Evening all
I have a nice £100 from my good old dad to help us with food shopping today (and a £49.99 bill for school music lessons! eek)... also saved £5 on my waitrose delivery with a code so that £5 will be transferred into my house kitty.
I am going to get ebaying tonight as I seem to keep getting sidetracked... I also pursuaded hubby to drop our house hunting budget by £20,000 so that we have a cheaper monthly mortgage long term (as a safety buffer should interest rates go up...still I have a very nasty feeling about committing to a £900 per month mortgage bill but we need a house soon!)... that will be a sad day when I sign for that loan
Luck and love to all the money makers out there xxxMake £/day March: £1490.85 / £310

Hi all
Put a BIN up on the bay at 4pm it sold by 5pm :eek: Think I made a mistake and should have put it up higherI thought I had pushed my luck as it was as I paid £4 and put it up for £35 + postage.
But never mind as I am very happy with that and cant be too greedySo I will add £24 as profit as I am losing the will to live with these fees
And am not 100% sure any more :rotfl: and that's in more ways than one :rotfl:
Good luck to all

I have been keeping track of my earnings on my blog and made £501.35 in week 1 of september
am well chuffed with that! and so far this week have made £179.57
That makes my total £680.92 so far - been trying to save for buying oil while its a bit cheaper and i want to order 900l instead of 500 so i save on that too - it should be about £500 odds but have a few other things to pay this week first - hopefully will be able to order by the end of the weekI love being able to pay like this now - no having to pay every month anymore

Added £5.74 to include eBay sale after fees (working it out, hoping I'm getting it right, but under estimating if anything) a massive 82p from Cash4Clothes and 20p from selling a greetings card to a colleague.
I'd relisted item after buyer changed mind and it sold for more than £3 more. Go me
My daughters also chose 2 birthday cards for a friend from the frankly rubbish stash I have -- to save buying new ones, I'm not counting that as anything towards this total but quietly pleased this helped today be an NSD.
Have 14 low value items ending on eBay at the weekend, need to get my act together to put some stuff on local selling page on Facebook, as well as sending off vintage camera to a friend.
My mum has agreed to buy some left over Euros from me so hope to sort that possibly tomorrow.
I do hope to get to £300 this month -- it may not happen if cashback and other contributions don't happen quickly enough, so we'll see. Feels like more of a slog this month, possibly because I'm knackered from working anyway
Also, my daughters did their first stint at a cleaning job this weekend, they are getting £10 a week each for what should be an hour of work each, it took them an hour and a half each but I think they'll get quicker. I've been told they did a brilliant job and that it was better than the usual person. So that's looking good, I hope it can continue for a good whileNot adding anything to the total here for this but like you said Aesop it helps take the pressure off me, they're also giving me stuff to eBay.
Good luck all, nearly at half way for September xx0 -
I really need to get my act together this month to get anywhere near £260! Had a good read and catch up on what everyone else is doing, really motivating! Can't wait to get home from work tonight to start digging through some stuff to ebay!0

£10 Fabulous Bingo referral to add, bringing my total to £242.13.
I've booked a MS for Saturday that should net me a bit more, and I've booked a mystery dining visit for Friday night - no fee but a very generous reimbursement, so that'll be a nice date night.
The *telesales* are going extremely well now. I've got a regular who spends £30 per day (so one hour) with me, and I've been asked to do a long term project, reading some fiction and that should net me a very nice amount - probably £30 per chapter. I'm up to £112, so just a few more days and I can cash out £150.
I've let Apptrailers slide for about 5 days this month which I'm annoyed at myself about so I'm going to aim for 2 days worth of points today.
And finally, I had an email last night to tell me that I'd won a £250 Murad skincare set! Who spends £250 on skincare? I'm lucky if I spend £25 a year.I like to make money
Best wins: £3,000 luxury holiday, holiday in Cornwall, £250 Murad Skincare hamper, angle grinder
:j Make £10 a day challenger - it pays for trips to Florida! :j

I have a few bits to add today. I got my first ever £5 amazon voucher from SB today. I've only been signed up for two and a half years! I also had £1.38 left in amazon vouchers that I had forgotten about. I did the price guarantee and got 85p. I forgot that I got free delivery at the beginning of the month so will add the £3 saved there. £2.40 in eBay sales and £6.33 from a book sale on amazon. £18.96 altogether.0
