    Hi,

    I'm thinking of joining this challenge in August. I'll use the time between now and then to sign up to ebay and to investigate and sign up to survey sites, etc. I also need to figure out if the new Dooyoo points system is worth it..-anyone tried the new system?).

    Just wanted to say well done to everyone for your mind-bendingly impressive totals so far for July, and to let you know I will be joining you all next month. :D

    Also going to start paying more attention when I'm out and about because I never see coins and I'm the least observant person ever - but it all adds up!

    Cherryprint.
    Not buying any more 1.)books 2.)toiletries, esp. LUSH! 3.)stationery, unless absolutely necessary!

    I knew the last days of the month would count for everyone :j
    I sold something on Ebay mid month and the buyer never collected, another guy emailed me checking it had definitely sold, emailed him and he came and collected today and paid £200 :j:j So I made more than I would have through Ebay as I didnt pay any fees ;)
    Naughty i know!!

    So have smashed my target!!! £248.36!!! One off as I dont have lots of £200 items lying around the house.....if only :rotfl:

    Well done everyone, have already got 17 items listed on Ebay ready for the August challenge, they all 99p's but it all helps!

    Xx

    Did well on ebay tonight- £92 although this looks pretty pathetic in comparison to MissKaytee's total!

    So £943.35 for the month and still expecting some student dosh :D:D

    Oh, this means I've smashed my £30 a day target! :j :j
    £20k in 2023 = £2718 £2023 in 2023 = £196.41 Grocery challenge £250= £195.80 **MONEY MAKES ME HAPPY**

    Hi Everybody

    After fees and postage I made £35 on ebay last night.

    I really do hope the weather stays ok at weekend as I want to do a car boot sale.

  • It has been ages since I updated. Feeling quite guilty. However I have still been making money. So in the last week or so I have made £102 on ebay, £3 from surveys, and £40 from expenses. I got paid £70 back but my petrol only cost £30 so I'm counting the other 40 as profit. I must drive more economically than I thought. Bonus!
