    Finally! A NSD! (I posted an Ebay parcel, but since I have been paid for that, it's not really a spend. ;))

    Spent a fair bit the day before, though: I am desperate for some new jeans, cardis etc. and I nipped into Sainsbury's and found a pair and some bits I kind of needed in their half price sale. Cool! :D

    Went to ASDA this morning due to a tip off from the boards here, but found nothing I liked.

    Have quite a few people looking at some of my more exotic treasures on Ebay: if they sell I will be DELIGHTED! :j (More space + money = AMAZING!)

    Got my payslip for this month, and I'm not going to be as broke as I thought I would. Phew!

    Fairly quiet day today: had some work experience and spent some money on a takeaway lunch which has really annoyed me as it's money I could have done without spending and wouldn't have had to spend had I got out of bed earlier (Note to self: go to bed early to get up early!). Finished reading a books I've been agonising over for ages, though, and I'm delighted to be rid of it, and used up a shower gel meaning that's a bit more space in life. Goody! :)

    Have many other things to do, including tidying my room and taking a few Ebay photos. (Speaking of which, I've got quite a few watchers...PLEASE, PLEASE bid on the items, peeps as you will make my life/room so much richer/emptier as a result! :D

  • Sounds like a plan - Yeaaaaaaaaaaah! :j:j:j

    Good Luck with the e-bay sales pickle I have a few things listed on there at the mo. and am hopeful - though they are mostly re-lists from a couple of weeks ago.

    Mine are as well, but can't tell if it's people just watching or if they will really bid. If they do, I'll be just under £235 richer, so you can see why I'm so eager to sell! :D

    Gutted on 2 counts:
    1. Only sold one thing on Ebay, and ironically, it wasn't one of the ones that was being watched. OK, so it's £2.99 better off than I was this morning, but compared to £235...:(
    2. Just managed to knock my glass of red wine EVERYWHERE (and I do mean everywhere)! It looked like someone murdered the living room and most of the things in it. :(
    On this up side I won a £10 voucher at work for being the best at selling...something. :rotfl: Will save it until I can think of something to do with it. :)
    Spent £1.20 today. Bit naughty and not strictly necessary. *Blushes*
