    It depends what books I think. For example a couple of my books show up as 1p being the cheapest, and because I like to be the cheapest to get quick sale it isn't worth it this way, so I put these ones on ebay. A lot wont sell anyway, in which case I may do a car boot (although can't see me doing one now until weather is better!) Im adding £53.59 from sales of books on Amazon, I was the cheapest for all of them and they had only been listed on Sunday. Postage was £12 though and they only charged the buyer £2.80 for each book. So had they have sold for 1p I would have been out of pocket (sorry for the waffle!)

    I cant remember where I am up to with my BINs and what I have added and what I haven't oops.

    I'm not doing too well at all.

    Never seem to have enough time on my hands these days.

    Ebay's been very disappointing for me of late. I only managed to relist 6 items which didn't sell last time round.

    Have made 75p from an Amazon sale and saved £ 5 at Tesco using a Sainsburys voucher.

    Must be positive !

    Have just seen the advert for Asdas price guarantee, and it said that anyone who used the price check this week (I think) will also get a £5 off £40 shop. I don't tend to get much in Asda, and when I do it's usually just one or 2 bits, but I regularly go to the other shops in the retail park where our Asda is, so I will be keeping my eyes peeled in the trolleys and on the ground for a receipt to womble, as I presume Tesco should accept these ones too :D

    Really pleased with our food shopping the last couple of weeks, we have been using up bits from the freezer and cupboards for dinners (have loads of sausages and burgers from when Asda were selling off a huge bags of BBQ packs for £1) so we haven't had to do a proper shop for a while, and I have been very disciplined when I've had to pop in for milk and bread, and only got things we actually need!

    I'm adding £20 from Consumer Pulse/Shop and Scan - can't remember which now!! :D
    I have a good 3 weeks worth of Ebay profits to work out, so will do that as otherwise I am very behind for the month at the moment. Not sure why I keep putting off and off working it all out, it's not difficult I just haven't been ars*d!! :o
