Hey guys, although not too new to MSE I have been pretty lucky to never be on the breadline. Having split from OH last year I have got myself in a bit of a pickle.

With almost 10K of debt I am now joining as many challenges as possible.

Id love to join you all on this, sounds great and I love a challenge. I bought BOGOF bag of crisp at weekend. Took into work for lunches, in our office we have an honesty box that a guy stocks every fortnight with goodies. A colleague offered me 25p instead of 30p he asks for to take a bag of my crisp (i had the flavour she wanted). Anyhow after taking payment I took a closer look at his stuff and realised its all multipack and he charges approx 10p less than supermarkets. Still a good profit involved me thinks having done some homework tonight.

Anyhow I have 25p and 5 bags crisp left. Then its another pack of multi pack crisp (BOGOF of course) and I will find an empty box and set up in competition (at a cut rate of course). This should net some free dosh and give me a bit of dosh to try and get doubled

Will keep you posted

Well I have just spent £13.00 of my "free" £13.89 on four seasons of SEX & the City on DVD (in immaculate condition) from my local charity shop. So they are going on Ebay...hopefully I will be able to at least double my money in the next ten days.Fingers crossed.

my work mate came up with a great idea for me to make crafty stuff like beaded jewellery with my money and sell my stuff. Love doing that kind of thing anyway so should be fab! I've got £5 in my paypal account thats come from slice the pie, selling free stuff, surveys etc so im gonna use that to buy some beads etc

Hi everyone

You are all doing well, coming up with lots of ideas .

I'm up to £12 as I got a £10 payment from Quidco through to my account yesterday that was made from using some credit on a couple of free sim cards.

I'm going to have a look on Ebay later to see if I can get a bargain that is local to me so I can save on the postage. Might look for a bundle of clothes or something.

well I am still looking for my first £1, but I am having an ebay day tomorrow if all works out as planned.

Well I have made my first purchase of 8 Avon items on Ebay for £5. They live locally so I will collect them which saves me paying their postage charge of £7 (which I think put other bidders off!!).

They are all brand new so even if I just get 99p for each item then I have made a small profit. Even 50p each and I will be nearly making my money back so fingers crossed.
