    Welcome back Aesop you've been missed.

    Sold another DVD for £4.13 profit. BIN seems to be working well so far. Can't believe somebody paid £5.94 for Geri Yoga i'm sure i only paid 99p for it years ago.

    Also got £7.27 cashback to add plus £10 petrol from neighbor.

    Best thingi ever did Aesop was stop going to the school playground. Mums are horrible!

    Had a delivery today of a comp win I wasn't expecting, 12 bottles of coconut water (yuck) and a hammock! :D I'm selling the water but keeping the hammock, I'd love to have it in my very own garden one day... :D

  • Nothing to add to the pot today but I have done some mystery shop work, surveys and other similar work which will hopefully pay off soon.

    Aesop you have made me smile, I remember a mum saying to me 'does anyone really only have one toilet these days?' and I'm like 'yeah, me.' :)

    I've just got another £37 from blogging and asking for donations for our charity journey. I've also had some freebie bottles of water to review on my blog, that must be worth a £1, I'll follow the example of other people here and add £1 to my 'savings pot' for that.

    Lots of love to you Aesop, I must say I do have an iron but am rubbish at using it, my children iron their uniforms but I can't think of much else that needs it. I know I should think a bit harder. :)

    [QUOTE=Aesop;

    am bored of people telling me to buy things and where to put them


    Hi Aesop,

    Maybe you should just tell them where to put them:rotfl:

    I have not made that much recently been too busy sorting through approx 60 boxes out of the loft. Only keeping around 10 boxes of hamper making bits including the hampers and baskets and 2 boxes for myself. Going to try and sell the rest on eBay and car boots etc.

    Have listed lots of books on We Buy Books and Zapper which I will send off at the weekend. Should be a little over £100 combined. You really need to look at which site pays the best price for each and every book. Some books varied by over £3 on the 2 sites.

    My current total for the month is £79.83 which is made up as follows:

    £60 - coins cashed in and banked
    £3 - packed lunch instead of work restaurant
    £7.53 - Money off vouchers
    £5 - Aldi refund
    £3.90 - Multi-buy savings
    40p - Sainsbury's Brand Match

    Still a way to go to reach target but hopefully the books will pay out and I can do a car boot or two before the end of the month.

    Chez x
    That money talks I don't deny, I heard it once, it said "Goodbye"

    Nat I don't blame you selling the coconut water sounds absolutely vile ! Think you would have to pay me to take it :rotfl: So really glad you have a buyer. But the hammock I would keep as well :D
    Well done on your win :)

    well done, you are doing well with your comp wins. I love coconut water. shame you are so far away, would have bought it off you.

    yay to the hammock and fingers crossed to getting your own place with a lovely garden to use that hammock in.

    13 and 14 July 2013

    about college nursery, can you ask to be put on a waiting list? in case a space pops up when you ready?

    Thanks, got a few things to list.

    I'm on the waiting list, currently no9. I'm hoping a lot of people don't turn up in August/September and a space becomes available for when I go back in October. Need a contingency plan in place though, luckily one of my friends works in a local nursery so I know its an ok one.

    No money making today, was sent home from work ill (I'm blaming the heat)

    oh well, onwards and upwards.
