Have been thinking some more about next years plans, a new thing I want to try is to either list all the freebies I get or keep tham all and make a big hamper with them (depending on expiry dates). I tend to get at least one thing a week I reckon, some of them are trial produts to test for surveys, some are freebies I send off for from the freebie board / facebook likes etc, some could be competition wins (here's hoping ), but all in all I think it does add up to quite a lot of stuff and would be interesting to track it

Sold a bin on ebay for £2

So after falling asleep at stupid o'clock (probably somewhee around 3am) ds woke me at 6 this morning to tell me the dog was snoring :cool: Having already taken it for a quick walk (very quick, just long enough for him to go to the loo), I'm now back in bed but far too awake to have any chance of getting back to sleep, boo!!

So, today ... several bits finishing on ebay today, up to a fiver so far, not expecting anything more really, they are all bits that have been relisted or were going to the car boot sale anyway, so even a fiver is good :T

Mum and Dad are coming round at about 10.30 this morning to collect the dog and to see ds's halloween show he's been practicing Other than that it will be a pottering indoors kinda sunday, its wet and windy outside and tomorrows back to school, so ideal for a lazy sunday in the warm, oh, and I still haven't been tempted to put the heating on yet

Woohoo, just sold a bin for £3.99 :j :j Off to the holiday pot

benbenandme

Woohoo, the ebay items have finished on £17.40 :j :j There are 3 more to finish, but two of them don't even have any watchers, one has a bid of 99p, so will add that on later Really happy with this, 7 parcels to wrap up and post tomorrow, but it is all stuff that had been listed before and not sold

benbenandme

And that means I'm a third of the way there now :j :j

benbenandme

Two items didn't sell, last one went for a pound, so will add that now, very happy with todays haul and it also means I get rid of one box of stuff from behind the sofa

Just waiting for one more ebayer to pay, the rest are all parcelled up and ready to go tomorrow

Bags and p.e. kits are ready for the morning, ds is having dinner right now, then hoping for an early night for him what with it being dark nice and early tonight

Yes our little one woke at 5.45 am this morning as the clocks went back it was earlier than expected so we tricked him too and he was in bed by 5.30pm this evening, been asleep for over an hour now. Am I a horrible mummy to put him to bed at 5.30 pm :eek::eek::eek::eek:
