    Phew, everyone's being so proactive!! I'm going to post some books on amazon and I did an 1hr and a half overtime - not sure how much that's worth. Otherwise been doing my clickthrough's with pigsback and quidco. A grand total of 50p so far!! Ha ha!!
  • are there clickthroughs with quidco? must admit havent read much about it, just been using it for insurance and hmv at the moment
    finally debt free and want to keep it that way!!
  • (off sick from work which is handy ).

    I find those days are always handy for ebaying!!!

  • sorry to ask so many questions but how does amazon fair up for selling dvds?

    I want to sell a dvd that is around £6 on there, if I sold it for that how much would I make? (as I said sorry to keep asking, so used to ebay!!)

    You're all so busy you're putting me to shame. I've hardly done anything beyond my normal Amazon stuff - and I'd already done all the listing! Anyway, I've sold another couple of books on Amazon - my payment goes in on Wednesday (nice timing!) and I'll be able to add another £30 ish to my amount.

    I will do a matched bet tomorrow and I'll list some more books on Amazon in a bit - that will make me feel less of a lazy slob!

    Sold 2 more free books today (one from x-library stock and another from hubbys friend) - total updated. I've worked out that £3k divided by 167 (days of challenge) is £17.96 a day. Yay I'm on target. (for now) someone correct me if I'm wrong please.
    Keep going guys only 165 days left:eek:

    Hi i've sold a book on amazon today :j Only listed it last night so am chuffed. Some ebay bit I got as freebies are doing better than i thought already and they've still got 5 days to go.
    Can I ask a question about the challenge (sorry if this has been said before:o ). Do we have to save the whole of the money till the end because I wanted to get up to £500 for a start and pay off my next catalogue as it has the highest apr and then the next one and so on. Is this ok as long as I keep a running total :D
    Thanks gem xx

    You would pay approx 55p postage and obviously fees so about a £1 in total - you would make about £5.
    HTH
  • I was hoping to save up mine until the end of the challenge, not sure what others are doing though, did notice someone else said they were going to use the money and just keep a running total of the money made.

    In the mse way in sure it would be best to use the money if you really need to!

    Thanks for the reply annie! (will thank you properly when your thanks button appears!!)

    Your money can be in a virtual pot- so spend it when and if you need to. On the last challenge someone had major unexpected car repairs and her challenge money paid for it:T . It's your money - use it wisely. Last challenge mine was virtual but this time I am putting it all into a savings account and then at the end I will pay off something with it.
    Good luck
