Thanks thats very kind, I think for now I'm going to walk away and try and understand what I've read tonight then look at it fresh again tomorrow!

well done everyone :j

I am getting withdrawal symptons not PMing WOA with my total. I think the next couple of weeks will be quiet for me as I am having a couple of weeks off from ebay so not sure how else extra money will turn up but you never know.

lyric_grace - try downloading the spreadsheets and playing with some of the figures posted on the tips thread, that's what made it click for me.

I'm just wondering whether to post some sim cards and vouchers I have on Ebay - not sure how much return I'd get from them though.
Anyone know when the next cheap listings day is?

Well this week i've managed to make it over the £100 mark :j

Ebay sales £29.23
Found £0.20
Sky points used £5.00
1/2 extra worked £1.87
Interest £0.39

Total made this week £36.69 that brings my grand total this week up to £127.13 :j

I know im no where near my target for Bronze but its £127.13 that i wouldn't have if i hadn't started this challenge.

Will really need to try to do something else to up my target but don't really have much time between my 2 jobs to do anything else apart from sleep!!!!

Will have to try harder. I do have some overtime due in my wages next week which i'll be able to add to my total and a few other items finishing on ebay... just need to list the rest of the 20 odd boxes cluttering up my house

Lyricgrace...........I'm also neither thick nor bad at maths (although I'm a footie fanatic), but I also struggled with matched betting. Dan and misskool's endless patience helped me to get it in the end, but it took a while! I think everyone struggles so keep at it. As Gemmzie (I think) suggested, run endless examples through the matcher spreadsheets - this also went a long way to helping me understand how the odds worked.

After a very slow and shaky start, I passed the £1,000 barrier last night and added another £80+ today....it's worth persevering!!!! Good luck

Gemmzie....5p listing day next Wednesday + free gallery IF offering free postage....so make sure you work the postage into your starting price.

What a weekend!! Have made no progress what so ever on the challenge but my hands are covered in blisters and I ache from head to foot!!!
Spent all day friday gardening, all night ripping out the unit in the lounge and moving the pc, trying to fight through the jungle of wiring!!
Saturday my step dad decided to flood my lounge and dining room by thinkinghe could tkae the rad off the wall...covering everything in black water. Hope my laminate is going to be ok else its a job for the house insurance!!!
Today I have been cooking since 10am as my family were over for dinner and me being me couldn't just do a chilli or casserole..no I had to do an indian buffet involving 9 different dishes, all vegetarian, most deep or shallow fried, none of which I have cooked before!!! All good fun!!!

Found £1.50 under the computer desk when I moved it though!! woohoo!!!!

Hope everyones had a good weekend, I'm off to bed...I'm exhausted!!

Thanks, I think a couple of the items are just codes so I could always scan them in and not post them anyway

There are some odd T&C's to this cheap listing day so make sure you read them before listing anything - I'd hate to be responsible for someone getting charged full fee!!

Just a quick question. I have £20 off in Tesco vouchers, could I put these on ebay?
