Whoop! 5p is 5p! Definitely learned the hard way that the small amounts add up - now is the time to learn in a positive way that the small amounts add up! :A

Your right :j tis hard to look at the little amounts when everyone is doing fab!

I end up paying off little bits as well.. so i feel silly and fighting a losing battle lol

I have £28 to add from a pair of free headphones I got at a launch night of a bar I went to. Pretty good as my last ones broke and when I checked Amazon, these free ones were meant to be £45 but were on sale for £28!

Apart from that doing pretty badly this month. Came back from my holiday a day later than planned because my boyfriend was told incorrect information about his visa (he's a non EU national) and even though they let him into Germany, they now won't let him leave! So I've had to spend hundreds getting a new plane ticket for myself, extra nights at hotels and then getting his English right to remain visa sent express to him today. What an expensive nightmare

Hopefully he'll be back on Tuesday or Wednesday now (more money to spend for another plane ticket)

So I'm going to have to work damn hard for the rest of this month to make the money back. Good job it's free listing on ebay this weekend!

Sorry to hear you been in hospital again Rosie! Hope you get your positivity back again soon xxxx

I just opened a shop on Etsy this morning

I have had one before a very long time ago so it was a bit odd starting it again. :eek:

I got a link for 40 free listings if anyone else wants to try it for free (i get 40 free listings too) i would def have used someone else's link had i known

Oooh and i won £1.58 on free bingo this morning

Feeling a bit tired of money making atm :eek::eek::eek: didn't think i would ever have said that :rotfl::rotfl: but hopefully i can force myself to list a few things on the bay (have 19 spaces to fill to max account)

You are not losing Raggy - you are making progress. It might be slower than you would like but it is all in the right direction. You are doing it!! :T

What a nightmare! Sorry you had to deal with that! Is there anyone you can complain to because he was told incorrect information about his visa? I hope he's back soon.

That's great but did you know Coinstar charges you 8.9 pence per pound counted? I just save up my change and use it to pay for shopping at the self service till when it's not busy to save money.
