    I've made £30 from doing some market research and one item I put on ebay yesterday has sold already for £14 profit. Can anyone tell me how to put the secret code onto ebay in white? I found lots of other colours, but not white.

    I don't get how to put the code in in white either - can Turbo lister do it?

  • I done mine in turbo lister. If you click on description builder, then the menu bar at the top where you select which font etc there is a pallette icon. CLick on that and select the white box. If you type the code first then make sure it is highlighted before changing colour, just as you would do with word.
    I'm not sure how to do it without using turbo lister as its been over a year since I've done it!
  • Thanks monki-man, I will get there in the end afterall its only the first week!

    Another book sold on amazon today won't get much for it but every little helps. Well done to everyone who's started amazoning for this challenge you're all doing great :T (i've been selling on there for just over a year now). Will update total after I've posted the book

    Booked a mystery shopping visit last night, a few weeks off but like to know I've got some stuff planned.

    Tonight I'm going to make sure all the books etc. I have are listed somewhere at least as with moving house I don't think they all are and review prices etc.

    Didn't list on ebay yesterday in the end thought I'd leave it as I didn't get home til 10.30. but have taken an empty box from work to start a box with.

    Going to look out for any R+Rs in tescos tonight - have looked a bit before but never got anything but I'm determind to find things (to sell on) and I've also started entering competitions - target is 14 a day at least (100 a week) again for things to sell on or give as gifts etc.

    A pretty slow first week for me but I'm really demotivated with things atm so this challenge is really helping thanks everyone

    R+R is refund and retain, if you get charged more for an item in tescos that the price label/shelf edge label etc., says you can get the whole money you spent back and keep the item (pay at the checkouts then go to customer services to do the refund). There's a couple of threads about it in quick grab it while you can, products people have found that are wrong, tips etc.
