    Just popping in to say 'hello' and well done to everyone:beer:. What brilliant results are being recorded, and lots of lovely new ideas for making money practically every time I look in. What a pity I don't have/can't afford to buy and run a smartphone or tablet or anything that runs these fabulous apps I keep seeing mentioned. Just have to rely on a second-hand laptop:o

    Nothing extra to report this month, have had a 'funny' few days with OH having to have a medical procedure on his foot and subsequent follow-up daily dressings etc at the clinic. My car is kaput (gearbox problem) so I've had to ferry him hither and yon in his new car (well, nearly new 2nd hand) that he only got last week. He's very critical of my driving so not the fun experience it could have been driving something other than a rust-bucket. At least it hasn't cost me anything for petrol this time:rotfl:.

    Aesop, am sending you a PM in a mo about the postal survey you mentioned a while ago. Can't find if there was any follow-up on the thread and am in a bit of a hurry so hope you don't mind a PM.

    Have a great money-making weekend, everyone:beer:. I envy any potential car booters as the sun is shining here, I've got loads of stuff to sell but no vehicle for the next week at least:mad:

    sorry to hear about hubby. nothing worse than driving with them next to you. i hate driving with hubby he always tells me what to do although usually I disagree with him.

    get better soon mr carbootcrazy

    yes, got PM and replied.

    ok, will need to find more moneymaking things for people with just pcs.

    but if at any time you can scrape some pennies together here is some cheap phone and tablet

    http://www.tesco.com/direct/ee-alcatel-pop-c1-black/559-6175.prd and don't forget to go through topcashback for extra points. you can do click and collect so no postage fees. Currently at £25

    currently £28.99 and in more colours than just pink :D


    I have one on watch with camelcamelcamel in case price drops further while i save amazon vouchers to buy it, I want it for my son.
  • :(I have not done as well as I wanted, but it has a lot to do with having my paypal hacked and having to change all my passwords as well as setting up my husband's business for him.

    So far I have made £22 from fb sells
    £10 from selling seedlings.
    £13.80 from euro lotto win
    £2.48 from an eBay sell
    £20 from Vivitac (does not come until May though so does it count?)

    I have about £100 of stuff on eBay and another £45 on fb, but no one seems to want to buy.

    Total of £68.28 so far. A little on the sad side. I need to work harder next month.:(

    sorry to hear about paypal being hacked googleyeyes :(

    best of luck with Mr googleyeyes' business

    Personally most of us don't count cash until it is actually in our account/hands as there is a chance that you may never receive it.

    sorry posted without saying, well done on your totals! brilliant. and no amount is too small, it is all extra money, more than you had before!
  • Thank you for the advice I will remove it from my total for now, but it will mean I am £20 up for May already :D
