    Hey HB, good luck!! I did really well last month (only took part last 2 weeks) so i'm working hard on ebay. Got a slow start due to auctions only starting the last 2 days BUT fingers crossed i have a nice steady load of sales over the next 2-3 weeks.

    Hi,


    This is my first month... I was given a £5 M & S voucher yesterday - does this count or is it cash only?

    Just made another £11.62 payment off mortgage from fb sales :) I made more but need to leave some in my bank account for now as due to make my normal mortgage payment tomorrow (which i'm not counting for this challenge)

    £151.62/500 so far

    I have now listed 14 items on ebay - something i have not done for quite a while i must admit and am hoping to max out that account at 100 items this month if i can.

    Trying to get to cash out on bubblews and adding a few £ to my survey accounts as well if i can, again both have been getting neglected for a while so we will see if i can get back into doing those.

    Good going so far everyone :D don't worry if its slow to start with when you are new to the challenge, it often takes a little time to build a bit of momentum ;)

    I really do need to get back to Ebaying - I kind of lost my nerve after reading some of the horror stories about buyers on the Ebay and Amazon board, even though I have never personally had any problems myself! Stupid, I know! I'm definitely going to get a couple of items up for sale over the weekend.
