  • would be nice if the boss was to say "of course Ben you don't need to come in for the next six months when you are doing this challenge, and we'll still pay all your salary"

  • Evening all.
    Well it's been a mad day sorting out my house, hunting for stuff to eBay for this challenge - it weird to think we'll all be in it together but dotted all round the country.

    I've allocated a biiiiiiiiig box for 'eBay stuff' and been happily dropping bits in it most of the day and my mrs has had to work hard to prevent me from selling anything that isn't nailed down! My house will be empty in a couple of months at this rate! :rotfl: I just haven't got round to writing the listings yet, ah well that's tomorrow eve's job.

    Sitting here next to a big pile of books going on Amazon (maybe in a minute, maybe another thing for tomorrow......) as that seems to be a popular place to sell them and i've not had a lot of luck with books on eBay unless they're unusual in some way.

    Going to count my penny jar now (how sad am I?)
    ;)

    Good luck everyone!
    WELCOME TO MSE AND THE CHALLENGE

    Matched betting is something I was going to get in to this year but I'm not sure if I will. I've read through it a few times but still quite confused. Maybe next week I'll look at it again.

    If hubby still stalls on his input I might have a go myself in a few weeks once UNI has settled down.
    I am finding my time just goes what with this challenge and the comping and the slimming and the exercising and the housework and work and the dog and the kids........ DEAR GOD please make a day last about 28 hours then life would be easier!!:D
