Massive debts

Odd thing really, I'm really really in the mood to list a whole load of ebay. Oh that's right they bloody banned me:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:. I have a housefull of stuff burning a hole in my pocket.

I am going to re-register once my new bank account details are ready. I'm not sure this is entirely moral, but as they haven't banned me for any good reason I'm going to do it. Different if I was a scoundrel (good word) who was taking people's money and selling tatt, or not sending the goods at all. I'm just a poor person with a houseful of stuff to sell - loads of stuff. I know you are all surprised I have anything left to sell, but there are no ends to the depth of my cupboards;).

Definately doing a car boot sale next weekend, and using Monday to get together all the goodies for the cash for clothes shop. Not expecting to raise more than £25 with the cash for clothes thingey. Looking forward to the car boot sale because I will actually have all week to prepare, and I should be semi organised. Hoping to get £150 from the booty:D.

Bargain dress from Dorothy Perkins £15 in the sale, but I managed to get a 20% off code to work, therefore my £12 dress will be getting an outing for the Communion tomorrow. Already have a bag and shoes, so I'm good to go. Just need to breathe in for large portions of the day - or break out the magic knickers.:)

Have been cooking up a culinary storm this week, don't have to spend a penny to magic up yet another dinner. Defrosting some chicken fillets (reduced of course), doing carrots, a white wine sauce and baked potatoes tonight. There might even be enough baking stuff to do some butterfly cakes:A.

And now I am re-registered on eBay:j:j:j:j.

New bank account all ready to receive all my fleabay cash:money:.

And what's worse is I have ALL of next week to get listing. Going to choose 10 fantastic items to start with .

Well my boy had his Communion yesterday and received £150 as gifts. Now the money saver in me has tried to convince him to save it, but its burning a hole in the proverbial pocket! Off to buy new football boots this afternoon!:)

On the plus side we managed to throw a lovely little party on a lemonade budget:j.

Spending some cash this afternoon - getting a little takeaway from McDonalds and watching an afternoon of football on the TV with my boys:p.

Then will spend the remainder of the day listing some ebay for sale, doing hubby's CV to send to Australia and planning my next money saving miracle. For dinner later on its Pork chops with a sauce made with philly light and mustard, using up the leftover potatoes to do roasties and some green veg to steam from the freezer:D.

Planning on dropping by Tesco later on to see if I can get some reduced mince to do a cottage pie tomorrow with the last of the potatoes and veg.

I'm thinking of the following as my debut 10 items for fleabay:j.

Boys Adidas High Tops
Ralph Lauren beach bag
Dell netbook
Nintendo DSi and games
Mens G-Star jeans
Mens Navy Lacoste lightweight jacket
Philips Surround Sound System (I've been threatening to list this for ages!)
Boys almost new Adidas Tracksuit
Armani bag
Fenn Wright Mason cardigan

I'm aiming to net between £150-200 out of this - anyone think that's unreasonable?

As a new ebay customer, it tells me I am limited to listing ten items a month - does anyone know if thats a calendar month or 28 days?:(

Hoping to reach the target with the ebay - just finishing hubby's CV then I'm on it:D.

Also going to get the bags for the cash for clothes shop together. I'm on a money making roll! Which is just as well, given that hubby remains unemployed. Which I suppose is better than unemployable;).

Thanks re: the house, yes it was tidy for a whole 2 days:D. Hoping hubby can keep it like that for viewings when I'm not here:mad:.

Shame they photographed the back garden which is in dire need of some TLC, and the current graveyard for footballs!:eek:

Just to add to my to do list (all manageable from the armchair ), planning on selling some DVDs to Music Magpie too!
