Yay! Another book sold on Amazon... only for £3 after fees and postage though.
I feel a bit mad saying this, but actually felt happier about a new eBay feedback saying that her son is very happy with the item... and another saying that my an old toy had found a good home.
Guess that's what I like about eBay (despite having the 4th non-payment dispute this month).November £10 per day challenge: £265.93/£300

Could have kicked myself today as I missed out on a £5 discount
. Bought a Dorothy Perkins dress in BHS for £30, but as I was walking out I noticed that they had an offer on where you get a £5 gift voucher when you spend £25 on a gift card - so I could have bought the gift card, then spent that and the voucher on the dress making it £25.
I guess I could return the dress and then buy it again once I'd bought a gift card, but I doubt I will as it would cost me petrol and parking to go back, and I wouldn't be able to get back until next week... and I really want to start wearing the dress.
I did get £3 LVs from Pinecone today though0 -
Evening everyone
Well i have had a nice easy day today - had a letter to type up to appeal my ESA decision which i did earlier and apart from that i have just been pottering about today. did a few wee swaggers points things, played free bingo, joined a few fishy forums for networking and general chat, and a few wee games on woohoo. I am exhausted after the 'nonsense' but hopefully that will be an end of it - we posted a very clear but factual msg on our forum about what had been happening and hey presto all the posts on the other forum attacking OH have been removed and the threats have stopped (fingers crossed it stays that way)
Thank goodness i can now start to focus on the whole money making thing again now :beer:
I have sold 26 items on ebay and will be posting the 21 that have been paid for tomorrow - i am much too tired to start counting it all exactly so will add £125 of an estimate for that.
I also got a £20 bonus on jpj and won £1.24 on their yesterday which i don't think i added yet
Right am off for a wee sleepsie before i start typing with my nose!
Hope everyone is well and money pots are getting fat xxxDebt at Aug 2010 (LBM) £21,908.86, Debt Freeeeee Date 4th Nov 2013 :j:j:j Massive Thanks to the £10 per day thread :A Next goals:Savings £1203.16/£10,000******Mortgage to Zero: £52,579.46 to go

Yehhhh just cashed out £43.83 from TCB, which i was expecting till end of month, decided to give step son our wii for xmas as we dont use it so saved there also. Only left to buy for parents and in laws and 1 nephew and hubby, so £100 should cover all that!!
Also managed to have a NSD today, and stop husband buying a new computer system for £500:eek: .
Also decided going to decorate nursery next week, paint, border and blind, budgeted £50 so here hoping :j, Thanks all for advice and support i have got a moses basket , and have managed to find myself a cotbed incl matress on ebay for £105 from online shop so is new also, actually works out cheaper than second hand cott and new matress - go figure??
Had to go for cot bed cause then it can be used for 5 years, save me spending more money :rotfl:
Ok ramble over off to check survey sites, one of them should be paying out soon - surely!!Make £0/£100 Feb 2016 (Late starter)
New Year resolution get bum into gear and get debt free :cool:0 -
Glad you got that whole thing sorted out Fairy - that would have sent my stress levels (and anger levels) through the roof!
I am definitely on a roll of bad luck! After having to make a 13.50 refund on ebay yesterday, this evening I come in to see that my dress that was bidded up to 48.00 is now back down to 8.50 :eek:
Bidders have been playing silly *uggers basically. One retracted a bid this morning stating she had entered the wrong amount of 50.00 - which seems daft as the other bid was 42 and she did not re-enter the correct amount later so I think it is a case of changing her mind.
Then my highest bidder messaged me to say she wants to cancel her bid (looks like she may have bidded on and bought another dress!). As mad as it makes me I can't really do anything but cancel as want to avoid the buyer messing about and going down the item not arrived or not as described route. So now my price has plummeted!
I do have 23 watchers and 2 days to go but am worried all this price yo yo ing and bid retraction / cancellation will look odd to other buyers. Will be happy if I get around 35.00 for it as that is what it cost me to begin with.
I have been ebaying for a while and have never known such a bid palava and all on the same item. I give up!!
Tired out and cannot be bothered listing today. I do have 1.73 to add to total from quidco cashback. Tomorrow is another day...........surely no more ebay drama will unfold?!?
ps. Also saved 1.20 in car parking. Had a dentist appointment and expected to pay, but it is was free after 3pm.0
