Got rained off today and made £25 profit, but I'm not complaining, we did get rid of some bulky items so that was good and it was cold today and windy. It rained heavily so we packed up and came home...The skies are now blue and no rain at all-I told OH we should have just sat in the car and waited for a while...Never mind.
I've updated my sig-only need another £75 ish in the next week to have made the £10 a day in July...Let's hope I do some good sales on ebay!!!

jenjade

oh thats a shame cath at least you made something. always the way isn't it. i lovve the £10 a day challange has really motervated me to stop putting things off

OberonSH

Yay! That's still £25 you didn;t have. Not bad esp as you're back home by 11am!

tattycath

Yes the £10 a day challenge has really motivated me too. July is my first one. The first time I saw it I thought it was impossible and definitely not something I would be able to achieve, but when I started to add things up and saw how much I can save/make a month I thought maybe it was the push I needed to get rid of some stuff and get some money in!!!

jenjade

i am wondering if i will be able to do it next month as i have nothing big to sell really. it will be very hard. i did it last month too and beat my target no idea how!!

jenjade

i haven;t been counting things i save like money off coupons etc that other people have so i might have to do that on next months

jenjade

yeah listed another item on fee bay

tattycath

I have only counted savings a couple of times-max. If I counted all my savings from grocery shoppping I would have probably beat my target-I'm brill at finding bargains and my youngest DD takes after me for that too-Not like my oldest DD who looks longingly at £100 tracksuits, and I bought her some trainers about 6 weeks or so ago (cost £59 - less 20% from littlewoods), she took them camping and when she got home announced she needed a new pair... That is so not going to happen. So she said she'd get daddy to buy her a pair-so i rang him and thwarted her-she is not going to play us off one against the other-she used to do that when she was younger til we got wise to it. Anyway. I told her on friday if she wants £150 worth of clobber she could get off her lazy backside and earn the money to pay for it...I haven't heard any mention of it since...
