    My there's not much left for you is there, but if it was Miss Hoodie's stuff then it will be nice for her to use towards something else.

    My items have just finished - I made £3.71 for one item - the other 2 things didn't sell. :mad:
    Thrifty Gifty February make £20 challenge £21.05/£20.

    That's a shame Pammy and Janebo. I learnt the hard way never to list on free listing days - as someone pointed out, it is then a buyers market as there is so much choice.

    I hope everyone has had a good weekend. I finally made £20 on dooyoo. It was a struggle at times, but having done three reviews in the last 24 hours, it pushed me over my limit. I think I'll try and keep it a regular thing. £20 a month will make, what is it? £240. That's an amazing amount to put by for Christmas and that's without cashback sites and clicks. Woo Hoo.

    Well done everyone. five days to go!!! Whoever is struggling - give it that little extra push and you can make it! I know you can!

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    I had stopped with Ebay in the last week as I didnt have the motivation with work and other things going on in life.
    So OH is away to London today for a business training course till Tuesday and I have spent the last couple of hours relisting things that have not sold.

    So far I have 17 items on for 5 days so I should have £50 at a tight squeeze by next Monday.
  • I had planned on writing a few reviews for dooyoo this evening, but I have had the most awful migraine ever :( I used to get them a lot a few years ago but I haven't had one like this for years. I had to go to bed and just lie in the dark with a wet flannel on my head, Dh had to take the night off work to look after our son as there was no way I could even stand up. It got so bad I ended up throwing up 5 times.
    Thankfully it has now passed and I just have a bit of a fuzzy head. I've been on dooyoo for the last half hour returning the rates I've had so hopefully I'm up to date now.

    I'll just have to write double tomorrow :)

    Oh no nicky, they are the worst arent they. Hope you are ok tomorrow.
    I think I am going to try and have one night off a week from dooyoo as I seem to be getting addicted to it and its taking up a lot of time. I know its worth it but at what cost tho?
