Just a little update for today! Exam went really well last night, much better than I was anticipating so I'm quite pleased! One left on Monday then FREEDOM....well for a month or so anyway!!

I put my Tesco giftcard on ebay last night with a starting bid of 99p and its gone up to £47.01 already!! So thats a nice healthy start to my £500 target!....

Going to my parents house for the weekend with my daughter so that my OH can get on with some DIY jobs... hopefully the house will be finished by Christmas!! :rolleyes:

Whoop Whoop!! Exams are officially over - let the debt busting begin! :j

Yay, good luck with that.

I really need to get motivated now to do some ebaying etc!! I have boxes of stuff in my spare room to go through so tonight I will sit and list at LEAST one box. I seem to have sat on my behind and watched TV for the past two evenings because I have no studying to do, so need to get back into the debt busting now!

I did manage to list a £50 Tesco voucher on ebay that I got from taking on Sky TV, and its at £47.01 already so its a good start! Have loads of books and some baby bits and pieces to stick on too so that will be my target for tonight.

I'll pop back on and update my progress later... wish me luck!

yukkibear

Errr where was the progress report then? Hope you listed some

crapwithcash82

Lol... bad me!! I did list about 10 books, then thought I was getting tired so I would hav 40 winks.... didn't wake up until after ten so ended up going straight to bed!!

I will get more on tonight and hopefully make a bit more progress!

Well I have had quite a productive day, I have managed to clean my kitchen from top to bottom and mop the floor etc, and got my living room hoovered too!

On the debt busting front, have listed 23 items on ebay this afternoon in between playing with my daugther so thats a good start. We're going to tidy her room after tea time and maybe get rid of some baby toys, we've never actually done that since she was born and she is now 2 and a half!!

Hope you're all having a good day!

Morning All!

I have just been to the post office to post my first ebay sale this month! Made £51.51 so am really pleased with that! Also posted a mobile phone to envirophone which I did through quidco so that will be cashback plus I think around £4 for the phone. Not a huge amount but every little helps.

Today won't be a NSD unfortunately, I am taking my daughter to the singing Kettle and I need to get her a "school" bag for going to the childminders - I need to put her with a couple of changes of clothes because she is potty training, plus I need to put in wipes, suncream, raincoat - cover for all eventualities really!

I also need to get a battery for my watch, not sure if I am being ripped of with this or not, but I am normally £50 for a battery because the watch has to go back to Gucci to get the battery changed so that will hurt! Not very MSE I know, but I got it for my 21st birthday and don't like not wearing it....

We're planning on re-arranging our loft on Sunday so might get some ebay / car boot goodies out of that too.

Anyway, have a nice weekend, and I will hopefully have listed some more ebay items this evening.

Not much to report today. Have decided that I will go and list some more bits on ebay tonight, get the spare room cleared. Whatever doesn't sell, I'm going to car boot either this weekend or next. OH and I still need to have a look through our loft to see what else we can part with!

Have been reading through the matched betting guides again, so I think I'm going to give it a shot. I will read over it again tonight and play around with the spreadsheet first to see how I get on. I'm sure I'll have loads of questions so will probably be lurking on the matched betting board now too!
