The 'I want it NOW!!' debt/savings thread

I have just got up, i didn't go to bed until 1am though! So changed my tesco slot to 12 - 2

Postie woke me at 8.10 to deliver some shoes i ordered, they are a bit tight but next size up would be too big so just hoping to wear them in and stretch them out.

I sold those vouchers outside eBay for £250 including P&P, they paid me via paypal last night but i still got charged £8.70 in fees! I should have asked them to do a gift payment as no fees get taken then. Oh well still cheaper then selling them via eBay as it would have been those paypal fees plus the £16 eBay wanted to charge me.

I have converted the deals just hoping it all goes ok now, problem is i forget that i can only convert in portions of £2.50 so i could only change into £490 worth instead of £496 so i am thinking i will send them £6 back via paypal or not sure if i send £3 back as they have paid half really of what they would be getting....

Yay go you, must be nearly at 50k now then!

I have just found some more Tesco vouchers so could convert another £2.50 = £10 for the buyer to save me giving cash back.

jenjade

cool will the tesco vouchers come to your address then you have to send to the buyer? what you exchanging them too?

jenjade

how much in vouchers (the amount on the voucher) did you sell for £250? I have some i could use for meals out but i have nearly £100 in vouchers £400 deal and dunno if it would be worth selling?

I can't get my head around the whole tesco vouchers thing but I never shop there so not worried.

Way to go Jen on the crown, it's briliant when you get one isn;t it.

Have fun with the jewellery making Nikki, I wish I could spend a whole day making it but no chance with a toddler around lol.

I've been making a lasagne and trying to tidy the kitchen up. My new duvet and pillows I ordered on Sunday have arrived so need to change the bedding now too lol.

Have to go to shop to get essentials and then it's dd2's hospital appt this afternoon so will have to go out in the cold.

I sold £496 for £250 including P&P minus £5 postage and £8.70 in fees *grrr paypal* made £236.30 profit. I am going to round it up to £500 for them though as otherwise if i don't use my other voucher i have to give them £6 back. Wish i had found the other vouchers yesterday!

You normally get 2x the value so you should get £200ish.

My buyer wanted goldsmiths vouchers.

well done on your crown jen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I want one lol :-)

jenjade

i might look into it as we only use about £10 in vouchers on eating out as the are £40 in deal 4 meals for me and dd!

I might keep saving them and do it later in the year as the expire date is not till 2010!!

Well done mm you haev written another review i wasn;t expecting that!!
