    Made 40p on a matched bet today, more to add tomorrow :)

    £52 from the Bingomania link that Southerscouser posted. I'm not going to add that to my total until it's in my account, I'm still not sure it's real!

    Bloomin' heck I won £57.38 on this and I wasn't even watching the game where I won I had just left it playing. So it doesn't feel real at all! Especially as when I cashed out all I had to do was click Moneybookers and that was it. No more details seemed to be required. Was this the same for you or do I need to enter some details somewhere? Fingers crossed we both get our money :)

    Not been the best of weeks (and don't see it getting much better for next 3 either). A grand total of £4.96 raised this week! But as I've got over 50% I'm not complaining!

    But at a lot of others here did a lot of bigger items sells in first few weeks and ebay's slowed down for me too. Have 3 things finishing tomorrow, but no watchers yet so not expecting them to sell :mad:

    Away on a course in 2 weeks time so can't put anything on ebay this week, will try and get as much things onto Amazon this week and get a lot of things photographed for listing on the Thursday before I go on course, would be back in time for a 10 day listing. Bet it'll be a 10p day this thurs :mad:

    Seems surreal doesn't it. Looks as though we've both done the same thing so lets see what happens.
    I'll be checking Moneybookers every day next week :D
    Fingers & toes crossed here just so I can give BF a smug look for rolling his eyes at me ;)

    I haven't seen my boyfriend today just spoken to him on the phone but I can still tell that he rolled his eyes :D. Fingers crossed that they pay up, if not we haven't lost out.
  • I've had a slow week ebay-wise, but it was my birthday yesterday and I got some vouchers from people (distant relations) which I have sold to my F-MIL for cash! (I'm jammy). Got some cash as well so I'm well chuffed.

    Off to PM WoA my total and update my sig :)

  • Its that time of week people!

    Firstly, for those who missed the post a few days back, the Week 4 newsletter can be downloaded from:

    http://www.philltowns.co.uk/mse

    But enough of Week 4 - we're already in Week 6! Which means its time to submit your Week 5 grand total - that's all the money you've accumulated since the start of the challenge.

    I'm also collecting some other data for a little experiment. When you send me your totals, it would be good if you could tell me your star sign, whether you're left-handed or right-handed, and which part of the country you're from. If its helps, you can copy and paste the following into a PM:


    Grand total at end of week 5

    [ ]

    Star Sign

    [ ]

    Are you:

    [ ] left-handed
    [ ] right-handed


    Location

    [ ] England
    [ ] Wales
    [ ] Scotland
    [ ] Northern Ireland
    [ ] International, if so, where:__________


    Thanks WoA, you're great and obviously have both brains and beauty



    Thanks all

    WoA

    My bingo liner win money came in (£67) and a couple of ebay items. Have sold another £60 or so over the weekend but will include those in next weeks total. Halfterm is here so will probably not get much done!
