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!!0

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!0 -
Just taken advantage of the Free Listing day on Ebay and have watchers already on some of the higher priced items
.
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..0 -
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.....

Ok two bits of good news today (its been a good day) 1 I had my first NSD since forever! 2 I received news I might receive a bonus in my next pay packet....enough to put a smile on my face
That is all.......:o0 -
Thats two very good pieces of news well done0

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!!0 -
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!0
