That's great FDF - sometimes things sell like that and it's a great feeling!
I got £5.09 from Ciao, plus got paid for 2 invoices so have added another £150 as well. £100 of that is towards our holiday in Portugal in September, £50 is towards my 'Work Cash Cushion' for when I have no work or am off sick etc. The £5.09 has gone into my Christmas category, as with any cashback I get, or any interest earned on the account.
I should get a bit more from Ciao next week and eventually Quidco, these will also go in the Christmas category.
Next week is chocabloc but in early May want to start scouring boot sales and charity shops again, which I haven't done since the Money From Nothing challenge. I'd prob 'invest' £20 from this challenge towards doing that again.MFW #185

I have found a little money spinner
I am buying unusual cake tins at car boot sales and selling them on ebay.
I bought a house shaped one for 50p and it sold for £11.50 and I bought a Barbie shaped one for £1 and it sold for £23. :j
So unless you go to the same carboot sale as me, look out for them. If you do go to the same car boot sale as me don't look out for any, 'cause they're mine!

What sort of plates? How do you wrap them? Do you make much profit?

Well I have only bought one so far and it sold to an American, I made no money really as p&p was quite alot and I had guesstimated... but... she collect plates, and I am going to tap her on knowledge of what the US market wants, so if I see more plates, then I will know what they like...MFW #185

Just logging on to say that I have decided to put matched betting on hold until the middle of next month when my moneys sorted itself out.
Still haven't advertised french translation but have done the translation - should do that tomorrow really (knackered tonight am going to bed!!).
I'm going to the car boot I did last week on Sun and am going to arrive for 06.30 (ouch) to try and get a better pitch.
Well done to everyone who's still going!!! Our sigs are looking great - I think we should all give ourselves a HUGE pat on the back.
