I can't give away my secrets!

Really though, it is ornaments. I am not saying anymore until I have successfully trialled it. I don't want egg on my face:)

Hi Banwa

Loving your diary *subscribes* and so impressed with how you're dealing with the debt! :T

Nora

That means you're easily impressed. Which was one the qualities of mine that attracted Mr Banwa:rotfl:

Good Things about today:j

• Quite a lot of interest on one or two of the ebay items
• Posted first ebay parcel at lunchtime
• V MSE lunch - beans on toast
• Lovely leftoever for tea a sort of improvised curry
• Have finally paid the vodafone bill. One debt cleared.:j
• Just logged on to bank and have details of the new 0% credit card on, so can get the two high interest accounts switched tomorrow.

Bad Things about today :exclamati

• One of my ebay items has sold but has no payment. It has been 24 hours now, is this normal? I always pay straightaway.

Have been thinking about this blooming overdraft. The new CC has a limit of £5400 on it. Am thinking about transferring all of that onto Barclaycard so that it is in credit and using Barclaycard for grocery/ petrol spends etc so basically only DDs and SOs come out of joint account until we are out of the overdraft. Am I allowed to trasfer more than I owe onto Barclaycard. And do I have the discipline not to overspend on the Barclaycard? :think:

Woo hoo:T Brilliant, well done Banwa :dance:

Congrats on paying the vodaphone bill!:T

On the ebay payment - have you sent an invoice to the buyer? If so, then just leave it for a couple of days. I found buyers paid up (and left feedback) at completely different rates...but no-one longer than four days (after which, I think, you can start to moan - there's lots of advice on the ebay forum for new sellers).

Thanks for the cheers from the sidelines:D

No invoice sent yet, I am just an impatient b*gger. There is no real hurry anyway; but I would get it relisted if it's not wanted. This ebaying selling stuff is a bit addictive. It might even be more fun than the buying.

Knitting_Nora

It really is more fun that the buying! Of course, then you start to worry that you don't have enough to sell on ebay...but that's another story!

Send the invoice - often acts as a nudge to the shopper, and gets them to pay. And do take a look at the ebay forum for new sellers - I found it a very useful (and impatience-calming) resource.
