    just cashed in payable from topcashback and they are offering topups if you opt for amazon vouchers, if anyone has payable would be worth doing. Instead of £7.41 i got £7.60, not alot but every little helps. Also just sold 10 really old cds on music magpie, didn't even know i had them, so that's another £3.35.

    Please can i ask what is dooyoo, what does it involve, do i need to be refered? mtia

    Dooyoo is a site you write reviews for and in return you earn points which you can turn into amazon vouchers or a cheque. It does take a little bit of effort but I actually enjoy doing it. If you go back to post 2 of this thread elysia has kindly put info on dooyoo there which will make more sense then what I would write. You can get a refer but you don't have to. If you are refered it will help someone with more points. Hope that has helped.

    Found this old thread earlier and have spent the afternoon reading it. Someone said they had sold some empty ink cartridges and I had some in my desk drawer that I was saving as a friend of my Son's used to collect them for charity so took a photo and put them on to see if they sell. Didnt cost anything to list so worth a shot at least.

    Off to carry on reading to see if I can find anything else xx

  • Wow! I was on here just before I went to bed last night (early night) and now checked on and had 4 pages to trawl through. Glad to see we have more members. Thanks to all those people in bingo last night - was fun. Almost felt like I was watching TV with someone as live on my own. Didn't win anything but at least it costs nothing to play and is a little fun!

    Right, I've put up 32 books on Amazon marketplace today and 19 ebay listings. Now getting the OH to go through the DVDs and his old games so I can music magpie or Games Exchange them. Phew, exhausted now!

    Hope you've all had a lovely day ebaying, sorting, surveying, bingoing and cokezoning! It's really exciting to see how everyone is making the extra pennies!

    Wow twinkle - you have been busy!!!!

    I took tonnes of photos of my ebay stuff and downloaded all the christmas photos and ebay stuff on computer. When it came to listing the stuff, my ebay photos weren't there but christmas ones were!!! Very odd.

    Did it all again and time is ticking by. Takes ages, especially with it being a dull day.

    List again and still no photos. GGrrrr. So what I've had to do is see if anyone has listed the same things as me, and nick their photos, so it's took twice as long. If everything sells at the minimum, I should clear £50 after fees easily.

    Plus i have a stack of stuff to go on next week when I can get a new memory card. Oh well. :)

    How's everyone doing? Who's listed the most things??? - I reckon it's Twnklestar but I could be wrong ;)

    Rufus - if the ink cartridges are not Epsom they can be recycled and they pay you for it. HP ones go for the most money ;)

    We'll have a dooyoo challenge next month. You can get signed up and started if you like, but it would be better just to stick at surveys and ebay for now - Dooyoo is hard work and it does take a lot of effort. I wouldn't want you to give up on your money making because you were taking on too much at once.

    Rufus - savvy - pammyj74 - clairey and I are all on it, that I know of. If you needed a referal it would be most helpful if you asked someone for one. :) Thanks

    Morning everyone.

    Sounds like we are all still motivated, well done everyone with the surveys and toluna, I'm all up to date now.

    Doing bingoport this morning (had a little win) to free up some Ebay listing time later and looks like I will be able to redeem on Wednesday too. Will have to google the postage costs of items as before I kept listing items for less than the postage price doh!

    I know it's not a race with ebay but you should see how cluttered the house is with things I need to list, I'm best off doing it now whilst I have the motivation otherwise I will never get around to it :rotfl:

    Blog up and running (thanks Elysia for your help) just need to post on it and tweak it a little. Will update my spreadsheet later to see where I am at and start on Dooyoo again.

    Keep up the good work everyone, you're all doing so well :T

    If you go on the selling page, down where it says what you want to charge for postage there is a postage calculator. If you click on that it brings up all you need. It is acurate too. hth
