    It was 'by invitation only', pammy - ebay sent out emails to certain people giving them 2 day's FL. I got mine towards the end of the promo - but not on my usual ebay ID, on an old previous business one (unused in over a year) DH didn't get one on his account, either.

    Hopefully they'll have a FLD/ FLW for all later this month - I have a heap of unsold stuff and have got the ebay bug again at the mo! :D

    Great news on teh ebaying, well done. Need to get some of your motivation for doing that. I feel that the regular disappearance of £3k from my building account will do it.

    lol! I fel that it might give you an added incentive, too! :D

    Have DS1 at home today - sickness bug :( His 3 siblings were ill with it over the weekend. MAsses of washing (bedding sets, lots of cuddly toys, 2 lots of sofa covers, numerous changes of clothes/ PJs, towels) and some new cushions (delicate silk covers didn't survive!! :D) Also waiting for BG man to come and change a burst radiator - good job it's not been cold, as it's the main lounge rad! He should hopefully be here soon....

    Have OP'd £165 today from ebay. Have another £14+ in paypal account and waiting for a £23 payment for some other items- so should be able to withdraw hopefully another £35 when that eventually arrives! That'll knock another month off my end date - yeay!

    Fix rate on larger part of mtge ends this month, so I'll need to swap OPs over to the smaller (but higher int rate) part of the mortgage to get the best return. Looking good to get sub £95k in first half of Oct :D

    Sent another £50 OP - had £20 from mutualrewards, £10 from jackpot joy, withdrew £10 from paypal and rounded it up to £50! :D

    Still waiting for my ebayer to pay.... :(

    Off to see DH's accountant tomorrow. Looking to withdraw some more money in dividends in Oct, or we're going to be rather skint!

    Made plum jam yesterday (free plums) Was meant to be for Xmas pressies, but it's REALLY yummy! May put 2 jars aside for pressies and keep the rest for me...!. ;)

  • Hello,

    Very envious of your ebaying but I have been all over the house nd really can't find anything that I can imagine anyone buying... This is a tight month and a top up would be good but everything I own is knackered...

    Paid off mortgage nine years early in 2013. Now picking and choosing our work to fit in with the rest of our lives!
    Still thrifty though, after all these years:D
  • hi greent
    hope the kids feel better soon!
    well done on the ebaying and the jam making- both things I have yet to get around to! ;) like SSS most of the stuff left in my house now I probably would struggle to give to a charity shop let alone ebay!
