    Can't help on the technical bits so just copied it and pasted it and PM'd it to you....lol.....hope it works :D

    Tried searching on ebay using title and description but still can't find anything?

    Hi Rachel and thanks for that. I have just tried the ebay search and there are 36 things on there. So when you first log in to ebay, click on advanced search, in the enter keyword box type or cut and paste the code - mseolympicchallenge, select search titles and descriptions and hey presto you will see them. If you are doing all of this already I would check the spelling of the code. Good Luck!!

  • Have any of you had any sucess selling children's VHS videos? DD has sorted out her "baby" videos for me to get rid of (mainly Teletubbies, Pingu & Tweenies). Would you Ebay them, Amazon them or just Freecycle them?

    I work at a University and the psychology department here asks for students and staff to take part in experiments, normally things like seeing a sequence on a computer screen and trying to recall it, facial recognition, things to do with words. I used to do them when I was a student and the department I'm temping in at the moment is very near the psychology building so I've been popping over in my 'lunchhour' and doing experiments - normally get £4 for 45 minutes ish - when you can be a bit flexible with your timesheet it's worth it ;). Starting a new job this week in another part of campus so this will be a source of income I'll be missing for the rest of this challenge - need to find another one now I guess :rolleyes:

    I don't think so, I am a Ciao member but haven't requested a payout - they don't owe me any more than about £1.50 :(
