£20.00 Argos Vouchers - special offer this weekend if you spent £100 - so I bought some Xmas presents.
Had an Ebay disaster - had to refund an item I was selling for my cousin because there was some bits missing - my cousin had no idea and I didn't realise either (it was a tent and I don't do camping). Apart from the trauma of having to reduce last months total (still just managed to hit my target though) - I feel really bad for the buyer - he was a really nice guy and came a long way to collect it - think I'll send him a little something by way of apology:o:o - I really feel terrible about it.
Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful.
