    You are doing really well. Do you have any tips? 
    I've just joined the forums and am trying to get out of debt by the end of this year 🤞
    I do matched betting so that's where all of the money comes from, I do other things like Quidco etc but always forget to report them.

    Welcome to the challenge purple.sarah. Gosh, you're off to a flying start. I have sold to CEX in the past, nothing like that amount, just the occasional DVD or game. I like it because I can check the price on the website that they buy the DVD/game for, and then take the item to the shop and get the cash. It's all very easy to do.
    Hi Eleanor, welcome to the forums and to the challenge. Well done on your first £5 and good luck with your debt busting.

    Made £23.12 on ebay tonight (after fees and postage). 
    Yesterday I went to Lidl for the first time, as a voucher came in the post for £5 off a £25 shop. I needed shopping in and thought I would give it a try. Put the £5 I saved using the voucher into my savings.
