Liddle Kiddles and eBay Sales

picklepal @picklepal (26) • United States 25 Feb 07

picklepal lol...I tend to use the ebay as a garage sale, old books and such. I have dreams of finding something inexpensive/fast/easy to make but will sell for lots and everyone will want through the eBay. I doubt that will ever happen!

picklepal I'm very new to MyLot also, and I'm still looking for friends. :) So far just my mom is my one and only on my list. I think the internet allows people to be more abrupt and rude because they don't see the reaction the person across from them has when the...

picklepal Although most banks and credit unions do have a Notary on staff, many no longer notarize any and all documents. Most of the larger banks will no longer notarize a hand written letter or even a Last Will and Testament. If you have a good relationship with...

picklepal I think you need to re-evaluate your position as this persons friend. A friend is someone that you share similar beliefs and values with. The two of you obviously do not. You might sit down with your friend and explain your views and offer to be supportive...

Has anyone gotten an offer from AC and decided to edit the article and resubmit it? What happens then? Are they likely to offer more or reject something after saying they'd accept it? What about the number of page views...

picklepal Hi, I write for AC also. I've had one article rejected that they requested I make a bit longer and resubmit. It's very easy to do. Just go in and edit the article and hit the submit button again. The only problem I had at the time was that they did not...

picklepal Great ideas on AC. I'm still somewhat new to AC, you can read my articles under Kris McLeod. (I'm hoping for page views!) I don't make a lot there, mostly because I don't invest a lot of time. I do enjoy it for venting. Think of it as blogging with...

picklepal How do you know it is coming from advertisers rather than just automated tags from something like Google Adsense? Can they really make that much to be able to pay everyone as well as pyramid payments from people you refer?
