  • Thanks sugarcube, I'll look at the supermarket schemes too.

    As for the pet food, I will certainly look into that, as Mum and I pay £25 for 2x 8kg bags from a place online. Thank you!

    I have already started listing things on ebay and in my local classified ads (they're free too, which helps, as well as being able to specify a price). By the time my house sells, I'll have very little clutter left, which will also help!

    Feeling so much more positive than I was a couple of weeks ago!

    I really appreciate everyone's ideas and advice. :T

    How long before the house sells?

    If it is likely to be a while, is there any mileage in taking a lodger; up to £370 is tax free? They need reasonable notice and one week would be reasonable.
    If you've have not made a mistake, you've made nothing
