  • Not much to officially add but listed a few things on ebay today so fingers crossed something will sell! I've also had a claim for netflix cashback going on for months which has finally been resolved - hurray, still not payable but hopefully by the end of the month. Also plodding on with the SBs.

    So, nothing to add but things on the boil!

    £5 from a Facebook sale this morning, should have someone coming any minute now with another £10 for me, and someone a bit later with another £10 :D (though the last person has bought from me a few times before, and although she always does come, it's sometimes rearranged a couple of times first so I may not be able to add that for a few days yet, we'll see.)
    Few bits earmarked for Ebay bit later on, but nothing else to report. Done a few Mystery Shops in the last week, only low paid ones but better than nothing! Will give my total a little boost at some point.

    Oooh, knock at the door as I type, so another £10 in my hand from the Facebook person who was due now! Love it when people turn up when they say they will, and I only put that toy on this afternoon. If only they were all that smooth and simple :)

    Oh and a couple of Amazon sales after nothing for months 2 in 2 days. Luckily still got the book as I almost threw it out a couple of days ago after trying it for £1 then 50p on Facebook, and even offering it on our local Free group with no interest :rotfl: £3 odd after Amazon fees :j Will add once posted :cool:

  • Hello all,

    Well did my second car boot sale today after the success of last week. Goodness it was freezing! But it sunnied up after a while.

    Made £77 in total after the entrance fee but most of that was on behalf of my sister. So only made £25 for myself. Still it's £25 I didn't have this morning, so I'm content with that. Plus the massive benefit of clearing out and having a tidy.

    Next time might try an indoor one!!

    Hope everyone else is getting on okay. Can you believe it's halfway through October already.

    It's my birthday tomorrow so apart from a bit of ebaying tonight I think I'll have the day off moneymaking. Unless birthday money counts? Here's hoping I get some!!

  • I have DVDs and books to get rid of so was going to try and sell them - where is the best place to make money from them? Maybe ebay or music magpie? Never used music magpie before but heard some good things.. not sure they take books though hmm..

    Apart from that, I should have more to add to my total in a few days from Ebay.. Got quite a few bids already :D

    Yep :D Just say you didn't have your Clubcard with you last time, and they will pop them on.
    It'll get addictive :o:rotfl: it's when you see a big long receipt on the ground in the carpark, and you have to assess how many people are around, and whether it's worth the embarrassment of wombling it, when they might have used their Clubcard anyway!! Though I womble them all these days when I won't look to trampy :rotfl: I used to only pick up the long receipts where they had bought lots so would be more points, but now I take them from Self Service tills where people have spent a couple of £s on milk and bread! I use them for the Rewards so they are worth 3 or 4 times anyway, and they all add up. Every little helps ;)

    Woohoo, NotAlwaysReliableToTurnUpFirstTimeFacebookBuyerLady turned up as arranged, so another crisp £10 in my hand :j Well, it's in the pot, but it was in my hand for 30 seconds :D
    Sundays seem to be a good day for Facebook sales, but we are usually busy so don't get on there to put stuff on or 'bump' it! But £25 sold today, so very pleased.
