at my total sales and was all wahoo wahoo as it was almost £200 then went to paypal and its around £150.
    This is because i pay my ebay fees and take out postage costs befo i look at my pay pal amount.
    The ebay, paypal and postage costs do take up a quite a big chunk dont you think?
    Im going to be trying to do some surveys tonight befor i need to give the lap top back.
    Looking forward to new ventures :beer:

    My OH had really got on board with money making, I gave him our January total last night from our ebay and amazon sales - nearly £250!! He then got all excited because he has got some alloys and other boy things to sell.

    I just wanted to say thank you to every single on of you on here for giving me the motivation to do ebay, amazon and surveys. This is money that was just gathering dust a month ago, and now our savings are more than 16p! Thank you everyone xxx

    Thats a great total for the month!! Its amazing what you can make from dust gathering items!!

  • On the nightshift again tonight and finally caught up with all the postings. Good job the tea is flowing tonight!! Shame its not a glass of wine though!!
    BP sound like a bit of a giggle! Shame i just dont have the time at the mo.

    Havent done much this week as i had my daughters birthday on tuesday and party on saturday so that has taken up loads of my time. She has promised to sort the bedroom out in the next few days as we need to find homes for her new pressies. I can fel another pile for the car boot coming on!!

    Have sold a few more things on ebay so pleased with that, just need to pack and post now, £73 after fees, post etc this week so very pleased with that! Paypal looking very healthy!!

    Saved £18 in my shopping savings jar so far.

    Hugs to all who need.

    Tracey congrats on DD's birthday. It was my DD's the same day - we hadn't found homes for all the Christmas presents and then you get another lot, so I know how you feel. To make matters worse, be are awaiting delivery of a new chest of drawers but they are not due until 12th feb. Grrr.

    Tracey = don't worry about not being able to keep up, or not do bp. At least you've made a start. Every penny you earn is one less you need to find later, so a small amount of money is much better than none. ;) Well done hun.

    Morning Ladies - Are we all up and raring to go with some money making? I feel quite organised today - I may list some some stuff on ebay (for just the five days) I'll see how I get on. Camera is working again for the moment. :)

  • Wow, struggling to keep up at the moment. OH is back at work tomorrow (fingers crossed his heal has recovered) so I should be able to keep up! ;)

    Been struggling with the reviews and surveys at the mo but putting it down to him being off work. I have done better on the ebay challenge then I ever thought I would made about £100 after fees and postage so that should help towards the nasty car bill we recieved. Did plan to put it away but oh well.

    Tally so far (looking poor from last week)

    Dooyoo:17030
    1Poll: £21.20
    Toluna: 23669 (getting no where with this one)
    VOpinion: £9.75 (with £3.50 waiting to clear to a voucher as soon as they have)
    GC 2015: Aug £272.21 /£300 Sept £112.41 /£300

    Well morning everyone, you gave me a laugh about bp. You`ll all be struck off if you dont behave. Legend i blame you, you always seem to be in the middle of it

    I think this cm thing is a bit of a power thing. She`s in charge and you have to put up, you can only chat via them, not too each other SO COME ON STOP MESSING ABOUT:D

    Well done everyone on your totals.

    OH was working away last week and when he came back he said he`d treat us to a meal so we went to one of those sizzlers 2 meals for £5, there was three of us so we had 4 meals DS an OH share one. While we were eating he said to DS if we win the lottery i`l pay for repairs to car, well we won £10 and now he has to give DS £230 for repairs, I was laughing my head off because i was a witness and he has to pay up, so his money for working away has to goto DS
    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I havent been upto much, been doing luny and Survey Network, everything else is quiet

    Have 40 people here next week OH birthday party, invited all the people that couldnt come at xmas and they all coming and the ones that came at xmas asked why cant they come so told them to come as well. So have to pull my finger out and get baking.

    Hope we get an ebay free listing day soon as paypal is negative balance because the moneys frozen. And got some clothes sorted to sell.

    One question, on a free listing day is things listed under a pound free or anything?

  • Right, I'm still in BP using up some points, although I have won some back this morning too :) I made a start yesterday emailing toluna and valued opinions as it turns out I had accounts ages ago which are now inactive and I can't log in so we shall see what they say.

    I'm off to do some flyladying now, which includes listing some bits n eBay so two birds, one stone! Hope everyone having a great morning and I WILL catch up on this thread xx
