    Thank guys.

    'baby is being a right pain today and is crying eveytime I put him down (poor mites teething I think) ...I'm off to think (while trying to get a screaming baby to the post office)

    I like it - baby won't stop screaming, so i'll package him up and put him in the post :T
    Hope you're declaring your profits :p
    Just £10,852.28p to go...

    :D

    Trust that little voice in your head that says "Wouldn't it be interesting if...";
    And then do it.

    yay, I'm member no 344 :j :j

    Just finished catching up on the posts I've missed. I managed to get to the Post Office to send my jewellery to Hatton Gold, I got an online quote from them which was far better than a local jewellers I tried so fingers crossed that comes good.

    Just checked my ebay listings and I have a few bids and a few watchers. I also had a question about a pair of shoes I had listed, I don't usually sell shoes but I have so many I decided to have a clear out, anyhow I received a bit of a pervy request :eek: :eek: I have ended the listing in shock !!

    i have pm'd you

    i have just gone htrough quidco (£5 cashback:D) and just been accepted for the american express cashback credit card..it pays 5% cashback for the first 3 months and then up to 1.25%

    here is the mse write up on it

    http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/cards/cashback-credit-cards

    instead of using cash or my debit card i am shoving EVERYTHING ( including my business spends;)) and paying it off at the end of the month,

    or buy items using the card instead of the cash in my purse, and then pay the cash straight off the card.......simples....

    in effect its FREE money....... but its GOT TO BE PAID IN FULL EVERY MONTH...

    If you are going shopping etc with family and close friends, you could use your card, and they can give you the cash, but you have to be a strong willed person here, to make sure the cash does get paid off the credit card...


    If you play this card right, you could have a tidy cashback sum:money::T

    omg maybe I've lived a sheltered life or something ??!!! Thinking about my message obviously there's a massive market for used shoes. I have to admit that mine were used but certainly not knackered or smelly !!! Maybe I need to re-list, lol !!!!


    Ok, I'm giggling now ... not sure if it's shock, nerves or what but who would buy some old shoes for crazy prices ?!!! I have read through some of the posts on the link and it's so funny
