  • sold my itunes and boosted my total by...................wait for it..........................84p! yeah yeah I know its not much but its still a little more to add to the pot! they sold within a couple of hours of listing them on ebay!

    have listed a cuple of other items, got a few more to list this evening.

    Ive also roped my future sil to come along on sunday to the car boot sale with me so anything that doesnt sell on ebay this week can come with me and ill try and get rid of it there
    finally debt free and want to keep it that way!!
  • changed my mind on listing the other items, im going to save the hassle and keep them for the boot sale, wont have the hassle of sitting here all evening listing them and then the hassle of having to post them as well!

    has anyone taken advantage of then 5p listing day if you offer free postage? done it on a couple of things that wont cost alot to post and then thought what the hell if their not paying for postage then ill send it out 2nd class post and save a little there!

    Did a couple of matched betting qualifiers at the weekend and have £50 and £25 free bets waiting to be hauled in. Can't afford to lay them both at once, so I'll do one tomorrow and one the day after that, probably.

    In the meantime, to get a few pennies in to the total I have been .... :eek: GAMBLING!! Made £11.40 this afternoon doing a bit of "rag-bagging", ie laying horses. Don't recommend this at all if you're not already well into the horseracing, as the risk is high for a small return if you don't know what you're doing.

    Sold stuff on ibootsale this weekend but all for family members, nathin' fur me.:( Just have to keep on pluggin' away here!
  • found a pound coin and a penny today

    listed my tesco clothing vouchers on ebay, hope they get a bid

    been looking for stuff to buy for new flat, picked up some new habitat glass tea light holders at the same place as the cds for 50p which i thought was a bargain (like them too much to list on ebay)

    problem is now i want my longue to be Habitat and Ikea and that stuff costs more than the bog-standard stuff (grrrr!), but got a nice glass clock on ebay for not a lot of cash

    contracts should be able to be exchanged on Friday
    Debt of £6300 cleared in 5 years, now ZERO
  • Ted Baker shirt sold for around £4 which is good as i only paid 77p for it

  • some of the stuff from ikea isnt that expensive, the only problem is you go there and see so much you like you spend a fortune!!
