    Hi all.

    I used to do the Ikea thing on ebay, years ago. Quite a good little profit to be made, esp if you are going there anyway.

    The ebay market took a dip for this stuff after a while, if its picking up again then its worth a go, I think.

    Popular stuff used to be plastic baby utensils, plates, etc.

    costing for traybakes tonight and popped in to shop this morning going to do trial run for cupcakes and see how they go, he already sells pre packed ones but they are a bit boring.

    evenstar - how did DD get on today?

    as for the ikea thing there is tons of stuff i would like but a 3-4hr round trip, doesnt justify a rake round and as the furthest north is Edinburgh i can see it being popular with people who live miles away

    Em, I know its not funny bit you do make me smile. hope your tummy doesn't hurt too much for too long.
    I'm feeling a bit down today. partly the messy kitchen cos there is lots I want to get on with cooking and no space. but then I know the reason is DH has been unpacking and sorting through stuff we put away during the building works. so boxes everywhere. but only cos he is doing something constructive.
    and partly cos I want an idea that gives me a real buzz and I haven't got one.
    and partly cos been working out a budget and debt repayments and it is all really tight. and whilst it feels good to have a clear picture of the situation it is hard going ploughing through it.
    Then kids are feeling a bit bored and DS is starting to feel better and restless but not up to doing much. so climbing the walls a bit.
    there we are I'll probably feel much better in a few minutes for getting it off my chest.
