    Thanks for so many welcome back's. I'd forgotten how much I like this thread, everyone is so positive.

    Hi Shrimpy, glad to see a threadie face - sometimes I feel like I'm the only one banging on about the money on the UI thread - but then again most other people have their babies now so have much more important things to be focussed on.

    Aww, I think you may have missed the boat with the Mccains stuff. :( The site's been down 'for maintainance' since late last night... we are thinking that it may be all over - it really was too good to be true!

    Welcome back, BTW! :)

    What was it? Kicking myself that I dallied but still curious at what I missed.
    I didnt sign up for sept as on holiday at the start of the month.

    But ebay sales are currently at £2,700 for the month. Gym membership I cancelled in June kicked in saving £120. Used train vouchers to save £120 on ticket and hotel points to save £250 on a hotel. £203 tax refund. £200 from edf for overpaying gas- so £3590 so far in September.

    I am still aiming for £100 a day in September and will go for the same in October so £3100 eeek

    What on earth do you sell on ebay to make £2700 a month?! Is this a second business buy and resale type thing? I'd love to hear a bit more about what you do here if you don't mind.

    I'd like to go for £10 this month please!

    In order to complete my 1 debt vs 100 days im about £250 short so hopefully I can use any extra money to sort out the shortfall!

    I have a few things from my wedding that I really need to get on ebay and with my OH away this month I may just get the chance to get down to it!

    Good Luck to Everyone!:D
