  • :hello: welcome back, Florence J, I was wondering where you'd got to.


    I sympathise with your lack of internet connection. Nightmare:eek:. I hope you'll be very happy with your new supplier and at least you made some nice cashback from switching:T. I've never looked back since finally ditching BT for PlusNet a few months ago:j.

    Yes good reminder, thankyou. Been spending some valuable family time today

    Family time is definitely more important than 1000 posts!

    CBC - Shame about the car boot sale, but as always at least £66 is more than you would have got staying at home!

    Evening lovelies and welcome back Florence :hello: Sorry to read about your tinternet, but pleased you're sorted now and made some money from the switch :T

    I can't think of anything at the mo Aesop. You already do such a fantastic job with all your ideas, information and inspiration for us as it is - you're an absolute :A
    Had a busy weekend having worked Saturday and today. Did manage to get to a small music festival yesterday which was very chilled and couldn't have had better weather.

    Will be pleased to get finished tomorrow as then have three days off. :j
    £16.50 tips to add though. :D
    Lovely to read you had a bit of 'me' time over the weekend and enjoyed the festival and the weather :D Brilliant making on the tips as well :j Hope you enjoy your days off.

    My car boot sale was OK but there were so many Bank Holiday events on today for people to visit and spend their money at and buyers were a bit thin on the ground. Oh well, I made £66.20 that I didn't have before so I should be thankful for that. Sold a lot of very small bits, nothing big and bulky, and seemed to bring home just as much as I took with me :rotfl: I'll never attain my minimalist dream at this rate will I? ........
    Sorry your car-boot was a bit quiet - but fantastic result :dance: :dance:

    Hope you all have a super Tuesday

    £7.02 today from matched betting today, that is all.

    Managed another PA study today, £2 I think it was. Back to work tomorrow and expecting to very busy over the next few weeks, so I may struggle throughout September. We shall see. I've smashed my £100 August target, so will leave it the same in September and hope I can still hit it.

    Keep going for the last 3 days everyone:beer:

    66 sounds very good!
    I have a downstairs full of clutter - I think one more car boot sale is needed.
    I tried WBB yesterday - am stuck at 2.20.
    I can't find an item I have sold on ebay, think I might have sold it at a car boot sale! whoops.
    have a great day all xx

    £4.60 from an eBay sale after postage - a used dog lead - better than nothing!

    Thanks Mrs Cautious never thought about listing dog lends, something to list in September I think.

    Big well done to everyone this month on any additional money made, each month I do this challenge and think how on earth am I going to make £10 a day but I keep plugging away at it and the little earners here and there soon add up.

    cc1 £1900/£3800 to pay by feb 25 Paid in full

    I sold my son's reins when he was 2,they didn't work as he was always pulling and running away. Sold them for £3 to a grandmother who came to collect them.

    Anyone else sell anything else they wouldn't consider unusual but sold?

    Dog bowls? Cat collars? Dog coats etc

    I'm trying to motivate myself to take my Ds swimming. I have work tomorrow and he is back to school next Week.
    But we are supposed to be away this weekend. I don't want to go as got to get Ds ready for school next week. I don't think it was very good timing and it's OK for the family involved. Everyone has to come down to them.

    We'll see. I am not going to really enjoy it as didn't last one. I didn't know anyone. And Ds is older now, and not into playing with girly girls. His best friend is a bit of a tomboy and they play similar games

    Hi everyone, sorry for not being around, our internet connection decided to give up and as a result we have been without the internet since early August. Needless to say have changed suppliers as we were with the 'chat chat' supplier and this was the last straw.

    A lot has happened.

    £3 Pinecone
    £16 Ebay
    £182.20 Tax rebate
    £3.27 Job Spotter

    How annoying. Good to have you back:j Well done on all the money made :T
