Morning!

I've listed a few things on eBay and gumtree so excited to see how they go. I've joined up to some of the apps mentioned too.

I have loads of dvds and cds I need to go thro. Has anyone any advice on best place to make some money from these? I know most places give you very little for them but I'd like to make space!

Thanks!

I wish I could say this. I gave loads to the charity shop last year, and my friend sold some books for me. and I still have loads, although am trying to work my way through it all this month. its got to go.

I know lynnejk is in the same situation as you, oh to have a clean and tidy home

:rotfl: The only reason I got it all sorted was that I was moving house to less than 5 mins drive away and as it was so close I refused to pay out for lots of removal people and moved most of it myself. However, I hate the packing, moving, unpacking process so I was highly incentivised to get rid of as much as I possibly could so I didn't have to move it!

So yes.. now not much to get rid of (just the odd thing here and there), but clean and tidy? Hmm... not really with a little one!

Small start to the month with £3.48 bank interest.

Cant believe we are only on day 2 and page 4 already!! :j

Great to see so many people get on board and all the new posters.

Once you make this thread a regular thing, it just becomes a habit and way of life. I always feel guilty if I dont do something that I can post on here at least once a week.:rotfl:

Hell........I sound a bit obsessive.

Anyway ......my first addition for the month is my tips for yesterday of £6.30 .

Yes there are a few sites. Musicmagpie is on topcashback so you get a few pence back eventually.

Webuybooks, if you look online there are usually voucher codes to bump up your amount. I think Florencev J told us about the refer a friend get £5 each offer


I would normally say check referral board.



Zapper is another site

Ziffit too.


I would use their sites and work out who pays most or if you have enough minimum, split your sales

Evening / morning all. Re-visiting MSE after a long period away (just noticed my signature - seems I was last here 5 yrs ago!). After being pretty good with my money for a long time, I took up an M&S credit card to receive FREE points. Despite paying it off in full initially, bigger purchases ended up going on it, and month by month the debt started stacking up. Fortunately it is still interest free currently, but I'm determined to get the balanced (just over £1,300) paid off ASAP.

This topic is exactly the kind of motivation I need to do so. I'm on holiday at the moment, so will take a few days to get into the swing of things.

Lets go for £100 for the month to begin with. Fingers crossed! Good luck to all involved this month!

I know what you mean KM - it does tend to make you keep on your toes eh :rotfl:
Good for a lazy person like me though as provides the proverbial kick up the derriere

Ooh - gently dropped in there Aesop - what's with the moving ??

- another bad trait is wanting to know what's happening
