The Olympic Challenge Take Two

racer256

Ebay items are going tonight so when I get paid from them I will add them and update my total.Joeyjac I would wait until the money is sitting in your account earning interest then you can count it. I have £65 sitting in Quidco but can't count it until it's in my account. Best to opt to have it paid via BACS rather than Paypal fees.Good Luck everyone with their items tonight. x

hi all:)

id like to join the challenge and go for bronze. gemmzie i have sent you a PM.

i think i would like to use the money towards christmas prezzies and car tax which runs out in december (i buy 12 month to save money). also my MOT is due early january which i should have enough money for as i put a little away each week for car costs but in case my car needs work doing on it, it would be nice to have more of a cushion:)

i will be sending all money made to my A&L savings account.

my item sold on ebay, got £3.98 after fees and postage, better than nothing! annoyingly item weighed 501 grammes taking it 1 gram into next price bracket :mad: Oh well.

i've got some money due from quidco, it says at the end of the month. Should i wait until this is in my account before i count it?

Re: Quidco - It needs to be in your account as you never know when it will actually pay out. And it'd be awful if you counted it twice and found yourself short at the end

That sounds like a good idea, I think I'll keep it seperate for now, then include it at the end

Cheers

Ebay sales £45-07 have not included postage costs, simply sale price.

I always take off fees and postage otherwise it feels like im spending my own money to make money for the challenge (hope that makes sense) it soon all mounts up by the time you take off postage, ebay fees and paypal fees!

also I would forget to include the money in my normal budget as it would be something I would overlook when remembering what I had spent money on
