  • another book on amazon. had a wee look at my money account and looks like there is about £44 coming. Their fees are absolutely shocking. More than £20 at the moment. Basically a third of what you earn goes on fees. When you are only selling a book for £1.....its not really that worth it. Am doing well though. 12 books so far in past few days. Still got another 40 or so listed.

    need a kick up a**e to get some stuff on ebay!! The month is moving on quickly

    GILL635 Its never too late to join, so start making money :D

    Broken hearted I've been really surprised how slow things have gone this month too. We have 88 members now and only about 10 people posting if that !!! I think maybe everyone felt really motivated being the start of a new year and then the January blues kicked in? :o

    Got a new purse in the sales a few weeks ago and found an old debenhams voucher card thing, put it in the rubbish pile but then decided I would check the balance just in case. Checked it today and there was £8 on it, I was so shocked as its not like me to not know where money it :D, so was very pleased.

    Well done everyone, a lot of people seem to be doing really well!

    I've joined sooooooooo many survey sites in the last week, I lost track of my logins for them all so had to put them into a spreadsheet lol

    Not managed to do much today as work's been mad but I'll get cracking again tonight and give some tips on some sites I've used that are good :)
  • just a reminder, its free bingo on gala today too so get yourself over there for a chance to make some extra money today :)

    Another £11.17 to add to the total - will go and update signature in a minute, various clicks and surveys, and got £3 for joining something called cashbin, though am not sure what it is so if anyone could shed any light that would be great.
    I'm not a failure if I don't make it, I'm a success because I :tried!
