    Not such a great week for me this week :rolleyes:

    Should be better this week as I have 3 ebay auctions ending with bids and watchers :j

    If you need inspiration for ebay have a look at this great thread that I stumbled across today. Its up for post of the month and well worth a read :T

  • A reasonable week on Ebay so able to add over £40 to my total taking me over my original Bronze target. Am delighted with this. Have noticed that interest will count so plan to put future proceeds into a savings account I am in the process of opening (via Rpoints) - I am now saving to upgrade my ancient pc and broken printer.

    Thanks to WOA for another great newsletter
  • My Cadburys chunk mug is my only hope on e-bay and has a huuuuge starting bid of £0.99! There are 5 people watching so I am hoping they are all collectors and that in 2 hours time I can report a lovely amount that is more than £0.99 to add to my total..!

  • Firstly a HUGE congrats to Flowersofscotland :T Well done on the bronze already!! Nice feeling isn't it?!! :beer:

    My total isn't rising rapidly. Have had a major binge on freecycle this weekend. Ex finally cleared his stuff out the garage so have been getting rid of all the junk he left behind. Most of it just wasn't worth selling on ebay so have passed along to those who dont think its junk!! Neighbours wondered what on earth was going on when I've had a visitor every half hour or so!!

    I've got a couple of bits to sell though, 3 broken car stereos, a broken welder and some welding wire!!! thats really gonna boost my total!!!! :rotfl:
    I've re gained my garage though so I'm not gonna complain. Its so nice being able to walk from the front to the back rather than needing climbing gear!!!

    Anyways, I digress. I'm off to PM WOA with my weekly total and extras.

    Have a great week guys. Half term now so wont be about much me thinks, although they haven't been to school since Weds cos of the snow!! Lightweight teachers!!! :rolleyes:

    A much slower week for me this week. just £20 to add today from a sale of some snowchains to a friend.

    Am hoping that ebay will pick up again next week.

    Good luck everyone!

  • my total will be up by £50 by next weekend (Paypal has got to the magic figure again)

    the total hasn't increased since last week

    and now my laptop is switching itself off, for some reason, so will be on here very rarely until the problem can be sorted

  • well done everyone :D

    This week will be better as I just sold some stuff on ebay so will be adding that onto my total after I have mailed out the items so I know what the profit is.

    Keep the good work up everyone .

    Mine does this too, it's an over heating issue with laptops. Hope you get it sorted without too much expense!
