    Morning, I've got a second 99p bid this morning and I got 2 x 20p on the scratchcards, all helps! :beer:
    Today we're going to clean the car inside and out as its filthy, maybe a couple of trips to the tip, possibly a trip to the beach and I promised ds we'd make some fairy cakes. We saw dad yesterday as he's going out today with my brother so have done the fathers day bit already ;)

    Nipped to a car boot and got a beautiful Monsoon angora wraparound cardigan for £1 and a pretty pink Hobbs cardigan for 50p, not sure whether to keep or ebay, but three of the pink ones have sold recently on there for £13, £18 and £25 :beer:

    I reckon I should ebay them both, as much as I like them I did not set out to buy stuff for me, and if I keep going to car boots and coming back with stuff for me I'm never going to clear the clutter or make money ;) and there will always be another car boot and more bargains to be had :D
    Off for a quick bath now and then housework and ebay :D
