    Im watching you ;)

    Just back from York bit windy and wet and I declined everything I was going to buy as kept thinking I could pay it off the cc instead, think I have forgotten how to spend.
    I will be back for an update later on ebay listings I know its boring but think of the pennies and after tomorrow the extra fees are starting

    LOL see how you appeared out of the woodwork - thought you would still be in York. Sorry it wasn't a spending feast........but you do have to get a b/day gift!

    Extra fees - do you mean the limit of 99p items?

    Sad as it is best bday gift i could get is clearing another cc, never been one to send much on clothes and make up. My problem is spending on eating out and holidays.

    Ebay are starting to charge if you list more than 100 items a month, it will be 10p each item over, soon reduces your profit

    Now what are the chances of me listing more than 100 items a month!

    I thought it was just if you listed at over 100 items at 99p


    Then you should go to fav restuarant for your b/day...you deserve a treat and because of bonus, you wont have to save for it!
