    Well shop and scan want your data from your weekly shopping. So you would be spending money anyway and getting paid for it.

    Consumer Pulse want to know about clothes, toiletries you have purchased. You can still input and get points if you haven't hought anything lately byt they willexpect some data from you.

    Other survey sites lije valued opinions, panelbase net just ask you questions abput something and pay you.

    Swagbucks ans gifthulk you perform tasks like watching bvideos to earn points.
  • So sorry I haven't been posting, all a bit hectic plus I think I may have over subscribed to the challenges, so I was a bit daunted by the updates I needed to do! :rotfl:

    Well, my ebaying went really well, plus another book sold on Amazon, so my total is a £138.56 this month. Unless another book pops in, I don't think I'll make anymore this month, have listed another box of academic books today in the hope there's still some studens still looking for their text books! They seem to go for a good price when they do go, so I figure its worth keeping them listed, and it's not a hardship to list on Amazon. I did look into the Amazon trade-in, but the prices were a lot lower, one quoted £3-something for a book which had a lowest used price of £18! Reckon its worth waiting ... Til the book mountain takes over!

    Just updating with £102.67 profit on ebay (sold 14 items).

    Could kick myself as made a couple of rookie mistakes on postage charges as I "guessed" a few based on what other sellers were charging as I could not be bothered weighing everything before listing it. That mistake cost me £12.10 in total due to underestimated charges - duh!!! It was heavier items that had just tipped into the next price brace that did me. So, check your weights if you aren't sure BEFORE listing!

    Just waiting on 1 more payment of £7.50 so will add that when it lands.

    Signed up to one poll last night (thanks to those who posted about it on here).

    Debt-free and Proud!
    eBay finished over the weekend. So far cleared 12.17 after fees! It has gone straight off my credit card. Total is now £45.75/£210. But I am expecting someone to turn up today to buy an old guitar - and if they come that will be £260 in the bag and I will make the target. I'm not going to tempt fate so will record it if and when the money is in my hand!
