hiya, i sold 32 items and banked £250 over the weekend, theres still @ £150 to come in, considering it was just some old records and some unwanted smellies not a bad turnaround. so im relisting the ones that didnt sell and iv got some more records to go on, will keep you updated. im saving 10% towards my holiday and the rest im using to decorate my very tired kitchen and bathroom :cool:
good luck with your ebay..xx i like the listing bit, and watching it all come in but cant stand the parcelling up and standing in the post office so not money for nothing really.x

Well this is my first post since joining! i am doing both this and the sealed pot challenge, as i constantly have a purse full of change, so throwing the 1p,2p,5p and 10p into that! Will open it and put it into the virtual pot as soon as its full *probably about 9-10 months the way its going!

Instead of using my spare current account, have opened one of A&L's esavers (issue2). Once the £20 cashback from Quidco comes through its going straight in there. Also the incentive to take money out is reduced due to me getting no interest the months that i withdraw from it!!

Can't remember which member suggested it (sorry!) but will set up a mobile alarm weekly to sweep the money across! Then i have no excuses!

Morning spam.jam - keep motivated with the house cleaning, you can always reward yourself with a posting session afterwards

More virtual clunks for me - now up to £92.51, within spitting distance of 33% of my target :money:

That's excellent!
