    Please pop me down for £10 a day. I need to focus this month. Am i right that eBay items can be listed to start months away & then date can be changed when free listing comes up. I cannot believe postage is going up again!!! I think I'll do another amazon trade in order too this month :rotfl::j;)
    July £10 a day Challenge= £0 / £310

    Royal Mail have announced their price increase starting from April 2nd. Could have been worse, smaller and lighter panels remain unchanged but there is now a size guide for parcels. Anything over 8cm thick cost quite a bit more to post so careful with the shoes!

    I send shoes via courier. £4.99 and in a box, so no issues. I have sold shoes before, DH's size 12 boots that he didn't like and the person who bought them paid the £4.99 and left good feedback.

    Hi,

    I'd love to join in please. First time I've done anything like this but I'm going to be optimistic!

    Stick me down for £10 per day please. Good luck everyone!!

    :hello: Keiths1985 and welcome.

    Are you already signed upto survey companies? Do you do things like Topcashback and Quidco? Everyone is cashing in on them right now as they are offering money back on your shopping, limited items but still good to have money back :)

    Do you belong to consumer pulse, shop and scan? Pinecone?

    Do you have things around the home that you no longer need/watch/listen to?

    Check out the first post for ideas on how to get money from your items, from ebay, to musicmagpie, zapper, amazon, etc.

    If you are not sure of anything, please ask. Do join in and read as people post what they are doing and this gives us all ideas.

    didn't get around to adding myself in Feb, but I only managed £139 anyway...

    well done for still attempting the challenge on your own. As we always say that was £139 more than you had the beginning of the month :D

    Thanks everyone for your kind comments. Even after just a week of little or no computer I'm feeling much better. Logged in today to discover I've been invited to join Royal Mail panels so that's another earning opportunity :) Also been credited for joining Screenwise. I have just claimed 2x£10 Amazon and 1x Homebase. When the Homebase one arrives I will have enough to get the rest of the paper for the dining room. That will just leave paint and decorator to pay for. We are expecting a little money from my MIL's Will sometime later this year so that should cover those. I won't set myself a target this month but will just log whatever I earn when I feel up to it.

    thanks, Lea xx

    hello and welcome Lea. Hope you managed to get the shoes.
