    Ha, well I ended up staying up way too late again last night but managed to get a decent sleep so I don't feel so tired today. Really want to get an earlyish night in tonight though so I'm nice and fresh for an ebaying weekend :cool2:

    I sold 4 items today, all smallish bits and three of them were my sisters so I've just got a cut from them but it's all money in the pot once they're paid up. Just doing some relists tonight to give me a wee bit of motivation while playing some free bingo at the same time (no luck there though!) Then I'm going to do an hour or two at job 3 to push on with that lot.

    It's all go here today :rotfl:

    Right, once I've finished my lunch I'm going to get photos taken of the bag of clothes for ebay, ready for listing this weekend. Feel really tired today but depending on what's happening with work tonight I might just push on for as long as I really can so I get descriptions written up for them all too. Once that bag's out of the way I've still got a mountain of little bits to list :o

    hey! just catching up. good news about the free listings! must get organised for it now.

    Hope the car is coming along.it's so good having a car so you can escape when needed!

    Good luck with the listings

    The car's also a job for tomorrow! Getting there slowly, in a way I'm glad I got a fixer-upper even though it'll end up costing about the same as having bought one with years mot etc as it's meant that I could spread the cost out over a few paycheques rather than put it on the card and "pay it off later" as that never happens no matter how good my intentions are :o

    Have started photographing, hate doing clothes as I feel I've got to get as many angles in as possible!

    Happy listing prep :D

    Afternoon! Have been a busy wee bee already today, which makes a change on my days off! I'm aiming for 35 new items listed this weekend so I'd better get cracking on that :)

    Think I ended up with just 18 new items listed, felt like crap so I curled up under my duvet and watched some films :o

    Working tonight so I'm def not going to be doing any ebay listing, but earning money all the same, which is much needed as I don't seem to be getting anywhere with this debtbusting carryon :sad:
