    Good Morning! Hope everyone has had a good week - sounds like those totals are adding up nicely and well done to those that have made target already. :D

    I have got around £100 ish profit in ebay sales to add to total, but I need to retrieve the post office receipts from yesterday and deduct postage, paypal and ebay fee's and stick the info on my spreadsheet to work out actual profit so will update total later.

    Sales got a massive boost as I sold a coast dress for £70. It was new with tags and has sat in my wardrobe for nearly 3 years! Also sold an animal surf top for £17 which I was a bit shocked about as it is used and I only paid £8 for it new in the sale.

    Not counting my chickens until buyers have received items. I find that clothes sales can give you a headache sometimes when people have spent a bit of money because when they get it and it does not fit etc etc they try all sorts to get a refund. So am hoping for hassle free transactions!

    Plan for today is to get more ebay listings done. Had a wardrobe clearout and got a box of stuff to shift. Am trying to get my head around the postage increases at the end of the month. Am going to try and be good and weigh each item as I have made a few silly errors underestimating postage this month.

    Have a good day everyone! :cool:

    Thanks Monkeynut :) Yes, I've got a SP sausage, thanks. That's a great way to think about the Dominos takeaways. I only ever order if I can get at least 35% off, but the end cost is still more than I've made from surveys all year! :eek: (not that I've put much effort in this year). You've inspired me to start a mini challenge. I am now only going to have a Dominos once I can pay for it in survey money - not only will it save me a fortune and help with the (so called, lol) diet, it might give me a bit more motivation to get on with the surveys.

    Well my jobs for today are, to finish my Tesco order as I didn't manage it last night, and to get 2 SP sausages, as it seems like you don't really get anywhere unless you have at least 2. I'll try my luck on the sausage board and will go round to my mums and get her signed up with it. I'm not sure if she'll carry on using it, but it will help me out either way :).

    make sure your Mum fills in her basic profile, you need that to be able to get to platinum.

    Lolly definitely try and get 2 sausage as I haven't got any and being stuck on basic membership it is taking ages to get point plus I can't cash out until I reach 2500.

    £56.56 in ebay sales to add :j also Swabbuxs have put £6.60 in my paypal and I made £1 from a sale on a local fb selling group.
    Just realise I only need to make £5.55 to hit target!

    October make £10 a day - £183.90/155 :j

    Have you tried the sausage board? You can only post once, but you can edit your posts if you get referrals that are worth extra points, I've been told that the extra points ones always get used, so it's worth doing :).

    not everyone that has signed up underneath me with a basic profile has. And I still win points if they win points.

    But the person I signed up under, was clever, they made their photo tiny! So it is on their profile, but very very small :D, so maybe you could do this for your mum, if you find you don't get 100 spins a day by not adding it. But try without first and hopefully you won't need to.
