    I have a few eBay sales to add but will add them in one go when I withdraw from PayPal.

    I've decided to speculate to accumulate and spent £1265 on something that should see me bringing in a good income for the foreseeable. Patience is needed as it'll take a year or two to get the original money back. I was very mse and paid using my credit card as its 0% and earned me a lot of tesco points :D and I will pay it off in full on my next statement :)

    Very intrigued as to what you bought... I am going to guess bouncy castle!

    Ive £7 to add from facebook sale and £5 from ebay and £3 for some baby foods brought in Boots with my points.

    Thanks for voting for Connor Suzi, he's now only just clinging on to 3rd place, so every vote counts at the minute. Only the top 3 go through to the next round.

    Not much money making for me at the moment as I'm now on to my 3rd day in hospital. I've miscarried my twins at 12 weeks, lost too much blood and I'm on a drip :(:(. Been too ill to even watch the tv in hospital, but last night was determined to watch the Big Brother final (sad or what!). Was fully intending on paying for a tv card but MIL bought me one, so I'm going to add the £5 I would have spent because it makes me feel like I'm doing something!

    So Sorry to hear your news - i really hope you feel physically better soon and emotionally in time too. I can't believe you are thinking about this challenge from your hospital bed!! Now thats dedication!! Take care of yourself xxxxx

    Refund of £3.27 coming from Argos for an item I ordered months ago but they decided was discontinued. Completely forgot to chase it up so it was a pleasant surprise.

    I'm hoping that the SLC pay my loan on time as its all going in the house moving fund (meant to be paid on Friday)

    Still gutting the house. Dont want to start packing until formal mortgage offer is through, so for now its all cleaning, gutting and selling. Thankfully my nesting instinct is helping with the cleaning aspect.

    Gold will definitely be posted tomorrow as I need to go to the post office anyway.

    I've added £1.50 as I sold some old greetings cards to a friend at work (I took a box in with odds and ends from a good few years and have more to shift -- some are Phoenix cards from years back and others are ones that were bought but never used usually through forgetting I'd bought them or temporarily mislaying them!) I know it's only £1.50 but after trying to sell them at 3 car boots and one church fair, I'm very happy to have shifted some, at 30p a time. I'm going to keep going rather than trying as a job lot on eBay as they're a very odd selection. I've also listed a load of pink envelopes left over from wedding invites. . .

    Added (cough) 10p found in the boot of my car while getting spare tyre after my neighbour spotted I had a flat one, am lucky to have such kind neighbours, another neighbour then changed it for me, so no garage fees there! Will need to get spare swapped over though so that's an unplanned for expense :(

    Was given a load of nail varnish that I'm going to sell and my friend said she wants to give me what she has left from car boots as she doesn't want to do another one, I said I'd give her the money but she wouldn't hear of it as I would be the one spending time selling it, so that's all good :)

    You'll soon give up with the rm surveys, takes a lot of work for only a tenners worth of stamps a month. I managed 6 months, I gave in when they asked that I send a letter and parcel everyday inc Sunday's at the same time from various locations for a month. The £10 wouldn't of even covered petrol!

    I would love to tell you all what I'm up to but the Ex reads the thread and there's some things he just doesn't need to know ;):D I'll let you know in a year if it's paid off :D

    Just sold another item on eBay for £15, all helping with the holiday spends. Deffo doing a car boot this weekend as my students leave on sunday morning :j and I've been offered some help. I feel like del boy as I've got a load of phone and iPad covers to flog as well as body shop stuff :D just call me Trotter ;)

    Also, remember a few months ago I had a refund from Tesco for my broken Hoover as Vax wouldn't exchange due to 'lost' paperwork? Well, I've only gone and had an email from UPS saying a 20kg parcel is on its way to me from Vax! :D so with any luck I'll have a new Hoover and a refund :D:D I'll sell it if it does show up as I bought a dyson instead a few months ago :D that should get me about £50 ;)
