Got a letter from tax credits saying they owe me about £300, which is lovely but baffling as they've been telling me for months I will need to pay back thousands!
Tax credits are a law upon them selves.
I had a similar situation as few years ago when I nasty letter stating I owe the tax office 14K:eek: even tho, I am PAYE.:mad:
The next week I has a 1k cheque in the post. Eh, doesn't 1 dept. talk to another.. sigh..
Anyway, I appealed, they said it was just 10k I owe now. That's was a few years ago, I still haven't had any more horrible letters from them..

so far this month I have done really well, I remember this time last year nothing was selling during the nice weather, and everyone seemed to be saying the same,
So far this month I have sold earned :-
Ebay sales.................220.04
Etsy sales..................137.50
Amazon........................3.30
I know I said I was going to try a little harder this month but I didn't expect things to go this well, mind you I have been working very hard to promote myself on etsy, seems it takes a while to get established on there, it's not like ebay were you can just list and forget.Ebay 13........1583.46/2000.00 Amazon sales 54/50 Etsy sales 63/50

That's good work,
How do you find Etsy? Is it mainly UK or American buyers?
I was toying with the idea of Etsy, but not too sure.. Any advice?It's not the despair, Laura. I can take the despair. It's the hope I can't stand. ~ Brian Stimpson, Clockwise0 -
