    Um, not quite what we're doing but this might give you a chuckle http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180038805076

    Absolute classic - I love the Q&A - particularly the one that says 'If hubby gets the kids will you be needing the yellow slide' he he... talk about lack of sensitivity :D

  • just a thought for next year if there is another or similar challenge i expect there will be:D

    i have noticed veg and flower plants sell well on ebay.... and at the mo... with gardening things being reduced including seeds.... might be worth.. buying some seeds out of your money from nothing purse.... and then plant them and sell on ebay in the spring and summer....

    give you a head start ...on new challenges...:rolleyes:

    do you feel impatient...while you are waiting for your things to sell on ebay for this challenge...i feel as though i am sitting here doing nothing...but hatho wait until tomorrow when i list more things:D
