    Wow ! Some people are just sooooooooo kind !

    I under-estimated postage on one of my Ebay items and the buyer has just sent me a payment for the difference. I never expected it (my mistake) but what a lovely, kind thing to do - I'm humbled ! So, another £6 to add to my total.

    More ebay things being posted after school run so I'll have some more to add later on. Energy supplier change money has been rec'd by Quidco, payout on 31st Jan so won't hit my account until Feb. Oh well, it'll give me a good head start on the month !

    £33.16 from an ebay sale to add. Sold a random book on play last night that I forgot to take off as it was in a bag ready for the charity shop. Thankfully I found it so £5.49 also to add.

    On another note does anyone want to take over next months challenge? x
