    hi guys,

    trying to earn some extra cash for when my house sale completes, coz need as much as possible to spend refurbishing it

    what are you guys generally selling on eBay? stuff you've already got or are you buying stuff to sell on for a profit?

    what do you think the most profitable survey sites are, in terms of how much time you have to spend on them to get the money

    i signed up to swagbucks but it doesn't look that good so far - you need 700 points to get $5 paypal payment. which is prob about £2 after the paypal fee and conversion. I've only got 77 points in 2 days. is it really as bad as it seems?

    thanks

    I find swagbucks to ba a good earner, I tend to save up the 849 points and get the £5 amazon credit, it works out better. It isn't thequickest earner, but from daily poll and NOSO each day as well as searching I can get about £5-£10 a month.

    I've hit a block on superpoints, can't get aa second person to join, and points coming in very slowly.
    Thanks to everyone who posts competitions

    Made £65 from freelancing and Swagbucks this month, am recovering from knee surgery so can't really make too much at the moment :(

    Onwards and upwards - aiming for three figures in April!!

    Well done everyone for March!
