    still waiting for all my eBay auctions to end...do you guys usually list for 7 days or would you recommend more/less?

    Just had £59.06 track on Quidco so on to a good start I hope :D

    I always do 10 days starting Thursdays ending a week Sunday. eBay staff recommended this to me for the highest sale prices. Sunday evenings are the busiest period on eBay and running an auction over two weekends gets you plenty of hits. If I need to do a quicker auction I would do 7 days Sunday to Sunday
    Not been here in years! Hi everyone. Make £10 a day challenge = £78.45/155

    1) Do the majority of you post cash back totals when they track or when it hits your account? I know you can do either but just wanted to see what most people prefer.

    2) I know that you can get some bingo sites that do (or did) free scratch cards, do these still exist and if so what are the best ones to use?

    Thanks in advance :)

    oh no! sorry to hear about laptop and camera!

    I only list my cashback when it is paid, as not all my cashback actually gets paid. ie free sim cards, if I forget to activate, they don't pay out cashback.

    there are bingo sites... I use s*n b!ngo, they have myst!c meg and I still play J*ckpot J*y the fishing game.

    hi, will add you to the 2nd post on the first page.

    You can count the money any way you want, but I would just leave it as a rolling total for the month, so £20 to start with :)

    good luck

    I've just found out that I'll be getting a bonus and some free shares at the end of this month which will more than cover me for this month and a few more but I won't count it in my total or it might make me try less hard.
    It's made my week though! :)

    I've been taking photos this evening to get back onto ebay selling!Will hopefully put them on at some point over the weekend.

    I'm so sorry! :( pleasedelete, I thanked all the posts as I added everyone to page 1, but have been having problems with my laptop, so that may have been the day it crashed and I had to start again.

    nat - so sorry!
