Catherine, my DS is going through huge growth spurt. His feet grew a whole size, but he wouldn't tell me he needed new shoes. Thought it was time I got him measured and yep, needed new shoes.
He liked his new shoes at the time, chose them out of the limited range, he has big feet! NOW refuses to wear them as he doesn't like them and keeps putting his old ones back on!
Anyhow, have you checked Freecycle/Freegle/Netmums (noticeboard, nearly new) in your area? People give away clothes their kids have grown out of, sometimes brand new! And netmums you can buy cheaply.
Sorry to hear about your Dad, hugs.0 -

Thanks. I have looked but as he is 6-7 no one ever seems to have any to hand - down / sell on I figure it is the age of football, scuffed shoes and ripped knees! I will use the tax credits before they stop in April to replace the shoes etc and hope for an ebay miracle! I have a few coats and evening gowns etc I can sell on to make some extra clothes money...failing that I could always 'Von-trapp' the Sitting Room curtains and make the boys matching Lederhosen like in the Sound of Music :rotfl:Make £/day March: £1490.85 / £310

oh don't you just reminded me... I watched superscrimpers tonight, some good tips in there, and they took a pair of men's pin stripe trousers and made them into a dress, this was during the war. It looked really good, but I can't sew for toffee!0 -
Hello All,
Hugs to you and your Dad, Catherine -- I'll keep fingers crossed that you get plenty of bidding wars to raise the cash you need.
Another sleep disturbed night here, so dabbling in free bingo and just withdrew a profit of £14.80 from Sing Bingo. (Should be writing or listing but I'm way too tired for either).

Thanks for the welcome back _party_
Nothing to add so far today but i do have a couple of Questions...

ROBOFORM...think thats what its called, can you set it so it just saves passwords for sites of your choosing? and not all banking passwords ect...wouldnt like the other half poking about in my online banking !!
Nat, one of the last convos i remember since i was last on board the challenge was You were going all out on the Comps..Hows it been going?...Have you won owt
First job for me today is create a new Email address and FB account for all thing MSE :money:
Hope everyone has a cracking dayEveryday im shufflin':dance: Proud Padder ~ All Hail The Power of Pad0 -
Hi MissKaytee,
With roboform you choose which passwords you want it to save, but you can also password protect all your passwords, so no one can see them
I am loving the PayPal card makes life easier. It comes straight out of PayPal, you cant request it, they offer it to you.0 -

Right...money making! £20 amazon vouchers to add from ipsos, down to 300 points again so i hope i get some surveys along soon!
I've had a bit of trouble with the new touchpoints survey i'm doing for ipsos on my phone, so they are going to be giving me £40 amazon instead of £35 for inconvience, which is good of them. I MIGHT get that through in time for this month. Hope so! Also agreed to run another program on my phone for a month for £10, but that won't be through till next month.
No more auctions ending till Thursday so nothing to be made on ebay.
Ohh... just remembered.... I nice shiny £2 coin i found yesterday which the sofa had eaten from DH's jeans :rotfl: Mine now!
Right.... off to update my £22Have a nice day everyone :beer:
