    Thanks Chevailer!! Well a lot going on just going through a Ebay sale so Ive sold 6 items this week :j with another one potentially going over the weekend. The credit card has been slashed by £82 but I have spent £30 on it for food and a Mothers Day gift. So that should take it down to £360:T so I am feeling really good about it all. I listed another 10 items, my poor flatmate theres parcels everywhere!!

    Ok my Ebay sale went really well. I have 6/11 items sell on Thurs night, with one relisted and already sold! So everything is packaged up and sent. Ebay have a free listing weekend so will get my head together tomorrow and think what I am selling.

    Just checked my bank account and I have £26 left in my account :eek:. I think I'll be using my overdraft again but its more expensive to use my CC than my overdraft so that comes first.

    Just having a relaxing evening as I feel shattered my Ebay sale finished late on Thurs evening, never again though!

    Just taken advantage of the Free Listing day on Ebay and have watchers already on some of the higher priced items :D.

    Feeling quite positive, could've had a NSD today if I hadnt have had to do food shopping but I needed food and hope to make that last me, it cost £18 which isnt bad I think I will get 10 meals out of it if I am wise!

    May need to spend tomorrow for lunch at work tho, havent got anything in to eat and wont get my delivery till tomorrow at 8pm! Ok off to relax a bit more..

    Ok I thought I would punk up this diary!! Thats better! Ok no NSD today as predicted no food in the cupboards to have but my Tesco delivery should arrive soon so I plan a NSD tomorrow!

    I have been thinking to set myself a goal for this month! I want to pay the whole of my Tesco Credit card by the end of this month which means I need to make £360 this month that would be awesome to be able to pay two debts off within a month. Off to hitch a masterplan.....

    Got some more good news, my application for Barclaycard has been approved...phew :cool: and I have been given a credit limit of....£4800 shockingly high :eek: but it also means that I can transfer the Tesco card and have the debt as one! So once the card comes through I will get the BT sorted as Santanders BT expires on the 23rd!

    Paid £21 off Tescos so will update my sig!

    Got Ebay parcels to sort and questions to answer.....

    That is a high limit - the banks don't change in trying to tempt people do they!!
    Sounds like Ebay is going well, I need to get back on there myself..
    Very inspiring though, you're doing well!!

    Kirri, its a ridiculously high limit. I nearly fell off the sofa when I first saw it. It was only a email so once its in writing I will believe it. I think they let you BT a certain percentage so even if it half thats my debt covered!

    Was doing a six month forecast today I think my debt will paid off by Nov, I am aiming for sooner tho but I keep at Ebaying tho thats what will make a difference!

    Had another NSD today! Im getting there and the good thing I have no parties planned till after payday! I have been invited to one but I think I'll decline! :)
