    £15.18 from Qu1dco, plus £50.33 profit from eBay, making £65.51/£300 so far. I think the sun is tempting me to go out and play today, making tomorrow a case of "must do eBay"... There's some productive listing going on here!

    Hello everyone

    £5.88 on ebay last night. Small amount but lots of them add up to a substantial total for me.

    Need to get ebaying today! Weather lovely though so will leave until later on.

    OMG, thanks to this challenge I finally did the car boot I've been meaning to do for ages and we made £261:eek: We had a lot of stuff to sell and most of the money came from selling some rings but still really happy with it. Had tried to sell the rings before at second hand places and jewellers but they weren't interested, so didn't hold out much hope, but was suprised when someone bought the whole lot. Didn't get quite as much for them as I wantd, but I was happy to get something for them to put towards our debt, rather than having them sitting round in the drawer.

    So that is a total of £269.64 so far this month :j:j:j

    Rushing in with my totals so far £67.64 and listed some stuff on ebay today, got my £5 reward, and £20 quidCo, and my neice owes me some money for a phone £10, so not doing too badly, 2nd month at this challenge and it's helping my bank account as my job doesn't look too safe but who knows.

    Good luck to everyone.

    Now are you sure you don't all want to up that £10 a day as younare doing so well?

    I have been away. Unexpectedly was given £140 towards the cost of the room. Not sure if that counts.
