Evening,

I ended up buying the foam pads off ebay as there only 99p and free postage! How do they make a profit on that?

Ive also listed 3 more items on Ebay:D

I really want to see Avatar at the cinema, i dont have a clue what its about i just want to watch it in 3D and havent been to the cinema for ages! Odeon is so expensive though, i would quite like to watch the new final destination 3D too. Thats out on DVD to buy now, and thinking about it i have a £10 Asda voucher to spend. I could buy that, some popcorn and stay in the comfort of my room to watch it!;)

The only problem when i sell things on ebay is i start buying things too!

Ive just bought OH a 'me to you' tatty bear valentines card. A seller sells them BIN for only 99p plus 65p postage! I know im making cards now....but thats cheap for a nice card! cheaper than what i could make one for.

Hi Maria,

I watched Avatar before Xmas in 3d. It was good but personally I think it wasn't as good as they advertised. Also I lost the 3d effect after about half an hour,my eyes just got used to it. I won 2 cinema tickets on a comp, so only had to pay £3 extra for the 3d, it was worth that amount;).

I'm still giggling that you bought a card for Valentine's day:). You should have made a really nice one:). We're not fans of V day, just can't be bothered, shops don't make money on us I guess. So when will you start making your cards? Will you sell them on Ebay?

Hi kavics

I will start making the cards this weekend probably, hopefully the foam pads will of come by then. No there not to sell, im making them for everyone i give cards to this for birthdays this year.

lol, i know a bit silly buying the valentines card when i want to start making them! But this kit i bought is just birthday designs so i would of had to buy a tone of different bits for one valentines card so choose just to spend a huge £1.64 instead

I forgot to mention yesterday i put another £10 in my £365 in 365 days pot and crossed the ten days off the calender. But then i was thinking maybe i should put this money into my spare account as what if there was a fire in the house or we were burgled???!! Next door were before christmas! so you never know!

The weather here today is awful, horrible wet and cold sleet most of the day so far.

Just withdrew £10 from scratchie and added to sig

£4 paypal added to sig from doing a PC survey:D

Im deffo going to put my 365 money into an account plus i will earn a little bit of interest too. I have a A&L E-saver that i set up once for quidco money its only got £1 in it so i think i will transfer the £25 from my account then pay in the cash in my pot tomorrow. Then i dont have to get any cash out either i can just transfer online every week.

Hi Maria,

The valentines card sounds like a bargain, Clintons most cards are like £3.50+, rip off with a capital R. When you get more experience making cards you can make your OH a lovely birthday card.

That's a good idea re the 365 money, i have mine in an old jewelry box, currently have £26 and once it gets past £100 i was concerned about just leaving it round the house. But then i have my sealed pot which i probably have £50 in already as i have been going a bit mad putting all my £1 and £2's in this past week. What if that got robbed? hmm.

Well done on the scratchie wins, all i ever get is 10p, booo!!!

I normally only get 10p's too, i had a lucky week last week with the £5's.

Yeah its a bit dodgy saving money at home just incase of fire/burgled. At least with an account interest can be made.
