    Actually, I should do more quidco. Thanks for the suggestion lovely! I'd been doing the 50p here and there but I suppose I should be more diligent!

    Well done everyone! Keep up the good work and remember what the money is actually for - paying off those debts and then saving for something special.

    I'm finally off the starting blocks properly. 3 ebay items sold yesterday, everyone's paid so going to post them at lunch time. Should make around £27 after postage and fees. Will update sig when no exact figures after posting.

    Listed 3 more things on ebay last night and some items on gumtree. My magp1e cd's are waiting to be sent as well, should do that tomorrow when I've found a suitable package for them. Sending 6 cd's, what't the best way, a package?
    DEBT FREE OCTOBER 2012!

    Whichever way you send them (I use 2nd class for most things nowadays or else parcel if it's heavier) make sure you complete the certificate of posting and get a post office receipt.

    They send you freepostage labels, just need to find something suitable to put them in so they'll get there in one piece and I'll get my money.
