    I need to look into the clarity card. Could be another £10 per month (£5 each for myself and hubby).

    It works for me Thrifty, I put all my monthly spending on it, then have a DD set up to pay it off in full so don't pay any interest. Think it's also one of the recommended cards for spending overseas as there's no charge for using it at an ATM (though you obviously get charged the interest straight away when withdrawing cash) and if you're paying for goods abroad you get the 'perfect exchange rate' rather than whatever the retailer feels like charging at that time.

    If you do decide to apply, make sure it's the right one as H*lifax offer a few CC's that all look quite similar but offer different 'benefits' (if there is ever such a thing with cc's :p)

    I have finished work early so I am going to find 5 things and list them on ebay now.
    £60 expences winging their way to my bank account. I know I spent the money but I'm going to count it as I don't always claim them back! Suprising how quickly the odd trip adds up!!

    I took two small items of gold (ring and a cross & chain ) to the jewellers to sell instead of ebaying - I got £30.00 which was more than I was expecting because they weren't very substantial! Also another 50p from Quidco!:money:

    Hi Everybody

    I have been reading the thread and really would love to join. I know I am a little late but I have started to declutter and over the past week I have:

    Sold items on ebay to the value of £20
    Sebt some really junk cd to magpie and have received £15...

    Aprilshower

    Thanks for the post Aprilshower, never heard of magpie before. I've a few old cds that are gathering dust, i'll have to look into this :T.
    ..... Also finished all the information for kisstel so can start working for them tonight (the joys of insomnia lol)

    Jobs tomorrow - Must clean car and take to brothers garage so I can sell it been putting it off for days, Tell sky to reduce my TV subscription right down, cancel Weight Watchers DD as I am going to do it from home for a while, Work for business, get a few hours in for kisstel....

    Hi debnmatilda, i had a look at the kisstel website. Are you doing the texting or chatlines? I used to do texting a few years ago for another company. Wouldn't mind doing it again as it was quite fun :) but the pay was depressingly low for the effort put in. Plus i started to suffer from pains in my wrist and hands from all the typing :cool:. Sorry to be negative :o, good luck with your first shift :). Would be interested in knowing how you get on :beer:.

    Thank you Aesop, hotspur_pam and ebayqueen with your thanks I feel like I am being checked up on you guys are really inspiring me to keep going. :)

    That's great news on your extra earnings, Tebheag :T and thanks for the kind words. Reading your posts and other helps to keep me motivated too :beer:.

    I've 1 MS arranged for tomorrow and i'm in 2 minds about booking a fast food visit. I ate so many burgers, fries etc last month that i was starting to feel awful in myself. Felt bloated physically and sluggish mentally. I really need to start eating more healthy. Ho hum, i'll sleep on it and see how i feel in the morning.

    Have a good evening peeps :D.

    Gosh this board is moving fast, im struggling to keep up!

    £30.12 to add today :)

    Visited the local Carboot sale this morning, it was very disappointing, seems like it was all traders and no genuine carbooters :( so no bargains, then went for a stroll around some Charity shops :eek: at the prices they ask for stuff these days.


    Decide to start collecting saving stamps for T£sco, so £2 to get me started :)

    Im off now over to the up your income boards, see if i can pick up any new ideas for extra money making :D
