    Morning all, thanks for the hugs xx

    I think I'm being too hard on myself where this extra money making malarkey is concerned, I've looked back at my totals and can see the huge difference I've made.

    Happy Sunday everyone, I'm hoping to feel a bit more lively as the day goes on -- so much to do!

    And last night I dreamed about finding money in the street!
  • I've done a bit better this week, £24.04 from TCB, found £3 lurking in my paypal from a PC survey and finally redeemed £5 AGC on SBs - lost my mojo on that site and it took about 2 months to get there!

    Also done two manic overtime shifts which will bag me quite a nice amount in November!
  • Overtime, Roadkill, Fleebay, a £25 M&S Voucher and a £1.75 Morrisons Voucher have netted me a cool £143.36 this week. Much better than last week. Fleebay is still slow and not producing good results but will keep at.

    11 more days to go!

    another wee survey completed on GTM - now on 665/1000 :)

    Some ebay listings finishing today so fingers crossed for some last minute bidding.....might try and add a few more listings today if the photo upload thing working!

    Still struggling with motivation but trying to keep plodding along :)

    1p roadkill found in Tescos and 2 wombled receipts that we're waiting in checking. BUT! Yesterday I found the first piece of jewellery I have found in ages......a battered and beaten gold earring that was swept up in a corner with leaves and other rubbish. It has gone in my scrap pile and I'll trade it in once I have a few more bits and pieces to add to it. Today though, I outdid myself. I found a pristine condition signed Swarovski brooch. Came home, googled it, and discovered that it retailed for almost £80 when new. Yeah, it's currently on EBay!

    I'm gonna have to ask this......lol..... are you actually hunting through leaves and stuff? I'm just wondering how you saw the earring :D

    Really nice finds though :) keep it up :)

    Lol! No but I have thought about it! The earring was tucked between one of those electric box things and a car park machine. It had gone between and tucked itself back with a lot of leaves and rubbish. It was sitting at the front if the rubbish but most people would have missed it. I made a point of looking into the gap because I knew it was a good place for coins. It wouldnt have attracted much attention anyway i dont think, but being a bit of a jewellery nut, i knew when i saw it that there was a good chance it was gold. I have found a fair bit of jewellery over the years but none recently so I was quite chuffed to find it.
