    Morning everyone,

    Been in hospital since Tuesday, out yesterday mid afternoon. To NO food in the house so after an online shop to restock fridges, freezers, cupboards. Anyway I saved £3.04 on multibuys and 7.23 on reduced price items so £10.27 to add to my sig (and savings account).

    I am upto £3.97 on geol0tto and keep doing v8 but not sure what the benefit is, does anyone know?

    Wishing everyone a profitable Monday.

    Sorry to hear you haven't been well. Hope all is good now.

    Free digs on geolotto are finishing today at 9.30 after that it is chargeable to play.

    V8 is a game to try and win v8 products. As princessmelody and I are compers, we have been playing to try to win. Just a bit of fun to break up the day.

    Not had time to catch up on all the posts since my last visit (only a couple of days ago but boy, does this thread move fast nowadays:T.

    Congratulations to anyone who has made any money over the weekend (probably all of you:rotfl:)and commiserations/hugs to those who haven't/have had unforeseen essential cash outlays or are feeling under the weather:beer:

    Car boot sale on Sunday was mega probably because the sun shone. Made £165 after fees on pure tat, even sold a set of wheeltrims/hub caps that I unearthed from the shed. Must be about 20 years old and I had 2 guys practically fighting over them:eek:

    Took friends to their gala evening on Saturday but they phoned during the evening to say someone on their table lived in their village and had offered them a lift home. Thankfully my services weren't required for the second trip:j. They had won a bottle of champagne on the raffle which they gave me yesterday. Might save it to drink when I'm debt-free but not sure if it will still be drinkable by then! I refused petrol payment for the outward journey(was OH's car anyway:rotfl:) so my friend wants to take me out for a nice lunch next week instead. That's better than the money IMO as I never go out to eat at the sort of restaurants they go to. Well, I never eat out anywhere full stop:o

    Sorry, rambling on a bit:o.

    Total for sales this weekend: £204:eek:. Going into car fund as my old heap has cost a lot more to repair this year than it's worth. Nearly time to say a reluctant goodbye to it I think.

    A few other bits of income,back later after totted up.

    have a great week everyone:beer:

    Debt-free and Proud!
    That's a superb amount, carbootcrazy- well done!

    I sold a few items on Fleabay but will add to total once sent and fees have been subtracted.

  • Thanks, Samiszel:T

    The car boot season is pretty short (and a lot of possible sales even then are pointless going to if the weather is horrible ) and I rely on making as much as I can during Spring and Summer.

    Have a good day
  • Help needed please. A lot of you sell things online and I just wonder if anyone knows of any courier offers that are on at the moment please.

    I'm sure I had an email some time ago offering the first parcel free from one of the couriers but I deleted it and can't seem to be able to retrieve it:o.

    It's a huge, heavy book, weights almost 3 kg so misses out on Royal Mail's £2.80 for up to 2kg offer. Their next price band is extortionate so I thought I'd try a 3-5 day courier but MUST get it dropped off or collected tomorrow. Going inland to Kent.

    Any speedy replies very welcome. Thanks:T
