    Yesterday I managed a £2 coin in my savings pot and 20p spare change from purse - little bit disapointed that I didn't make my £5 but at least it's something. I did list 14 things on Ebay so fingers crossed they will all sell for a good price.

    Today so far I've saved a £2 coin in my savings pot and am hoping to get a few more things listed on Ebay to make the most of the last day of the free listing weekend. Unfortunately no surveys have come my way over the weekend but hopefully any Ebay sales will make up for that.

    Just about to start the long old haul of listing things on ebay.... it really annoys me the amount of time that has to go into it to list, to package, to post but I know it's worth it in the end! And no doubt I will spend most of the evenings this week checking how they're doing! Have even set up a little spreadsheet to work out the profit after fees, postage and envelopes etc!

    Doing well on last weeks 4 items that end tomorrow night - 41 watchers and 11 bids, but totals only £10.09 so far. Hope there's a bidding war in the last minute or so :)

    Have a great day ebaying folks!! :heart2:

    Hi all,

    I've been quite busy the past few days, no rest for those trying to become richer eh? I've managed to get 100 items on eBay with some relisting and having photographed and written descriptions for everything over the past few weeks. I've got 4 ending tonight and 1 tomorrow night, so here's hoping for a little boost. Things keep selling on Amazon and Play atm though :D
    I like to make money
    Best wins: £3,000 luxury holiday, holiday in Cornwall, £250 Murad Skincare hamper, angle grinder


    :j Make £10 a day challenger - it pays for trips to Florida! :j

    Not been doing too well on this yet but doing surveys etc religiously so hopefully something to put on soon.

    However, today we bought stuff for baby and I used a *ton* of coupons - so can I add those savings?

    Listing on ebay also so hopefully next Sat there'll be some profit :)

    Ta,
