We've had a lovely day at the beach, only spent £3.20 for 2 ice-creams, so a good mse day out

Now we're home I need to get the tea then tonight I plan to thoroughly clean the bathroom, finish the matched bet, do the ironing and possibly do some more houseworky bits but I'm not sure what yet. We walked to and from the beach, a bit of exercise each and saved the car park fees too

Kittikins I've sold M&S and John Lewis vouchers on ebay and got almost face value - they seem very popular!Mortgage OP 2026 £640/2000Mortgage balance: £32,222

How about changing them to £38 or best offer? That way you could accept £30 if necessary but you should get higher

Darn it, the theme of ironing is following me from thread to thread!! I took my iron out of the cupboard and am wondering how long it'll sit on the work surface attempting (and failing) to make me feel guilty.....
Do you really think I could up my price on the vouchers? They're a bit tatty paper ones, you couldn't give them to anyone as a present...0 -
I don't know Kittikins may be worth a try

I'm not sure why mine went for so much but maybe if you are buying something big it's worthwhile to gather up lots off ebay

Well, here's hoping...it's for Ann H*rvey (larger size clothes), I've upped the price anyway. If they don't sell, I'm bound to see something I'll like eventually, just that with dieting, I'm now at the lowest end of their range and will soon drop off their radar (yippee!!)0
