    Just done a couple more, haven't gone too mad today as was up most of the night with DD3 as she was crying and couldn't sleep as her nose was all snotty, so she didn't fall asleep until about 3am, then DD2 started coughing, she went back to sleep and DD1 started coughing and was sick, so am very tired today.

    Kids are not going to school tomorrow as they both have colds and a cough that makes them sound like Seals, even the baby sounds like that too, so will keep them in the warm.

    Dog has gone home now too, DD1 cried for a while after he left as she loves him so much and misses him.

    Yep I'm still sat here with poorly baby full of cold and coughing everything up. I'm just waiting for DS2 to get up. We're lucky if we get 2 hours uninterrupted sleep; I dream of the day that we have a good night's sleep.

    Well done to everyone who got listings on. I couldn't even get on eBay earlier to see how my current listings were doing; I had to wait until I got the ending emails sent through :rolleyes:

    This week will be the week to organise myself although I will also have DS3 at home tomorrow as he is not even keeping medicine down.

    Turbolister does work, i used turbolister all day today to list a lot of items.
    I think it tells you how much it costs, but when its finished uploading it says fee £0.00 saving £0.15 etc
    I did a test listing first to make sure.

    Did most with turbolister and reslisted some ones which didnt sell last time!

    Nobody else has managed to use turbolister free of charge, there are posts all over the community boards and the ebay forum with people reporting fees. The only person on the community boards who claimed they had not been charged turned out to have been listing DVDs at £3.99 which are free anyway.

    Are you sure your items weren't in free categories like media anyway, and have you checked your actual selling account on ebay to see if they definitely show as free. Using Turbolister was specifically excluded this time round.

  • Hi Floxxie

    I hope your children are a bit better, we had disturbed sleep again, DD3 crying cause she couldn't breathe, the other two coughing in their room, they are both off school today, didn't want to take them out in the cold, plus don't want them spreading it around.

    They can miss Ballet tonight too, they won't like that.

  • Have sold one of my items I listed yesterday, all the 10 day ones I did I put auction with BIN and have sold one of them.

    Going to see what else I can do today, I have a baby changing bag that I forgot to put on yesterday and have some clothing that needs ironing, so might try and iron a bit later, I never iron anything so it will be fun - NOT!!

    Thanks ladies: DS3 full of cold and coughing well but hopefully it won't last too long this time.It sounds like there is much of it about.

    Have wrapped two parcels for eBay and two for Amazon so will post those when I walk to pick up DS1 from school.

    Feeling very tired but will get on with listing preparation later.

  • Yippee, got my listings up to 154 active now. Sold £30 worth of things today so really pleased there.

    hopw all your little ones aren't too bad, my ds who is 13 was sent hom from school last tuesday, and he is still off, sore throat, earache cold etc, so much around at the minute isnt there?
  • I have a headache today, kids are off school, at least I'm not taking them to ballet tonight, I called to say they would not be there. They are all coughing away, another night of hardly any sleep ahead I think.

    I sold two Business items today and one of the items I listed yesterday sold too, I only have 2 of my 'best seller' left now, that means I sold 10 as I bought them in a pack of 12, I have ordered two more lots of them so have 24 arriving tomorrow.

    Cooking dinner at the moment, sausages, potatoes and I will have peas and the little ones will probably want spaghetti hoops.

    We have all just watched Hairspray, I do love that DVD.
