It takes a lot of effort for only small reward however it is getting my house decluttered and is one more £1 in my pocket (or off the credit card:D). Have you thought about doing a car boot (or 2)? Not everything is good for ebay so anything that isn't or doesn't sell I am putting in a separate box and then when the weather is better I'm going to do a car boot...if it doesn't sell from that it will either go in the bin or to the charity shop

Why is it when things start to pick up and seem to be going well someone throws a spanner in the works.....can you believe someone has stolen, yes stolen, my rear windscreen wiper :mad:. They have taken the time to unclip the wiper unit, probably so they can use it on their car. I am sooo mad it's ridiclous.....something else I have to find the money for now :mad: :mad: :mad:Natwest Card 27.06.10 (reduce every month) £267.63

So, I've netted £18.68 :T into paypal from the first lot of ebay items finishing (after postage and fees etc) added to what's already in there totals just over £68. I'm going to wait until the end of the month and then withdraw the balance (still 16 active items) and take that off a card. :T
Had confirmation from music magpie that they have received my package and are processing the contents :j
Found a site that buys postage stamps today so need to photo DH's childhood collection and see if it's worth anything. We're not holding out much hope but anything is better than nothing and he doesn't want it anymore

So, will make at least £13.17 (after fees and postage) on 14 things ending this evening.
Weighed in tonight and stayed the same...at least it's not a gain
Made monthly payments to CC today so paid a total of £194.83 leaving £138 to find to stay on track. If I make no more on ebay this evening my total in paypal will just top £80 leaving just £58.....best go find some more stuff to stick on ebay!!! :rotfl:Natwest Card 27.06.10 (reduce every month) £267.63

Hi Nelmer, sorry I've not checked in for a bit - I've subscribed now, so won't lose you again

Wow, you're going great guns on Ebay :T I'll be taking a leaf out of your book today. And well done on the weight - maintaining still means weight lost, so keep at it. It's my weigh in tomorrow, but I wobbled yesterday
Grrrr to the wiper blade! :mad: Why would someone do that?!?!?
Hope you have a good day x0 -
I am really annoyed about the wiper blade......hopefully found a replacement from a scrapyard for £11 so not as bad as I originally thought :j
I had a serious wobble with the food last Sunday so really please with the maintain.
Ebay is dropping off at the moment, all my auctions have come to an end and I don't have anything else to list.....trip into the loft tomorrow me thinks!
Have a good day xNatwest Card 27.06.10 (reduce every month) £267.63
