    Don't forget about the final value selling fees on ebay - that's always the killer sting!

    (ignore me if you've already accounted for that!)

    The paypal fees came off automatically, I've told Ian to just give me whatever was leftover after the fees etc though so will know exactly how much I get once he's sorted it out :)

  • IA you also get a bill for the final value fees from ebay do you know that? Thats as well as listing fees (in your case free this time) and paypal fees so its not cheap to sell things on ebay these days. Although its definately still worth it.

    Ok so small confession... I used the credit card to get supplies for my friend's birthday present to the tune of about £23 *holds out wrists to be slapped*. It's my own stupid fault for forgetting to budget for it so I guess using the credit card was a fairly worthy punishment... but now I've used the credit card I can work the paying off the extra into the budgets for the coming weeks to ensure I have it paid off by the end of april still. So I'll still get punished one way or another LOL.

    In my defence it wasn't a usual present though, I did a handmade canvas drawing of our little group of friends.. hopefully she'll like it as about 4 hours of work went into it, plus I have supplies left over to do 3 more canvasses which I'm going to do for other friends :)

    Other than that and the bass lesson I've not spent any real money this week. I've got about £19 left of my budget left but I want this to go towards what I spent on the credit card. I also had to spend another £5.90 on it to send the last ebay item, but those are now all sent so by rights there's nothing else to pay for. :) in total £48.26 has gone on the credit card this week :eek: but £23 was non ebay related so I just have that to punish myself for lol.

    As tomorrow is TC day I have the money to pay off the egg card again so here's what I'm planning to pay off tomorrow.

    £82.09 normal egg budget
    £10 from band I didn't have this week.

    I have £18.28 (just checked) I've not yet usedout of 'my' budget, so I plan on not using as much as possible of that to go towards the credit card.

    Here's the spending diary so far..
