    Hello I have more bad than good to report, but still made a little bit today!

    Mystery shopping

    The good - took my mum out for a lovely meal yesterday, she enjoyed it very much - all covered in reimbursement that I will get towards the end of this month.

    The bad - handed over my receipt for beauty treatment as requested in the venue. No receipt usually means no pay. Not the end of the world as it was a very cheap treatment and I have paid three times as much in a salon before.

    Also cancelled two mystery shops today, just reached saturation point I think! Got a few lined up for this week, still.

    eBay

    The bad

    Three items today not sold.

    One item sold but not paid for.

    Two unpaid cases open, need to find out what steps come next.

    Time consuming responding to low offers on a Buy it Now, declining offers.

    One buyer asking me questions. I answer, he ignores me!

    One item sold at £3.20, very disappointing amount - that's the way it goes though, could maybe have got more at car boot. Still more than Cash for clothes.

    So today's total is £5.60:

    £3.20 - eBay sale
    40p roadkill found by Co op cashpoint.
    £1 for Facebook sale (yes I do bother with that low amount xxx)
    £1 saved by eligible ticket being found in car park machine just as I was about to pay!

    Good today though - £415 in Facebook sales I did for my mother in law, very pleased to have helped, photographing and listing for her and arranging viewings of items, both of which were snapped up! She gave me £400 towards repair at home so I've got her that money back!

    contact the MS company. depending who they are, maybe amenable and find a way round it, don't write if off just yet.

    Also cancelled two mystery shops today, just reached saturation point I think!

    I get like this. I hate report writing, don't mind doing the role playing. I was aiming to do GFK's 50 jobs for that bonus this year, not had time with DS being off and also think I just am not up for it. Have other stuff going on that takes precedent unfortunately.


    One item sold but not paid for. not everyone pays straight away. could be waiting for payday, busy and not checked emails. don't panic, I am sure they will pay.

    Two unpaid cases open, need to find out what steps come next.

    Time consuming responding to low offers on a Buy it Now, declining offers.

    set your buy it now limit. so if they offer a best buy - set it at the limit you are prepared to accept. anything else will get rejected automatically. or put it in your listing, no offers accepted

    One buyer asking me questions. I answer, he ignores me!

    is he actually buying? if not, block him. if he asking tons of questions and taking an age to come back, block him. I had a time waster who did this, promises of buying it then got me into trouble with ebay. don't waste your time. no one is paying you to deal with him.

    do bins for clothes, everyone wants clothes at 99p.
