  • I've done nothing and made nothing since end of feb, mum got ill and later passed away so my money thoughts were pushed to one side.

    Just starting to get back into some sort of normality and routine, so should start picking up again and saving the pennies to make the pounds.

    So sorry to hear your news smunchkinp :( Don't expect too much of yourself money-making-wise xx

    Can't say I've done an awful lot yet for April but I spent the weekend basically spring cleaning and organising myself (not v exciting but so good for the soul!) so I now have a pile of clothes for ebay and two old mobiles to recycle, and I made a big purchase through Quidco so have £80ish due from there whenever it comes through. Just need to keep up the momentum and get the ebay listings done!

    Wow, out of the blue a tax refund for £209 turned up in the post today to take me past the halfway point! Now standing at £1161.44 and if I can do another £122.50 before the end of the month it'll be my best month yet - good incentive to get going on the ebay and Amazon piles!

    Free listing on ebay this weekend! Nice timing for me after my Easter clearout - so glad I didn't manage to get my bum in gear to do it last night now!
