    If you're not worried about what you get for them, you can always try Zapper. You just pop in the barcodes - it accepts some, then post them off.

    Otherwise:

    Job lots on eBay
    Local Facebook selling groups
    Gumtree

    Fab, thanks for this, I shall try elsewhere. I really just want to get rid of them as they are taking up space and I'm on a major declutter at the moment! :D

    Right, I'm up to £270.70. I've got around £15 in Paypal once I've paid for postage (will confirm tonight). Waiting for a £4 MS payment (yes....£4 LOL) that was sent on the 25th and I redeemed £10 from AppXpert but getting that tomorrow is a long shot.

    I've got a £5 unpaid item case on eBay and £7.50 sale from last night that hasn't paid.

    So I might possibly JUST squeeze through. I'm going to focus on AppTrailers today to see if that will tip me over the edge. If anyone has any fantastic ideas then I'd love to hear them!

    I just had to share what i have just done and most of you guys will know exactly how hard this was for me.......

    I had a box of greeting cards which i had been struggling to sell at the car boot for 10p each so today i took a huge deep breath and with box in hand went into the local shop and asked very casually if they might be interested in buying them very cheap - i had 300 odd cards and just swapped them for £30 :D:D delighted and also rather proud of myself for going through with it! think i now need a lie down though LOLOLOL!

  • I think I'm going to declare for this month, didn't reach target but I know I've been really slack on getting sales stuff listed. I did have the right intentions on Sunday but discovered that I'd left my camera switched on and the battery had run out. D'OH! Can't afford a new battery until tomorrow, so that's scuppered that for this week :(

    But anyway, I've still made the best part of a hundred quid extra, which is all good stuff!

    £3.74 cashback from 123 account.

    Well worth switching my DDs to them plus the £55 cashback has finally been paid this month. Quicker than expected.

    Hello, just popping in for some advice. I have quite a few books advertised on amazon and they are just not selling. I keep putting them as the lowest price, but that doesn't make any difference. Can anyone suggest somewhere else to advertise them.

    Thanks very much. x

    If you try Zapper also try Webuybooks.co.uk as I found they often pay a little more and if you look online you should be able to find a voucher which will up your offer by 10%. I found checking both sites and taking the best offer for each book worked well. It takes a bit more time but in some cases it was really worth it

    I sent off 3 small boxes of books (free courier) and received £85.85 in my bank 7 days later. My second batch of books, which they originally did not want, was sent off today so another £17.60 to go in the pot next month.

    I have not added up all of my totals for this month but will do this tomorrow and update then. I think I'm going to be a little short of my target but its all extra money so I won't lose any sleep over it.

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