    M&S messed up yet another of my orders, so yesterday when I went in they gave me £15 vouchers. I'm off the mark!

    Hi Everyone - Snow means I have had to change alot of my shifts to when I can actually get to work. Good News is that I've sold a book (£4) and also got a mystery shop lined up that I can still walk to in this snowy weather. I've sorted out a bagful of things for e-bay - I can see this shaping up to be a busy weekend. ;)

    Hello! Just stopping in.

    Anyone got any particular reasons for doing the challenge?

    I need rid of my scary high interest cc asap (and my overdraft too) so doing this is to give me a kick up the derriere :o

    I'm going to be a while before I'm off the starting blocks as I'm only going to count the extra earnt when I physically pay it off my debts or it'll manage to get spent on everyday stuff if I don't.

    Have photographed a massive amount of stuff to ebay, all small value things as that's all I've got left :rolleyes: but it should all add up in the end :cool2: did a few write-ups tonight so they're ready to go at a reasonable time and not twenty to one in the morning :rotfl:

    I'd completely forgotten about the tiki jesa, need to remember to do it every day :o:o
