    Hi everyone

    Just did anyother shop and spent my £5 voucher - already counted. Saved £11.77 using voucers and deals and also had my first Amazon book sold but I think I have to wait for 14 days.

    Just a word to any woudl be book sellers; I couldn't believe it was so easy. I only posted the book on yesterday - only needed to type in the ISBN code and the book was on sale. This morning sold. Great. So I've put a few more on.

    All that takes my saving up to £780.60. Can't believe it. And thanks for all the great ideas.

    I must remember to take a look in the old handbags - thanks CatherineMM.

    Have a great Sunday evening.

    Not counted but have got a tray of fresh eggs, some gorgeous cherry toms and home grown green beans from Mum today :) <She's a star!
    Just spend some of my paypal funds on a little gift for her as she is always doing stuff like this. This is another reason I have done this challenge month after month- I've always got a little bit hanging around to do something spontaneous like treating someone etc (not that anyone expects it!), as so many support my frugal / MS ways!

    Keep checking your ebay accounts everyone!

    DS fractured his arm yesterday, so spent 5 hours at A&E, getting it seen to, so only managed to do 10 listings. never mind, will wait for next listing day.
  • £20.58 to add for me from ebay refunded postage fees...

    I had a weird sunday night listing on ebay. I never had an email about free listings so went ahead to list everything at the free start price of 99p! and was listing from 10pm until 12am. I noticed that between 11pm and midnight listings went to free regardless of category and start price... so I upped my prices. I listed 4 pages of items for a total of only 65p in the end. At midnight the prices went back to normal so I went to bed. I will try again tonight at 11pm. You never know ;)

    Fingers crossed my stuff will sell.
