***New*** Thrifty Gifty Money Making for Christmas and all occasions 2011***

Hi - Elysia, all is well. I've just been busy.

I've been struggling to get on the computer. My 3 year old has suddenly become very interested in doing cbeebies games and that suits me fine as he can be a pain in the backside touching stuff when he is not well occupied.

The only downside is i have not made much yet today. I had only 5p on OP, and 16p on crowdology.

Although, i did receive my OP £40 and a survey network £20 today. I've also had 64 rates on a DY review, and a few E ratings on Chow, so all is ticking away in my absence. Must work hard tonight to keep it that way.

Mooloo - I'll find the code for you.

Susan/Knit - there's another one to add to your order. - Gu chocolate souffles - COU2144131.


Mooloo - You go through this link - add add your chocolate souffles above to basket, also the chocs I posted on the other page, make sure you order about £50 worth of items (including the freebies).

At checkout, add the two codes for the free items, and this code VOU0837678 - and it will take off another £20. If you ordered £50 worth, it will total about £20 plus delivery charge.

New customers only

Michelle - I'm glad things are ok. Phew. I got worried.

Bunbun - don't try and do too much all at once. You'll make yourself ill. How's OH feeling now, is anything clearer?

elysia OH is fine in himself, at home it's just when work is mentioned. he has spoken to someone in the union who said he will refer him to occ health if he wants. OH said he will get back in touch after his appointment with the therapist tomorrow. last week she suggested he went on supply and I went back to work. supply pays half of what he earns at the moment and whilst I agree it would be better for him the mortgage and bills have to be paid. also I haven't worked for 13 years so getting a job won't be plain sailing. I just wonder how realistic this therapist is.

sorry to go on but I can't see a way out at the moment and money worries me

I was struggling today. In the end I managed 20p on OP, one on PC for £3, and had two EB sales for just over £2. Also went in superdrug to buy some conditioner and the one I wanted was reduced to 49p (head and shoulders) so must have saved something there.

Went through the bags of clothes I was given, took out a pile to try on for myself and found a couple with some stains on the front which are going in the machine to see if they come out. Ended up with 19 tops that were not to my taste really and all in good nick so have listed them all in Turbolister and will put a couple on a night and see how they go. Put two on tonight for 7 days, just 99p each with £2.50 for pp. Has anyone sold any womens tops lately and know what the postage is likely to be? I was looking at the completed listings and that seemed the norm for ladies tops. Just dont want to end up out of pocket if they only go for the 99p each.

PC saved the day.

I also had a GTM one worth 60 points (£1.80 i think?) , and a survey network for 80p, so overall that has turned out ok. Phew, was beginning to worry.

Right, i think i need another review writing for DY, and do some rating.

Elysia thanks so much for the codes, have just updated my basket

Rufus - I sold a ladies top at the weekend. I weighed it before I listed it, and quoted for 2nd class postage. I did note that if they wanted it first class, they were to ask for revised invoice before paying - I charged £1.50.

If yours is for 1st class, and the others are for £2.50 it should be ok. I always try and keep the p+p low, that way they might bid more. The p+p gets spent - the bid is the bit you keep.

Hey everyone, sorry for going abit AWOL!. Not sure if anyone has seen on the news today about a suspected burglar being stabbed to death in salford... well his body was found at the end of my street! And I drove past at about the time it was found so I think I may have missed it by mins! So today has been totally hetic round here!

And then to make it even more hetic I went to watch Glee tonight. We only got the tickets the other night and we were basically on the front row! Went with my two cousins and we had such a giggle! We high fived nearly all the cast hahaha

I have also being spending time relaxing this week in the evening and have been to the cinema TWICE in three days, very unlike me hahaha AND Im even off for a night out tomorrow eve!

However... all this has been money spending not money making! oops! Will try and buckle down with the money making instead

Hiya giggles - it does you good to let your hair down a bit, now and again. Don't you worry - just have fun. Back to the money making soon though, or you'll have nothing left.


Here's a freebie day out for your OH's and the kids. Register (they send no spam, honestly) and click on the purple banner in the corner - you can get four tickets, watching rally cars racing at Silverstone. It's a brilliant day out, I'm told - I got my Dad tickets last year and he loved it.
