  • Hi everyone.

    I'm up to £118.29 now, but most of that was in the first 3 weeks. I've been slacking for the last couple of weeks.

    Sent a dvd to CEX yesterday, so that will be £15 if they accept it. I'll count it when I get the cheque. I've got another to list on Amazon and I'll do that today.

    Have a good day.

    another £50 added to my total for selling 2 of my daughters dance costumes ( hope the others sell too ) nothing else done this week and I start my new job next week so I will be away for 2 weeks on training so its going to be a very slow month for me :rolleyes:

    If I count right it is now week 5 and have had 4 1/2 weeks without a working computer:mad:
    So I have a huge lot of catching up to do!
    I didn't realise how much I relied on this to both make & spend money!!

    Never mind - i kow I need to play catch up but have 'cashed in' £3.86 quidco, £30.00 pigsback, £12 from the panel that you can't mention & £5 from I can't remeber & £32.50 from 50p tin - still got loose change to count.
    So that's a total of £83.36.

    Will try to list a lot of fat lass summer clothes on ebay tomorrow in the hope that we have a summer eventually.

    DH's insurance is due so should get a few quidco £s for that & have plans to get a new cc & daily clicks etc so folks will be up with you big money raisers soon!!

  • £1.19 out of pockets in the laundry basket. :D
    My family have been warned that if they put anything for washing without checking the pockets, it's going in the challenge pot. :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
    Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times and I'll smash your face in. :D

    nothing to add to my challenge but very pleased everyone is doing well. I did win a picnic hamper (a posh one with china etc) so if I do sell that I will add it to the total.

  • I'm really doing terrible at this - must get myself into gear! Got a load of stuff to ebay but can't get turbolister to load onto my laptop - not sure if its something to do with having Vista (everything else seems to be a problem with this so I'm guessing thats the problem!)

    Anyone wanna give me a virtual kick up the @rse? Feel free to pm any stern words to me, anyone!!
    :D GOD BLESS DURAN DURAN :D

    Spendaholic - very soft fluffy virtual kicks coming your way! :rotfl: Can't do more, sorry!

    I'm still wondering about my Tesco vouchers - do I count 'em at face value of £16, or spend value on deals of £64 - I'm gunning for £64 myself.

    Plus, I had two great Amazon sales over the last two days - a CD for £4 net and a *comic* for £10 net - that science fiction tut eventually sells, and some of it for nice prices. I *know* I'll never read that comic again, its just taking up space. If I knew then what I know now.............:o
