well done everyone.:A
im having a day of cleaning then listing whatever i can find on ebay. hoping to get up to 50 listings today, iv got 21 on already. iv decided to put 10% of each of my ebay accounts (I run another one for a friend and he gives me 10% of the profit, can be quite a nice earner for just listing and answering a couple of emails, he does the posting etc) into another virtual pot towards a summer camping holiday for me and my girls. i will aim to get @ 300 by June 1st in that virtual pot, but i will also top the holiday up from my emergency money at the time (although I might not need to if my third virtual pot goes well, fingers crossed), i do this every year then start again with my emergency fund when we get back. have a great weekend everybod, love from spam xxx:DProud to be dealing with my debts Nerd #992 LBM 30.06.08 Debt [strike]£3292[/strike] £1646 (50% paid, all interest free) Sealed pot member #434 £65.09 & Virtual sealed pot member #001 £82.07+£33.04+£112.83=£227.94 Gave up smoking 30.01.09 DfDay 01.12.09

Great idea spam.jam! Have you ever been to Switzerland? The girlfriend and I are booking a week there from the 1st of May (camping, they provide the tent with kitchen, electricity and three bedrooms!) and it's costing us a mere £350 all in... Not bad for a week in the alps
I've listed some unwanted vouchers on eBay, so hopefully have another ~£25 for my total in a week!0 -
