Evening everyone,

not been on here much this month as i've been having a bit of a rough time. OH has moved out so now it's just me and the kids. Making my monthly target is now more important than ever although this month as you can imagine i've kinda had other things on my mind but i'm trying my hardest to get things back to normal.
Have spent the last week sorting out money things and have managed to claim £40 in argos vouchers which i'll add to my pitiful monthly total so far.
Hope everyone else is doin ok

Well p***sed off! I came home early tonight to list all my clothing I got ready for free listings weekend, and after listing about 7 items ebay said that i had reached my limit for the month for listing well known labels (or high street, really cant remember), and i couldnt list anymore for 30 days!?!?! I got another 10 items of clothing to list yet!!! GRRRRRRRRRR

I think i listed 2 items of clothing a couple of weeks ago, so are we allowed only 10???!!!! They said i could list more if i become a business seller, and well i aint becoming one of them!

£129 from fathers day cakes today (it was actually £155 but £20 was petrol and then a few pennies on lunch for me and the baby!) Took me 3 hrs to make them all and 5 HOURS(!!!) to deliver them! Im pooped! Still have to make some for the boy to give to his Dad(we're not together anymore and Im feeling generous!) and sort some stuff out for a possible car boot tomo. Have to get up at 5am so not sure about that after today! Anyhoo, cider time :beer:

ooh OOH-I've reached my target! Only just realised! Deffo cider time!

It will be those they see as designer. I was stopped listing a 2nd hand Ralph Lauren t shirt at £5 but was allowed to list lk Bennett shoes at £100. Silly rules.

I can't list Boots no7 at the moment! (too many £5 freebies) but can list rubie and Millie which are the same.

Oh dear, sorry to hear everyone is having a bit of a poo day. I've found it's been one of those days where it's one thing going wrong after another. Only little things, but when it's a continuous feeling over the day it can really bring you down.

As a result, mainly of technical errors, I've only done 8 new listings today. Have 10 scheduled that I will start tomorrow, but to get to the 50 (I think it was 50 anyway, will have a look in a mo) that I set myself in our little challenge, I've still got 32 to go.
Will try my best to do at least 10 of those tonight, although I've just looked at the time, so maybe I'll go for 6 instead!!

I've lost all motivation too just now. Maybe because I know there will be another FLW in a couple of weeks, or maybe just because I've sold so many things lately, mostly for only £ or 2, that I'm just sick of all the packing and posting. Really my least favourite part. Particularly with a toddler being so interested and nosey, it doesn't help the process!!

Anywho, must stop procrastinating and get on. I've got a Mystery shopping report to finish as well, but luckily only a quick tick box one so shouldn't take long. Hopefully.

I made £1 today on egg sales, I then spent it on a Thunderball ticket for tonight. I only buy a lottery ticket 3 - 4 times a year. I haven't made that much so far this month but I have two students staying with me for 5 nights starting tomorrow. £15 each per night = £150. This means that I will have to increase my target. £7.50 a day I think.

Thinking of you nicky, I was in a similar situation 4 years ago.

Wooohooo, had a little late night burst of energy - probably due to flicking through the channels just as Notting Hill was starting!! Love this film!

So have managed to get another 15 items scheduled for tomorrow. :j:D:j
Must admit, they were all similar items, so I was doing 'sell similar' and changing the details and pics. So much easier and quicker when there's no faffing with categories. Best hour and a half of an otherwise crappy day.

Welldone to everyone else getting things listed, slowly but surely is still fantastic.
Funny to think we could end up buying from each other!!

Looks like lots of people are having a miserable time at the moment ... Hopefully things will pick up soon and big hugs to everyone that needs them!

Well I have a couple of things to add today.

£40 from my sister for a debt so old I'd fully forgotten about it.
£9.50 from bets (I received an email to remind me I had money in my online account so thought "why not" and placed £1 E/W bets on each race and came out £9.50 up.)

Slowly clawing my way to the target!
