Ebay Hmmmmmmmmmmm I know i have so much to list but just cant get motivated during the week I do have 31 items listed but i probably have 100s to list. My problem is everyone is so busy writing in their diaries i just have to read them then I run out of time and have to go to bed.:o
Good news ran 2 miles on the treadmill tonight and lost 1 1/2 lb this week.
I bought myself an energy meter after christmas and have managed to cut my gas and electric by £80 this month so it has already paid for itself:T DD had dropped by £52 a month but still think this can go down more so going to put monthly readings through every month just to keep on top of it.
Ive had a rubbish day at work today so put 3 lines on the lottery for tonight anything if there is a chance i dont have to go back tomorrow. If I dont win I have decided to put my £3 i put on every saturday in a pot as i haven't won anything for so long and let it build up for holidays or debt busting.MARCH 2016 DEBT £25750/ £25035

List CDs and DVDs, its easy and no photographing required as they have most of them in stock! I am procrastinating, of course, because I have LOADS of clothes and other carp to sell and just dread the thoughts of it!LBM Feb 2010 £62,700 Total Debt Jan 11 [STRIKE]£49,403.84[/STRIKE] £47,530.32.

Ok my challenge to be completed by Sunday night is 100 items listed, i know I can do it and would be nice to see the carpet in the lounge again I will update during the weekend to keep myself focused when I take coffee breaks. I am banning myself from sitting on here until I have completed this challenge. Already feeling motivated might even do a few tonight :T
Another challenge for this weekend is hubby needed some cash so gave him £40 of my £50 shopping budget so im borrowing £10 from next week that gives me just over £20 with my odd bots of change left from this week. Looks like we are living out of the freezer it can be done:cool: i think !
Oh yeah sold a book on amazon profit 7.20 after postage and sold 4 iitems on ebay £9.96 so not too bad for one evening.MARCH 2016 DEBT £25750/ £25035

well done on the sales, the fees from Amazon are horrendous, but they do seem to sell for more than Ebay.

Well quite a productive night weekly shop came in just over £12 been to a friends for coffee and cleaned the whole upstairs :j
Nothing extra paid off the debts and DH has just mentioned he is out tomorrow night with the lads not very good for the budget and although he says hes budgeting it only seems to be when hes with me, because during the day hes still buying fags, snacks and lunch :mad:
15/100 items listed on ebay so far would like to be at 50 before I have to go out and take DS training at 11.00am, and I'd also like to bake a cake so we have a nice treat this week.
I also need to squeeze in a few miles on the treadmill well lets see what I can achieve in the next 12 hours
