A couple of very small sales on Ebay and a £5 free bet today. Will add to my total when I work out what it comes to after fees.
Think I am going to struggle to get the £300 in the bank this month, although I am racking up the overtime and should hit next months target easily.
Think I will head to the car boot sale tomorrow, see if I can pick up a few things that I think will sell on Ebay. Also going to sort through some of my craft stuff that I haven't used in a while and see if there is anything I could sell (beads, jewellery wire) Anyone sell through Facebook. Never tried and not too sure how I would go about it0 -

Morning all, good luck for the last week, for me, yet again it's a week when I had in mind to do a car boot but I'm just too tired and have stuff to sort out at work, it's going to have to be July now as I'm working next week.
Looking at my mahoosive total for this month, without the big big amount I have counted from my dad towards a bill, I'm at £234, with £50-ish still to come from mystery shops. So that's £16 off £300, this has really made me see that £300 continues to be a realistic target for me despite feeling it's getting harder as stuff to sell dwindles. I think I'm going to make around £5 after fees off a DVD today on eBay if they pay. I'm going to put a collection only item on tonight -- never done that before, if this sells, that will definitely take me past £300 raised.
I did a deal yesterday where a friend told me she has some suits to sell and I've agreed to do it for her so that will be a nice little addition for next month, she was going to do it via someone she knows who takes 40 per cent from overall eBay price gained, I thought that was steep but she said she was happy with that so I should have the same percentage. Not sure how I feel about this, not sure if it's a fair amount, but then there is work involved! They are smart work suits from Debenhams that haven't been worn and some still with tags etc so touch wood could sell well.

Been absent for so long, and really not been focused.
However, have cashout another £3 from surveys, and had £5.50 sitting in a cash back site I'd forgotton about.
Am looking around and comparing travel insurance as well to save as much as I can, as last year I did an annual cover and only went away once. Typical.

Crazy Clothes challenge £300/£48 and 5 months /0 without spending :T0 -
Bought a few bits at the car boot to have a go at selling. Total of £7.50 spent on a dress, 2 jackets, a pair of shoes and a top.
Discovered one of the jackets has a few marks on the back when I got it home so that will probably go to the charity shop, but hopefully might make a few quid on the others.
Trouble is I also bought a few bits for myself at the car bootie, so not really very MSE!!!0 -
£6.40 after fees for Saving Mr Banks on DVD on eBay.0

Back from holiday, having had the best time ever - the sun smiled on me in so many ways this week. However, I've put on a pound (and had so much fun doing it that I don't regret an ounce of it
) and spent a bit more than I'd have liked to, so it's time to start knuckling down on the money making/saving front and thinking about my poor neglected waistline again.
The purchase today of a yellow-stickered chocolate fudge cake only meets half of my aim, but baby steps and all that...
I probably won't meet my teeny-tiny target this month, but for today I can add £2.18 from the A$da Price Guarantee and 50p from Qmee, so at least things are moving in the right direction.
Chuffed to bits to read of Mrs Cautious's gains on the new bathroom front, but sorry to hear of your redundancy, Aesop. I too hope that it opens great new possibilities for youDecember 'Make £10 A Day' Challenge - £1.82/£155.000
