    Yaayyyy! I can finally add to this thread.

    Off the starting blocks with;
    £17.14 EBay
    £8.00 mystery shop
    £29.44 Quidco

    Should be able to add some overtime tomorrow too :-)

    Well done, Nintud:T. Off to a great start there
  • Hi all! Just updating with a few bits:

    $1.85 Apptrailers
    $5.42 from selling a sewing pattern on Craftsy

    I've also got quite a bit of stuff on eBay, some of which finished last night, but I need to work out postage, etc. My total should look a bit healthier then!

    I have to say, I started all my listings off at £0.99 this time, and it's definitely generated so much more interest and better final prices than starting with higher prices.
