Missy Moo's No Messin Money Saving adventure!

youareallhelpingme

I've just packed up a parcel for m-magpie. £7.70, better than nothing and a lot less hassle than ebay. We now have a "pot" for a change of car/holiday dream type thing, so this and anything from ebay is going in it - in a virtual way as it will be in the bank. It will be accessible in case of emergency but hopefully it won't be needed.

8 watchers on ebay - 1 bid, fingers crossed :dance:.

fingers crossed, ive got 8 bids on a coat on there and watching on practically everything else, ive spent most of the evening sorting through my ebay stuff, and trying bits on. Although thinking about it now I shouldn't consider stuff I should just put them on there.... hmmm will do some more tomorrow.

morning, goodness its early, am going to go out for a run shortly, yes i know im mad! i just woke up this early not sure why, but im not complaining beats the alarm any day! Im doing well with the not buying lunches ive got soup for my lunch this week, this alone is saving me lots of pennies.

i hope you all have lovely days.

I love running but couldnt face it here in the dark.

9 watchers this morning :j. I do have some other bits to go on but with ebay fees etc and the amount I have in the loft to carboot it might just get packed away in boxes and put up with the rest so I can't see it.

Long day out today, got to go to lots of places so will be in and out of the car, taking lunch with me too :money:

Morning Hun, guess DH is back .

I ended up with 34 watchers, got a good price but when the payer went to use paypal it said they had sent their maximum without making the account official type thing, so will have to wait a few days for payment while they go through the security motions. At least it sold.

I've been reading the make £10 a day thread. I'm not going to join officially but will keep a note of how we do. I'm going to count it when payments arrive and I know we will have £7.70 to come in from Music Magpie, plus ebay less fees.

Do you go on Bingoport as I can refer you and I get a bonus, you play with free points you earn by posting and MSers exchange for Amazon vouchers - this may help with your text books or gifts.

Hey Missy,

Have finally caught up, got so many diaries I keep forgetting which ones I've posted in (and finished reading).

Rice pudding sounds fabulous, but oh so fattening, love it though. Hope you don't mind but I shamelessly copied and pasted your list (well the titles) about house, wellbeing etc., as I need a plan of action. I'll update with stuff relevant to myself though.

hello lovelies

sorry for being away for so long, OH is home tomorrow, so cant use him as an excuse, have just been really busy with running, yep still at it, felt a bit horrid with my weight, so kept a low profile rather than posting moans. Have come up with a low carb/low carb diet plan but whilst trying to eat as normally as possible etc. Will start Tuesday and let you know how I get on. have 18lbs 8.4kgs to lose, due to stuffing my face and being a right pig since christmas really!

So on my goals, I am doing ok with fitness, am obviously starting again this week on diet, am spending more time with friends too which is nice and I have even made new ones which is fab, have started a sort of sewing group too which although a little sad lol Im loving. Still need to work on my spending, studying and well being but I am getting there.

Have done well with ebay have made £130ish which is good. Will try and put a couple more bits on tonight.

Right need to work on my diet plan a little more, have two assignments to do too, and think Im going to make myself a cuppa!!

Speak soon

xx

Welcome back Missy, we missed you. Even if you would have posted moans:). I always moan but hey, that's my life nowadays:).Joining you on the diet thread, starting tomorrow, I have appr. 5kgs to lose due to not being able to do any exercise with knee (and still can't ).

Well done on Ebay sales, keep up the good work!

ok diet went to pot when OH was delayed and now he is home i am eating for england, but we are away this weekend so my new diet plan will start on monday and will start running again. Life is getting on top of me a bit at the moment, my own fault, I have left and left my assignments to the very last minute, so i have one to write tonight and one next week, and have already had extensions on them!!! Work is so taxing and physically and mentally draining, its wearing me out I am so so tired at the moment! Really really need to sort my life out and be more organised, so that im not sitting up until midnight, when my OH has just come home to write essays that I could have written weeks ago. :(I guess I just need a shove in the right direction and a couple of days to organise myself, my life and my stuff......:(

I have decided at the moment coffee is the answer!!!
