    Hey you...yes you STOP putting it off by reading these boards and checking facebook!!.....get on with that ebaying !!! :rotfl:

    I must admit though, ive been trying to gear myself up to get started with the free listing....ive relisted 3 items that didnt sell last night so far, but that only took a few clicks :o

    I have someone popping round at 1 pm to view some jewellery thats too good to scrap, then im going to get started on the photos and discriptions...promise!!

    Yes its a pain listing but think of the money honey! :T


    Re : My brother, Thanks everyone, yes its brilliant to have him come home and a Big step forward. I went round yesterday and gave him an overdue hair cut, which i think will make him feel a little more refreshed..... i wanted to give him a mohark but he wasn't having non of it..lol

    The eBay listing isn't going too well to be honest. I feel like utter rubbish - headache and my eyes are stinging. Managed to get 15 or 16 items on so that will do for now until I go to bed and see what I can face doing afterwards. I do have 3 of my "big ticket" items on though - two ASOS dresses and a Primark dress that someone sold for £40 on eBay - so I went to buy it to sell. Hoping it has some interest and at least nets me a little over the money paid for it if nothing else.

    Off to bed I go. Fingers crossed I feel better after a nap and can tackle more eBay bits.

    Made £13.84 from Bingo. Not a great deal I know but I am rather pleased as the bank account I use to deposit with is a very old one that had nearly a £100 overdraft on it & slowly but surely, I am clearing it solely with bingo wins! I think it has a minus of about only £30 now.

    Oooh, congrats Hopless!!!
    Definitely a good motivator though, particularly for Ebay etc. I sold skips worth out of our place during my pregnancy as I just knew we had a date in time to try and get everything done for, and of course the money, and not to mention the space, is extremely useful!!! :D

    Must get off MSE and get back on EBAY EBAY EBAY!!

    Only managed to list one item on ebay.

    My other half is going to do a car boot sale next weekend so hopefully that clears alot of the stuff.

    Most of our money is going towards paying for our wedding. However I cant wait to start tackling my debts.

    I got to 40 items on eBay and I'm going to have to call it quits. Already have a £1.99 bid on something - rolling it in! Hope everyone manages to keep listing.
