    Just thought a link to this post will be helpful for anyone trying to make extra cash on eBay especially on smaller items.

    Prob worth car booting it all after 24th September looking at the new charges!

    i have used the saving caculator and i have £1,200
    To have £3600 in savings after 6 months,
    you should save £387.07 a month.
    £97 a week!!!!!!!!! ouch

    well worth a go i am not expecting to have it by april 09 but i am going to try and raise as much as posible and it will make it so much easier to save for the next year as i will have 24 months (£150 a month)

    Morning guys. Hope everyone is bright and cheery this morning. I'm not lol

    Said tired dd yesterday afternoon decided to wake up screaming at half one this morning, and nothing would settle her. She didn't want me, or her dad, in the end calpol won.

    I'm glad I don;t have too much left to ebay too as those fees are really high. They've not long put them up too.

    MM I use roulette, one colour till it won then the opposite colour etc. Hope they let me cash it out lol

    I did it 50p to start with at a time, but you can do what you feel comfortable with.

    If my pc would work on any other site apart from here I'm going to try and withdraw it this morning before I play through the last £15.

    Well done on that debt reduction
