    My wine is supposed to arrive t/m but I'm not holding my breath.

    I should get my MS payments as well - I'll see if I'm paid for the aborted one.

    On PA I'm waiting for a 70p payment to clear and I then stand at £19.80 - ooh so nearly at pay-out :rotfl:
    Lx
    Pleased to say my free £40 box of wine arrived promptly and undamaged. :T
    Received my MS payments including the fee for the aborted one :j
    Two surveys on PA taken me well over the £20 but waiting for them to clear so can't add them yet.

    I did quite well on surveys today as well - £6.70 :D

    So, all in all, total looking a bit more reasonable but still short yet for the month - I'm still chugging :rotfl:

    Hope you all have a fantastic Friday

    I'm still lurking :)

    I've earned $5 swags, $3 forest people, $1 checkpoints, $5 Bing.

    Such a slow month for me :(

    Well done though - at least it's some extra monies in your pocket :T Some months are like that.

    I have claimed £20.10 from PA, there's £10 from the pine tree peoples and £11 from panel plus another £3.80 from surveys

    I'm really trying to make it this month - slowly pulling it in, but it's like trying to land a whale :rotfl:

    Hope you all have a lovely weekend, and those with a Bank Holiday manage to see some sunshine

    I've had a £30 voucher through, so have added that to the pot. I'm less than £10 away now, not including Dh's overtime! :j

  • Well, although I dislike doing it, I've bitten the bullet and got 5 things listed on eBay:j. Very small beer compared with other people's listing and selling but I'm well chuffed. Even if they sell I won't make much but I'll do anything to get the £10 promotional bonus:rotfl:.


    Would have listed more:eek: but my camera has had it and I don't have a smartphone with a camera. I need to rely on scans so can really only put pics of flattish stuff in my listings. I don't know about anyone else on here but I'd never buy anything myself from a listing without a photo so I assume others feel the same about buying from mine.


    Have had a quick look on eBay this morning and there are loads of cheap used digital cameras for sale. Might go mad and treat myself to one. After all, it's a necessity for my eBay listing. I might try to sell more if I could take photos of the items. You've got to speculate to accumulate, as the saying goes;)

    so I was thinking I only need a little more and can cash out on crowdolgy and close my account for good.

    Just go a survey worth 24p and it is to do with alcohol testing and if I do the whole thing I will get paid around £10..... so I will keep going with a bit longer me thinks.
  • Too busy rabbiting about cameras that I forgot to mention I collected 2 X £5 vouchers at Morrisons yesterday:j.


    I know what you mean about it's like trying to land a whale, Lynne:T. It certainly is for me too. Just a very slow trickle after a very promising start to the month. I might manage to make target but can't do any car boots this weekend:( even though there are lots about. I'm helping at a big local 'event' on Sunday and Monday, selling stuff from an official charity stall which is definitely not car boot stuff:(


    I take it from your post that you don't have the Bank Holiday in Scotland, Lynne. Probably not much of a loss, it always seems to rain here on them anyway :(


    I hope the last of the summer sun shines on whatever you're all doing :beer:

    well done CBC. I sold one item and the money isn't mine lol. I bought DS some books, he is into beastquest and we got them for a song on ebay. So he already has the first series bought foolishly from waterstones with his Grandparent's gift money. We got about 3 series for the price of 1 book off ebay! Mind if you wanted the collectors cards, they were missing from every book off ebay!

    Anyhow sold one series from the ones we bought and made £3.88 after all the fees :) not bad considering we paid £4.20 +postage for 3 series.... So he is going to put this money towards series 4....

    and why dont you get a digital camera with the bonus money from ebay?

    nectar have something on their site about a surprise coming from ebay linked accounts on 2 September....

    worth a look if you have a nectar account.
