    I am in! I can't decide what my goal should be. At the moment I am relisting over 200 items in my shop because of the new free P&P rule for media items coming into effect next Monday (26th).

    So my first aim is to get over 200 items listed in my shop again. So far 85/200.

    Once they are all up I will revamp my goals :D
    I like to make money
    Best wins: £3,000 luxury holiday, holiday in Cornwall, £250 Murad Skincare hamper, angle grinder


    :j Make £10 a day challenger - it pays for trips to Florida! :j
  • 10 items listed today...still a scarymountain of clothes books and shoes to go on though!!

    Not at all! Loving the updates. :)
    I just sat here watching 2 of my items that are ending in the next 20 minutes and got an offer on some things I had on a BIN that ended in 10 days! Only a couple of £s but they will be collecting them so save me going to the post office.
    (also doing daily clicks to try and make the ebay fees!)

    Just sold another BIN which covered all my fees so far so anything now will be profit for me. Must get going and find some more things.

    Dh is a great hoarder, but has now got the bug:eek: He's spent the last hour in the loft and has found lots of lovely stuff for me for me to Ebay! There is still more though so I shall have to keep him motivated. This weekend will be spent photographing and posting on Ebay (oh well at least it will keep me away from the shops and spending).:j
