Just a post about leafletting.

Leafleting :)

I have had a few peeps pm me about this (not that I mind people pm-ing me so don't think I do- just people do seem interested) ....so below is my answer :) I have no idea how many jobs are going etc....

Hiya :) no worries, you're actually the second person to ask me this, so I think I'll stick a thread up in the up your income, or search to see if there is one....

I just saw a notice up in the local news agents and responded to it. I haven't actually done any rounds yet so can't tell you how productive it is (3p a leaflett-so not the highest pay in the world, but for a bit of extra income, I mean mine would work out about £55 a job I think..) it is with TNT http://www.tntpost.co.uk/Jobs/Delivery_Jobs.html

Hope this helps :)

    i wouldnt leaflet bet you will have to walk loads and carry heavy loads in all weathers. My son tried a paper round once the free one didnt last long at it. You had to carry so much or keep returning home to new load.

    just curious do you get taxed on this?
    :footie:
  • Yeah I wondered that, I would presume so....

    Re: the heavy load thing, I was thinking of maybe quiting the gym and doing this instead..!!!

    Think I'll ring him tonight and ask a) where the hell my first job is, and b) about the tax, although to be honest I didn't sound all that enthused by the idea when I spoke to him on the phone and he told me the wage....I was making him work out how much it would be per hour etc, I'd not be suprised if some 16year old scrote hasn't taken my place, someone less quizative about the whole money thing....somone seemingly more reliable, as my answer to his, 'So you want to do it then?' was ' Errr yeah ok I'll give it a go' :rotfl:plus the ad is still in the window.

    I shall give him a ring. :)

    yes it would be taxed as income - either through PAYE or self assessment.

  • Thanks for this I have just sent my details for the directory delivery as I think the leaflet dropping would be too much for me to carry around!

    See what they come back with!

    Do you know how much you get for directory deliveries? Thinking about it myself.
