    Omg, my big item that I'm selling is now up to £41 :eek: It originally sells for £49.99 and its now up to £41 with £10 postage, but its not brand new, its not been used but all the bits inside the box are out of their original plastic bags etc, can't believe someone would pay that much when they could buy a brand new one for less?? Really hope they don't decide there's a problem once they recieve it, I've gone craqy over the description and have tried to be honest about the condition of it :o

  • Brilliant going there then - and it's highly unlikely that the person who bought it will decide they want to return it so don't worry about that. I managed to get five CD's listed today too and am just considering sticking the Take That live one up too. A bit of me wants to keep it, but I really shouldn't....! My spare Harry Potter DVD has been dispatched now too so I may as well list that I guess.

    Evening all :D A standard day today, 10p on the scratches, nothing new in the banking, no sign of any maintenance yet this month from the ex :rolleyes:, same old same old really :D After school we went and posted the ebay bits, Ladypink your cd is on its way!

    Anyway, yesterday I ventured on the scales in the bathroom, something I've been avoinding for a few weeks and found I have put on another half a stone, practically in the last 6 weeks :eek: So, after lots of thinking i have:eek: come up with (yet another!) plan. This time instead of embarking on a strict diet I am going to make it one of my goals for 2010 to get my weight under control and get fit. Yes I know its me and a few million others, but I reckon if I aim to achieve it by the end of the year then thats more realistic than going on a diet and getting depressed every time I cheat :o So, it will be broken down into steps, the first of which is to try and get back down to 11.5 stones by the end of the year. I am hoping that this half a stone will be relatively easy as its gone on so quickly and recently it needn't think its staying ;):D I do have several events planned over the next few weeks though but I don't drink much at all so if I try and be good generally and then can have a few treats on my nights out. Then I plan to take it half a stone at a time then once I get to each half a stone I will have a break for a month or so and stabilise it before cracking on again with the next half stone.
