    Hello everyone hope you're all having a nice weekend. I have tomorrow off work so i've decided today that i'm going to sort out all my unwanted items to list onto ebay. A coat which was quite expensive from last year and only worn once, lots of books and a few tops/dresses, fingers crossed they manage to sell, i love being decluttered and of course any extra money will be nice.

    I managed to list four items on ebay last night, i have watchers and have already had two bids, result :T. I have today off work so the plan for today is to list some of my read books, they're mostly chick lit which i find sell quite well, if anything it's to free up some space. I only tend to read the books once anyway. Then go through my wardrobe to see if there's anything else which i haven't worn for a while and almost new to list.

    I've looked around the boards/net for ideas in how to up my income but to be honest it doesn't seem that there's much in which i can do from home without some sort of sales involved which to be honest isn't for me and i wouldn't be comfortable doing. Does anyone have any ideas?

    I've also got £100 in my ISA account which i started when i created this diary, plus £55.15 in coin savings, not too bad.

    Hello everyone, some of my items ended on ebay today and i made just over £50 on four items, not bad. Some are ending in a few days and a few have bids, happy as they would've just been left unused clutterring up my room.

    I've been out both nights this weekend, but all in all i didn't spend too much and had a fab weekend!! As from tomorrow i'm going to take £40 out of the cashpoint each week for travel, lunches etc and hopefully that will last me throughout the week.

    I've been paying a small amount off my debts each day, even if it's just a couple of pounds or so a day, afterall every little helps doesn't it and it deducts the balance of the debt :T. Shall update my debt balance at the end of the month.

    Oh well i have work in the morning so really should be getting off to bed, my mind seems to work overtime during the evenings and i can never seem to get to sleep early ever :rolleyes:.

    Hope you've all had a nice weekend.
