There is a thread dedicated to it on the Up your Income Board, although be sure to read the first few posts first, as one of the skills involved is observation and making sure you read things thoroughly! (ie the job briefs, instructions and reports). It's not generally appreciated when people jump in at the end of the thread and ask really vague questions that have been answered in the First posts!!
It's definitely not any sort of get rich quick scheme, and fees are rapidly decreasing, but it's nice for some extra pocket money and some freebies.
There are a couple of people on the thread who do it full time, but they travel far and put in a LOT of hours to make enough money!Half of November Make £10 a Day Challenge: £51/ £1700 -
Just chased up Mr A as free delivery and refund still not showing on account so they are doing now
They are also refunding me for some mushrooms which I won't count as I still need to buy them - and they are refunding me an overcharge of £3.36 on another item which I will add.
Still need to check price guarantee on this order so could still be more money to come back to meAchieve FIRE/Mortgage Neutrality in 2030

You could still have a look and sign up with some and have a look at the type of jobs. Some are pretty straightforward, and you can subtly make notes on your phone when you're in the shop, and it will just look like you're texting. Then the info you need is all there for you when you get home. Obviously it depends on the extent that your memory isn't the best as to what you would be able to do.Half of November Make £10 a Day Challenge: £51/ £1700 -

£3.41 from folksy.
Having a really bad time with an ebay dispute, the buyer I've mentioned a few times who didn't pay for ages, tried to INR the next day and wanted to return it for a refund as soon as they got it but still hasn't returned it. They're getting nastier by the day and as much as I reassure them they'll get their money back as soon as they return it, they'd rather just keep trying to bully it out of me. I actually wish I was in a position to just let her have the refund now because another day of waking up to an inbox full of abuse is going to do me in, but I can't afford to give stuff away like that. Just having one of those days (weeks/months) where I can't really deal with it right now. Sorry for the whinge!Oct £10 a day challenge £225.19/£310Sept £10 a day challenge: £272.13/£300Debt £1951.97/£21540 -

Dont worry muffins, thats why Im having time away from ebay. They are just out to get something for nothing, stand your ground. If it gets too much, close the laptop, walk away, have a drink, then go back to it and take the bull by the horns. Have they opened a case against you for not refunding?£20k in 2023 = £2718 £2023 in 2023 = £196.41 Grocery challenge £250= £195.80 **MONEY MAKES ME HAPPY**0 -
