More stuff gone today so 40 to add and I now have made 222.
I listed some more stuff this afternoon and already had enquirers. Gosh, it gets quite addictive doesn't it?

I have a veg plot in the garden and I'm surprise about just how little veg Ineed to buy in the summer when everything is productive. This year I won't grow anything because we'll be moving so I'll miss that but hopefully in our new place I'll be able to get a few veggies in.

Just had a long chat with friend and ended up telling her how much I disliked her boyfriend... whoops. Turns out I was right to dislike him. he has become controlling and telling her not to do things and what to do, etc. not good :mad:

Hopefully she'll see through him, although it may take quite a long time.

Sold 2 for about £13 between them and just about $5 on the poker, but still very slow here too.

I really need to share this, I'm blown away!
At the end of November I was wearing a dress which i bought from NEXT over 12 months before. It was virtually disintergrating on my body all the seams were fraying open.
With my money saving head on, I took it back and chances my arm.
They offered to refund me the sale reduced price as I had no receipt. I argued that it was on my credit account so that would act as the receipt. And requested a full refund. The manager came down and said think yourself lucky it's over 12 months old. I stuck to my guns and they sent it to their returns department. For them to deal with . so after a few weeks of emails back and to with the directory I got an email today, apologising for the service I received and given a full refund and wait for it .... An extra £20 as an apology.!!!!

Before lurking on this thread I would have just chucked it in the bin. So thank you every one x

Well done that is awesome. I used to work in Primark and I spoke to one of the managers about stuff like this and the law states that an item can be returned for a full refund if fails within a reasonable period of time. Reasonable period of time is obviously a matter of opinion so you do have a lot of wiggle room to argue these things. You should be very proud :T:T:T:T

I use Neobux too - i haven't added a penny to it and have made over $200 (though i keep reinvesting it and not withdrawn any yet) I'm using it as a way to sort out a regular income for later and would happily recommend it!

That is what I am trying to do with it as well. I only put $10 in as I am a bit impatient and I wanted to get going. I am making a huge 20c a day profit at the moment but I am hoping things will pick up as I get more referrals. I think it seems like a good one so far x

Just as I was feeling optimistic about the directory delivery jobs that are likely to come up this next few months I find out that Thomson's aren't publishing their directory any more and won't be needing distributors this year:(.

It's only one of the jobs, the others should be safe;), but it was the easiest of the lot as the books were so small and light. So that's about £130 I won't be able to count on. Must make more effort with other ways to raise some extra cash instead;)

clydesale bank are offering incentives to switch.

I wouldn't bother. I'm still waiting for them to pay mine and keep getting fobbed off with excuses / conflicting information every time I call to chase it up. Not to mention their online banking is truly awful

If I don't get my bonus next week I'm shutting the account and going back to Halifax. They ain't gonna keep me if they ain't gonna pay me.

Guys I've had a wonderful day.

Streaming video games on Twitch (I was playing Theme Hospital, if anyone remembers that blast from the past :rotfl: ) and I got 3 separate donations from viewers to the tune of £29! :eek: One of them sent me £20!

Also my Amazon vouchers came through from that electrical safety interview with BBC radio Scotland I did and it's... £25! I was only expecting another tenner maybe because it was all of a 5 minute phone call :j

£291.42 / 310 (13.88 / day)

Twitch is like a social media site for gamers. You can play video games and broadcast it live on the internet (live video). People watch you and talk to you as you're playing via a text-based chat.

3 of the people watching decided to give me money today through paypal. Donating on twitch is a really common thing. If you're watching a stream and you like it you can send a bit of money their way. Sort of like a "thank you for taking the time and effort to provide an entertainment service"

For some people, streaming games on twitch is a full time job and they have thousands of followers and get hundreds of £ a day in donations it's insane.

So basically I played a game for a few hours, people watched it, some of them gave me money.

My son would love that. He watches youtube of minecraft and then I can hear him pretending to be playing and talking to his youtube viewers :rotfl:
