Lunars Ebay challenge

I think I have been making pretty good progerss paying off my debts over the last year. Im just not committed enough to do those extra things that will make a big differnce. For example i have 4 boxes of things that i could sell on ebay and im just to lazy to list them.:mad:
So here is my challenge to myself inspired by the pay a debt every day thread. im going to list one item every day on ebay untill i have no clutter left in my house. this will prob mean that i will be doing this challenge until im 90!
Feel free to join me if you struggle to be motivated to list things. Please give me a good telling off if i start to let this slip. I need to make some space in my overly cluttered house.:rotfl:

Good idea this! I don't really have enough to sell to join you but thought I'd wish you luck and bump this thread up
Good luck!LBM February 2008. DFD March 2013 19 August 2011Debt at LBM £14,395.48. Debt Now £00 -
Good luck! I am trying to lighten my load by selling on eBay as well! I have sooo many things, it will take me forever to just list them all, so I am doing eBay alongside car boot sales too....
One thing I'm doing that makes it a bit more manageable for me is to list only clothes one week, makeup/jewellery the next, books the week after etc...We got rid of the kids. The cat was allergic.
Debt at LBM (Sep 07): £13,500. Current debt: [STRIKE]£680[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]£480[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]£560[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]£13[/STRIKE] £0 overdraft
Current aims - to start building up savings
1st £1000 in 100 days - £1178.03
2nd £1053.38/£1000
3rd £863.59/£1000

Lunar I am right here with you!
I took photos, I weighed things, then I got bored.
I have a conservatory full of COMPLETE junk that I should e bay. You'd think the fact that I have 21.35 sitting in my account - just from E bay that that would be motivtion in itself. but no apparently not.
I will check back in tomorrow Lunar!!

Good luck with this and I would love to join you, but after spending the last 7 months or so with at least a couple of bit on ebay all the time, I'm slowly depleting my ebay items I can sell. I'll be watching this thread though to hopefully inspire me to have a huge clearout again as I have so much extra money I want to make (don't we all)0

I have listed my second item just now, no bids on the first one yet but a few watchers! really hope i can stick with this and keep on listing things every day.
Thanks everyone for the support, remember to give me a kick if i start neglecting things!DFW NERD NO.656 DEBT FREE 24TH NOVEMBER 2010 TOTAL DEBT AUGUST 2007 £39000MFiT T2 NO.56 WE OWN [STRIKE]25%[/STRIKE] 31.5% OF OUR HOUSE SO FAR!0 -
Ok im not going to be able to get online this weekend as we are going away for 2 nights so i have listed 3 items today. I have 2 bids on the first thing i listed and 3 watchres on the second. It will be nice to get rid of some of the boxes ive had piling up and actually get some money back for it.
I cant believe how good everyone seems to be with getting things onto ebay, it must just be me that is so lazy.DFW NERD NO.656 DEBT FREE 24TH NOVEMBER 2010 TOTAL DEBT AUGUST 2007 £39000MFiT T2 NO.56 WE OWN [STRIKE]25%[/STRIKE] 31.5% OF OUR HOUSE SO FAR!0
