It will be GONE !!!

Hi, I got email from ebay yesterday saying that it is free listing day on 18th and 19th Feb, so if you're listing any big items, it might be worth doing them then.

I took 4 18ct gold rings into town earlier to see how much i would get and they offered my £62 so I have kept them and thought i might try them on ebay any thoughts anyone?
.

Hi there, well done on dealing with your debt, try Hatton Garden Metals for your rings (there is a whole thread dedicated to this with everyone's feedback on the Up Your Income Board) - I sold a few earrings, rings, chains and broken bits and got £270 a couple of weeks ago, gold prices are at their all time high at the moment. You can get a quote online and the money was in my bank account within 2 hours of them receiving my items. Worth a look!

Thanks for the messages they are very helpful although not managed any ebay listing tonight just not enough hours in the day today.
Good news won £53 on bb must be getting to the end of my free money but cant wait to pay of my debt when it hits the bank so that will bring it under £250 plus have a few bids on ebay stuff although not big money its a start. I dont think we will have anything left in the bank at the end of the month but i will find this money im going to bust this one.
Am i doing the right thing lowering credit limits as i pay things off ?

Off to check ebay now thanks again everyone

Good news took lunch to work everyday this week :T
Ebay sales are going well sold a buy it now £25 and have bids up to £41.50

Weekly shopping £31.17 and we have tons of food

Quick update smallest debt £296.38 less £30 bingo win wednesday less £2 coins £26 less £25 ebay sale less £29 tonights bingo win less ebay bids so far £41.50 and the grand total to find £144.88 and 9 days to do it.

Well some of my ebay listing have finished and all I need now is £68.21 the it's goodbye VERY (nasty people) oh how I have dreamed of writing that letter to say thanks for charging me soooooooooo much interested but our relationship is over. Hopefully there will be enough left in the bank before my wages go in Friday to clear it.
I still have over 50 items on ebay so theres still time for more to finish I am determind to shift my first debt by the end of February.
Going to try and be super positive this week as job has been a bit pants recently and trying to be debt busting queen has all got a bit much
So this week I will

1. Take lunch everyday
2. Hunt for a few more bits to ebay
3. Try music magpie have lots of old cds and games
4. Make that big payment to VERY (nasty people)
5. Wrap DH birthday pressies in old wrapping paper

Im sure there is lots for me to do this week but I will not get stressed.If only DH payrise would come through was promised it back in October but he wont ask feels it's wrong, I would if it were me but I cant change him. It would make so much difference to our DFD could even knock a year off :eek::eek::eek::eek:

Herewego - I too have subscribed to your thread - you have done so very well to clear a debt already - I am still trying to work out how to create enough money to make minimum payments! But then you were kind enough to read my diary and therefore you already know that!

Its hard, but as Cialilerin said, as long as you don't get any more, you are on the road to recovery, as it where!

Best of luck and at least you are not alone!

Hi i am reading good luck and well done so far!xx

A good weekend on ebay and that 1st debt is nearly gone just under £40 to find paid another £30 off today and just need to transfer my paypal balance.This will free up £20 month that i was paying to pay to my next debt which is slightly larger.
Only 4 days until payday I used to look forward to it so I could spend again now its so i can pay things off and see the balance reduce even if it is only by a bit. I also find it strangely satisfying drawing the cash out to put in the relevant pots shopping/ school dinners/cars/ xmas not got far enough into debt busting to have a holiday pot yet maybe next year.
Thanks all for dropping by its nice to have some company along the way

Not too bad a day just bought bread and a jar of VALUE lemon curd 23p I just cant give it up not sure what it will taste like but you have to try needs must and all that.
Ebay cash transferred from paypal £185.00 and £10.98 coming from amazon tomorrow and I have £30 in £2 coins so thats to come off VERY so that leaves £40.40.
We have £72.00 left in the bank as at today and its payday FRIDAY :j
VERY YOU WILL BE GONE :D:D:D

Other good news bids on ebay stuff at £29.20, Oh and I sold a book on amazon £2.70 profit
Looks like we made through the month and I only got 60% of my pay as I started my new job part way through the month, does this mean I will have more money at the end of March, can't wait to find out

Herewego

Payments made today £11.38 from amazon paid to very rounded up to get rid of the pence and then £30 from £2 coins so Very is so Very close to going come on paypal cough up i need to make that payment.
Small amount of progress from a compaint I put in against Lloyds TSB they have refunded 2 x £ 12 and made 2 x £15 out of pocket expenses so now I need to claim back my old charges which totals £221. Then my next mission is to try and get my band reduced on my council tax if I do that I could be in for a nice windfall. I think we should all get a reduced rate this year as roads are falling apart now the snow has gone and when we had snow the roads were covered in ice and dangerous our bins didnt get emptied but i bet they will put it up again.
OK moans over ebay sales are coming along nicely and one more day til payday oh the excitement :j:j:j:j
