£6 on fleabay. Very confused. Buyer submitted an offer for £4, I countered with £5, then they went ahead and bought at the full price of £6?!

It's been a strange day on the bay

Well they say 'There's nowt as queer as folks' :rotfl:

Evening all


Well done again to all those making monies :T


Had a quiet day today. Tried a few surveys but screened out So just £2.50 to add from my weekly scans.


I need to get a wriggle on if I'm going to hit target as I don't have 'stuff' to sell.


Hope you all have a money-making Monday

Could someone tell me how much I'd have to input into receipt hog to cashout the min? Also which shopping apps might be worth trying.

I've not been counting money saved from my 6 months of free Prime... should I be? Or for switching my energy because even though I'm saving £15 a month over what I *would* be paying if I didn't switch, it's the same amount I was already paying before so...

Also don't count multibuy savings, reductions, sales etc. Probably earning way more money than I think if I started doing that :rotfl:

Not sure about 'Prime' - you would have to check with Aesop.


I count everything, except groceries, drinks and household consumables (different challenge/budgets) where I save/make money.


So count using vouchers, special offers, sales, reductions, points (such as Nectar) when I use them so long as it is something I would be buying anyway. I count in savings if I shop around and get a better deal on things like insurances because I've 'earned' that saving.


On the same basis, I also add in cash-back, interest on savings and investments, mystery shops, shopping scans, surveys and road-kill.


The way I see it is that if I just didn't bother to do any of these things, then I wouldn't have that money to put into savings and holidays - and to be honest wouldn't have either otherwise.


Sorry for long post about me

That's a fab offer CBC, especially if you have any higher value items. I haven't had the offer, but I must get my bum in gear and get ready just in case I do get it because, as you say, it's valid for a short space of time.

I have a Canon DSLR camera that I've not used for ages and been thinking about parting with it. If I got that offer I definitely would!! I should anyway but I'll wait to see if I get a offer first.

Yes that £1 FVF is a good offer I got it too and just had seven expensive items finish so I can relist under that one About £550 between them so If I sell one or two that will be handy !

minimum is 1000 points for £3 amazon.

you can only input 20 receipts per 7 days, as I found out yesterday, try to input too many and it says receipt threshold reached. they also have a limit off 3 receipts for same shop per day.

my advice.... womble high value receipts and put them in! you earn so many points for a range on your receipt, will get phone in a second.

you also earn spins for some receipts and if you introduce friends who sign up with your referral, then you earn spins. with the spins you can earn more coins, so makes it a bit faster.

I cashed out recently and am on 300 points. am going to go for amazon this time as paypal is 1500 points.

but I am on level 11.

I say only include the savings if you actually save the cash, ie you can physically take it and put it into savings, pay bills/debt/holidays etc. otherwise it is virtual savings really. which should be applauded but I don't count it unless you can physically count it.

Hi It just happened that the offers were for things that I needed so I stocked up on things like dishwasher tablets to take advantage of the offers. Bought the maximum number of items of each type so did have to invest quite a bit but now have a store cupboard full of items that I would have had to buy over next few months

shoppingapps, try checkoutsmart, quidco and topcashback.
