This former Aldi worker has earned over £100,000 selling her toenail clippings and used pants but draws the line at customers requesting vomit and faeces.

Online Content Creator Dolly Simpson, 26, from Stockton, UK has earned over £100,000 selling items online to customers willing to pay £1,000 per custom item.

Dolly has sold knickers, socks, dirty shoes, worn lingerie, toenail and nail clippings and hair clippings to customers online.

Customers usually get in contact with Dolly through her social media pages such as Instagram, where she posts regular content.

Dolly began her new business venture when the COVID-19 pandemic hit and left her unable to continue her job as an exotic dancer.

Now Dolly can earn up to £10,000 per month and has earned £100,000 over three years from selling items online.

Before this, Dolly had also worked as an Aldi warehouse worker for minimum wage and even when juggling two jobs she didn't make nearly as much as she does now.

Although Dolly loves selling items online, she has had to turn down offers before, including customers asking her to send vomit, urine and faeces.

Another request Dolly had to reject was from a customer wanting her to cut off her 30-inch hair extensions worth thousands of pounds, which she denied as the customer wasn’t willing to pay enough for it to be worth the trouble and cost.

“I was an exotic dancer before then but because I couldn’t work in the real world I decided to create an online income stream," she said.

“I’ve worked loads of jobs. I worked in an Aldi warehouse as a picker, I’ve worked as a retail assistant, bartender etc.”

Once Dolly started making content online, customers came with the odd requests such as selling them her old toenail clippings.

“The weird things I’ve sold on the internet are knickers, socks, dirty shoes, toenail and nail clippings, hair clippings," she said.

“I normally just receive messages online of people wanting to buy items because I put myself out there as a sex worker anyway.

“So mainly via Instagram. But I’ve even had customers from TikTok or Facebook.

“I normally just sell what people ask for, I don’t advertise myself for selling anything really. I think people just want to purchase things from me.”

The most money Dolly has made from one item is £1K from a full lingerie set that she had to film a video and show herself wearing before sending it to the customer.

“Different items have different prices depending on how much I have to go through to acquire these items or how much of a loss they are when I give them away,” she said.

“Also a lot of people will not only buy items but they may want content to go with these items for example a video of me using these items.

“The most I’ve made from one item is probably £1K but they wanted a full lingerie set with a video of me in it.”

Although Dolly earns well from selling items online, she has had to reject some putrid requests, such as selling her vomit and faeces.

“I’ve had people want me to cut my entire hair,” she said.

“I have 30-inch hair extensions that cost thousands and someone asked me to cut my hair but I felt like he wasn’t willing to pay enough.

“I’ve also denied requests to send my poo and wee and vomit.

“Just because it’s illegal to send that and I draw a line at some things.”

Dolly loves selling items online and creating content as she is able to earn much more with the freedom to create what she wants and reject who she wants, rather than working minimum wage jobs as she did before.

“I’ve made over the past three years from selling things online, probably £100K,” she said.

“I used to make minimum wage working at Aldi warehouse. And there would be a time when I would have two jobs one day time, one at night and still not make as much money as I make now.

“I really love my job and I enjoy selling things on the internet.

“I understand I am very privileged to have this job.”
