I just re-read it, but missed the extra bit you added on here so thanks for that (again - you should be on commission for the number of times you've had to help me!).
Still, hit my target for the day, and not that far off on My Survey so should have another £10 Amazon voucher towards my Kindle soon!

Hi all,
not posted for a bit. Things aint great on the savings front and my total will be lower this month.
On the plus side, I have paid towards some of my debts and got some things sorted, so hopefully things should improve soon.
Its gonna be an expensive few months so I amtrying to be prepared for it.
Well done everyone who has recently joined, this challenge can really change your attitude to spending and be really motivating.
Well done to those who are sticking with it too. The total is great.
Forgot to add savings when I shopped last week. All the prepared fruit was reduced so I got loads of it and froze it, I saved £15.50 on cherries, which the kids ate in 3 days, £9.39 on avacados and £12.90 on mangos. Also saved approx £6 on multibuys. I was amazed. Will add this to my total.🎄PAYDBXMAS21 #11 £11,300/£11300

Not been on for ages so busy due to family commitments.
I've had a job to keep up with all my surveys from VO, my survey etc. Have missed a few deadlines unfortunately.
I'm just counting cash received through ebay selling old clothes, toys etc. and vouchers received from surveys.
I did hit it lucky when clearing out looking for stuff to put on ebay found some old / broken jewellery. Added this to a gold coin I was given years ago and managed to make £492.30 through Hatton Garden Metals (I read about them their own thread on the up your income board). :j
Just joined swagbucks through referrers board. Will try anything as rapidly running out of decent stuff to ebay!!!!0 -
Having a reasonably good month so far. Biggest earner is my new online jewellery shop I've launched off the back of my blog, made over £100 with it so far this month.
If anyone is thinking of selling new or good quality vintage/second hand clothes or jewellery online, I'd recommend ASOS marketplace. It's where I'm selling through and I think most of my sales are from people browsing the site and not from blog readers (as I have a discount code on my blog and barely any orders have used it.) It's a 10% fee on every purchase (not including postage) so pretty similar to using eBay buy-it-now, but without the extra BIN charge.
I've made almost £50 on eBay this month too. Can't wait to get home from uni at Easter and list all the junk I've got lying around and make some more!
I've just found out I've got a job for after graduationSo de-cluttering via eBay will help me downsize for moving out into my own place in July, and having enough money to do so!

Wowsers, well done you!
Can you sell ''normal'' second hand clothed on ASOS, or is it just vintage stuff ?
I need to get my list of things sorted for e-bay though. Bit of advice needed regarding e-bay actually. I had a lady last year, who didn't receive a book from me so I refunded her. She left me feedback saying how wonderful it was that I had refunded her, and that I was always prompt answering her e-mails etc and that she would use me again - which was great, but the next few people all then claimed that they hadn't received theres! There's no way that so many parcels had gone astray, but I had to refund them anyway and now my rating has dropped.
I've kind of lost faith a bit in e-bay, as they weren't even interested in my side of the story, or the proof of postage documents I had.
I'm debating starting selling again, but advising that the books (which is what it was mainly) will only be sent registered / recorded post. Does anyone know how much this might cost, or if it's worth it ?
