Aesop and CBC so sorry to hear that you are having a horrible time sending cyber hugs to you both x

Sorry I forgot to say I used a voucher for £6 off a £30 shop at waitrose today.

Can I join please?

Welcome to the 'Fred' Cat and good luck with the challenge. I have added you to this month's challengers but expect you will want to sign up for June once the thread is up - you'll have to let us know, and your target please

It's not all sunny in this house today, despite the lovely weather. OH had one of his unaccountable rages this morning (think a red-faced toddler having a temper tantrum and you'll get a fraction of what he's like :mad:) and deliberately smashed my nicest and favourite teapot..........

Gosh - it sounds like an awful day for the both of you :eek: Sending you some big squishy hugs, lots of empathy and some 'things will get better' vibes post haste

Still plodding along here. Did a pine tree peoples survey today and also have just over £10 to add from bank account interest :j

Hope you all have a super Tuesday

shelly. have a lovely holiday. relax and just enjoy it. we all need a break from time to time. we can't keep.going without refueling the engine.

your voucher, if it is the one I think it is, there have been problems with the codes showing as expired when inputted. I would contact snatch and check with them. then tell the buyer it's valid or give the new one from snatch.

mine hasn't replied yet but ebay have said I have until 4 June to sort it out. I have written to ebay explaining all that has happened and how I find it very suspicious that out of 3 items posted the same day, the one with fixed instructions has gone missing.....

I won £10 at old people's bingo with my mum. I didn't have to pay to play (and boy, did I earn it, two hours of pensioners farting and making smutty innuendos) so I'm going to count this.

Aesop

Lynne hope you feel better and well done on helping friend.

CBC my message was meant for you but looked like I was talking about mine.

hope he has been out and bought you a replacement teapot. xxx

lol. sorry that tickled me. pensioners making innuendos.... they can be quite bad!!!

what a shame about the handbag. I never know how to check for these kind of things. I don't buy designer handbags.

Just waiting for some ebay/Ziffit money to come in and I should hopefully reach my goal this month.

One thing I've seen suggested for physical eBay sales (won't work for codes unfortunately), is to set up an email address that's not connected to your eBay account, and then when you send off an item include a note in it that says "If this item hasn't reached you please email [spare account]" to let me know. It helps weed out some of the scammers because they then email that account, which isn't connected to ANYTHING else (eBay, Paypal, Amazon) claiming "My item has got lost", and you can then reply with "If the item got lost then how did you get this email address? I only ever put it inside eBay parcels".

The chap that told me about this runs a business on eBay and reckons that about 95% of chancers give up quite quickly. For those who sell a lot on eBay it might be worth a try, just to try and weed out the worst offenders.

I totally love this ingenuous idea. unfortunately with me the scammers raise a ticket directly with paypal or ebay. but I am going to try this. thankyou.
