wow just checked after reading your post and have sold one game and 1 gameboy to same buyer, you must have a lucky effect. Thanks, just made £21 for the challenge

Well done Annie - we always found Amazon the easiest - often stuff was listed then I'd look and wonder what had happened - only to find it had been snapped up immediately. At ne time sn would seel his used games after Xmas then buy more second hand which would keep him going till his Birthday!

Charlie - I never leave vouchers sitting there. I always redeem them - if you get love2shop or a major highstreet store, they are less likely to go bust. I had £20 in vouchers sitting in ips0s waiting for them to mount up - then one day around September they just closed my account, and the vouchers were gone.

Arrggghhh 3 times I've tried to post and it keeps vanishing!!!!!

Lets try again.....

Thanks for the great challenges Elysia

* Will have a look through the list but i think I am on most of them already.

*I have an old account that we don't use so will wake that up for saving.

*really don't have much to put on ebay but will give it a go

*This is my fave as it has just reminded me that I haven't opened last years!! Going to do it tomorrow.

Nearly finished filling out my spreadsheet and realised that I am up to redeem on valued ops so that is £10 on Amazon to start me off in 2012

Wishing you all a great night and a happy, healthy, money making 2012.

Stepmum - well done on not opening your pot yet. When mine got full, I didn't bother emptying it, and starting again, so I only had £40. I had £100 last year.

Charlie - I like your style.

Slm - well done on the voucher - I'd say save me a matchmaker, but if they are orange you can keep them.

Roland - I've never tried Amazon - but if it's as easy/good as you say, I might be tempted to give it a go.

So what's everyone's new year resolutions? I'm losing weight (already started - gone down 3 dress sizes in 6 weeks), open my folksy shop (already opened - I'm putting on my first item to sell tomorrow ) and I'm going to try and keep in touch with my Facebook friends more often. (I'm terrible at logging on).

Five minutes and counting, but I'm logging off now, so Goodnight,and I wish every one of you a Happy and Healthy New Year.

Elysia - Thats fantastic well done! Mine is the same, and i vow to use my exercise boke atleast 3 times a week for atleast 30 mins... I say the same every year lol, but got my holiday to think about now too!

Hope the year brings everyone lots of happiness and joy! (and a man for me lmao)
