grrr - hoping that Ebay picks up a little as at the moment not many items of mine are selling. A few things I'd need to relist I think or redo so they seem more attractive!!
FDF - I do hope you feel better soon.

Had a good week challenge wise - I'm up to £588.26 :j
This week I've had £4.67 from Amazon, £4.09 from Ebay, £53.62 from Mystery Shopping and £2 from selling a book through work - so weekly total is £64.38 and I'm still ahead of target :j :j
I've got something ending today on ebay (from a 10 day listing) which is on £3.20 and I put something else on on Friday night which is currently on 80p (just some vouchers I couldn't use so any money above fees is profit as they'd of gone in the recycling overwise as I'm not shopping in tescos atm due to roadworks near our local store making it a nightmare to get in and out).
I've got another book that someone at work wants to buy on Wednesday so there will be a bit more then. I've decided to put some of my items I've got for ebay on tonight on a 10 day so they are on there over Easter weekend, as some of them are slightly obsecure I think they might be things people who want them have a favourite search email alert thing set up for anyway - well we'll see - I'm prepared to gamble a few lots of 30p.
Hope everyone else has a good week money making :jInitial Mortgage January 2024 - £160,000

still feeling yuk!!
been to work today but looking forward to putting my feet up and having an early night!!
welcome aboard woodyrocks! interest is ok to include provided it comes from an account that is purely for the challenge (correct me if Im wrong guys!) I would probably say to start your running total from the day you begin the challenge but Im happy to go with what anybody else thinks, the rest of us started counting from the day we embarked on the olympic challenge! good luck!
your signature is a bit like how I feel, although I have sorted out my debt but my dream is exactly yours to have my own home by the time Im 30 (although that date comes approx 4 months before yours!!!) your deposit dare I say is actually far healthier than mine!!finally debt free and want to keep it that way!!0 -
Thanks for the welcome! Hope an easy night rights all your ails Hun x Its nice to have someone on the same pathDEBT FREE AND LOVING LIFE0

Well done to everyone! :T
I have had a very slow couple of weeks. Can only put £20 on my total as that's all the extra money I've brought in :cry smilie:.
Feeling very depressed about this as I was doing so well before. Still looking for a part time job, got an interview at the local Somerfield tomorrow (back to being a checkout chick :sigh:) so maybe next month I'll be able to get my total up!DFW Nerd no 239.....Last Personal Debt paid off Nov 2012!
