It was a camera bag - picked it up to use as a handbag. Started it off at £2.99, end price £25 plus p&p means nearly £30. Roaring ahead of challenge this month, but then again, we're counting cash we already in the saving accounts (as it'll be put towards the debt anyway)

I have an old photo bag in the loft... ok it has a camera in it too - my OLD SLR (non digital type)... maybe I should list both... hmmmm

After all it was a present from the evil scum of the earth ex...

Do you? Is that why it's in the loft?

MrsTinks

LOL I get all nostalgic when I take it out of the loft though If I got round to buying some film I might actually use it but you're all right *sigh* I really should list it... they don't fetch much however... had a nose on fleabay - but it IS half day listing day on thursday so might whack it on then

I know what you mean about the camera MrsTine - I have my old pentax in the attic but it goes for between £10 ans £60 and I don't know if I could cope with only getting £10 for it...decisions decisions.

Oberon - followed your tip today and lots of people asked me if I was going out. Maybe I should make the effort more often!!!

Loved your tip too Obe.
But they'd think I'd either got a job interview or a secret boyfriend. :rotfl:

If it's an ornament, then display it. Otherwise flog it before it gets even cheaper. Unless it's mint and rare, they don't appreciate in price.

What an inspiration you are Obi!!!! As got no internet at home at the min it has taken me nearly four weeks to read this thread (lunch times and other times when I shouldn't really) and has had me in stitches sometimes and feeling for you others.

I too am having problems with Tax Credits and really need to post my SOA on here for some advice. Having just become recently single with DD, I really need to get off my a!! and do something now. Hope you have sorted your Tax Credit problems out.

By the way, Obi, Mrs T and ToTo, the wedding photos are fab. Mine didn't even make it into an album and are stuffed somewhere in my mums attic.

So, where ever you are at the min, send a post and let us all know you are ok.

Looking forward to either the book or the website.

PS - If possible would you please be able to send me a copy of your spreadsheet. It sounds fab and as I get paid weekly would be a really big help. Cheers. xx

Thanks - there's a few I'm quite chuffed with my self

Obi is ok - she says she'll try to post on here later but she's busy busy busy working away like the little busy bee she is

And Friday is her work day anyway so hopefully she'll come on here when she's taking her "lunch break"
