  • Well done, all:beer:

    Congratulations on selling a book on Amazon, esbm:T. My booksales on there have totally dried up, nothing whatsoever for a few weeks and I've got loads listed:(.

    Just got back from doing a carboot sale in a chilly and misty field. Cleared £71.20 so am well pleased with the decluttering especially as I can now see part of the spare room carpet:j. Total in signature now adjusted. Edging nearer to my target of £1500.

    Have a good money-making week, everyone:beer:.

    Hi all,

    I didn't register for this thread when you started it at the beginning of the year as I didn't think it was possible, however I have been watching carefully and inspired by how well everyone is doing and joined in quietly on my own. I set myself a target of £750 as I thought £1000 would be difficult but I'm currently standing at £1360 and have close to 200 fewer pieces of junk in the house:D. Many thanks to the OP for starting it of and inspiring me :T:T

    Thanks - go on then, give me a number :D. I think the numbers will slow down rapidly now but I'm going to try for £2000.

    Well done, that's a brilliant result and the year still has a long way to go yet:T:T:T

    Congratulations to everyone else who has made anything lately, however small the amount. Every penny counts and it just shows what can be done if we really set our minds to it:j

    I did another car boot sale this morning, I just love them and feel really sad when the outdoor season is over. Indoor tabletop sales just aren't the same. Lovely sunny morning but a massive event with stalls stretching as far as the eye could see so a lot of competition for the buyers' hard-earned cash:(. I didn't have anything very interesting to sell, just clutter really, but made £57.20 after fees. Considering the tat I was selling:o I should be mighty pleased with that.

    Total now stands at £1402.47 out of a target of £1500 so I should make it by the end of the year even though I won't be able to do any boot sales for a few weeks because of other commitments and by the time I'm free again the season will probably be over:mad:

    Keep up the good work everyone, you're an inspiration:beer:
