    Thanks - that's something I need to make time for this weekend then! I like it that on free listing weekends you can list things in 2 categories for free too, I have some bits that are 99p starters but I want to put them in two categories so they can go on.

    Get stuff together tonight and prepare listings tomorrow and then list on Sunday as I'm out tomorrow night. Will aim to get 10 listings done this weekend. Already have one thing on but on it's 3rd outing so don't hold out too much hope but does have 1 watcher this time so you never know!

    3 things sold this week, 2 paid for and need to post today, 1 still waiting for payment. Then I'm going to work out my selling stuff totals and get myself back in gear and really try hard in April!

    I totally forgot I'm going out tonight so won;t be able to spend the evening listing. I never usually end my listings in the afternoon but guess I'll have to take the risk. At least I can start them at decent prices, so even a bid at the starting price will be fine.

    Hi Completely Lost

    Good to see someone else is around. I haven't got much done either, I also don't like listing too early in the day, am waiting until about 5pm onwards to get listing (that is if OH doesn't ring up and say about going out for dinner as it's Mother's Day), I'm hoping he doesn't as I have lots I want to get listed and if we go out I won't be back until about 7pm probably and then will have to get the kids ready for bed. OH is working today so doesn't finish until about 4.30/5pm.

    I did some relists yesterday for 10 days, have some more relists for tonight and some new items.

    Hope everyone else is quiet because they are sorting out stuff or listing. Really need to make lots of dosh but most of the stuff I want to list is new stuff (over bought toys at xmas) and don't want to be forced to change to a Business account as I have two of those already. I never bought these items to resell they are just things I bought for Xmas presents for my girls (will teach me to look at the Grabbit board around Xmas time).

    Happy listing everyone, will check back later and update on how many I do manage to get listed.

    I havent listed anything yet, i will have a look at around 3pm and then start listing about 6 when the little one goes off to bed, I am thinking craft stuff to be honest thats about all i can think of thats worth ebaying.

    Hi lovecrafting

    Good luck getting some things listed, how old is your little one? Mine are 6, 5 and 2 (all girls), they are being very well behaved today and are playing outside so I'm able to have some peace and quiet to sort some things out ready for later. Hope you find some stuff to get listed, not sure how well craft stuff sells as I don't sell anything like that.

    Hiya,
    My girls are 4 (next week) & (last week) and 8 (on the 23rd) there not playing out today but have decided on a pyjama day soa re sitting round watching dvd's and making lots of noise.

    I have an incubator and a few books to go on aswel, the incubator is needing a part but there easily got so thats worth sticking on. then i am going to go and raid the diding room, im sure i will find ten things in there without even looking too hard, my motto is if it hasnt been unpacked it isnt really needed.

    please excuse the bad typing i am really hung over today

    43 items listed this evening, totally exhausted and back killing me so i had better get some bids!!!!

    Fingers crossed some of it sells, I already have watchers so it's looking good. Having said that though last free listing day I had 16 watchers on one item and no bids

    I've listed about 6 items today

    Had too busy a day to do more but one of them I wanted to start at a high price so I'm glad I got that on at least
