Will be a lot less money and totally unreliable but hey I need to do what's right for me. We will still be on target to pay of debts to CCCS in 2014 so although I would like to pay off debts sooner I have to go back whilst the opportunities are still there for me.
So I am ebaying like mad now because I need to have several months wages as a back up until the work trickles in. Roll on car boot season so I can do some more wheeling and dealing!
Well done Dilli and elle, hope everyone else is ok to.
Skint are you ok can you inbox me hun?? xx
well done th on doing whats right for you some things are more important than money and really 2 yrs aint that long .i dont think the car boot season stops in scotland they just move indoors lol
i'm trying to get fit and find that elusive second job always hated the idea of it but to be honest i will feel better if i can get rid of debt need to join you in the ebay frenzy will we set a target how many do you put on a week and do you treat it like a job as in these 2 hrs are ebay hours ect let me know .skint is on facebook i'll pm her if you want to let her know you want to hear from herSo finally debt free and it feels amazing however continuing here to stay debt free.Next declutter house and body and finally swim under that waterfall x0 -
Hi elly, need to get fit too but working 6 days a week is carp. Well I want to aim for 10 items a day about 70 items a week. I do treat it like a 2nd job so 2 hours a day photographing & listing & then packing. Sometimes if doing nowt at the weekend then I put a film on and do some then.
Anyone want to join me in trying to list 70 items a week lol?

Tryinghard - congrats on your decision - you have inspired me as I want to take the plunge and go part time later on this year. I don't have all the funds yet but, I can't wait to make the leap! Best of luck on the ebaying too!
Elly - still saving money, although I am cross with myself I dropped £5 this morning in my building, I am sure that it has bought someone a coffee but none the less quite hacked off as I had it in my hand and I should have put it somewhere safer! :mad:
Change wise, I am going to wait until my tin runneth over a bit more!
In general: quarterly plan is a lot more time consuming than I first thought I am still working through April. Still have marketing plan and business plan complete - but on the brightside I have finished up most a client project, and hope to finish two more client projects by the end of the night. Another busy week, but a satisfying one!)
Other than that older dribblers I have a request in the 'ville, I will probably have a few more this week xoxo10K 2010 challenge £3202.59/£10000

Hi everyone, been MIA too for a few weeks but life is getting back on track after some family stuff we had to deal with! have updated my sig and have got a guaranteed £400 to add this month. Also busted the change pot open and managed to convert it to $103 for florida and get a few bits and bobs for tea and get OH a couple of beers for a treat (I had chocolate, damned massive £1 easter eggs!) Not much I know but it was all money that hasn't been missed!
Got a few things in the pipeline too and am seriously thinking about getting a job a couple of nights a week in the local pizza shop, free pizza and easy money... YES PLEASE!0 -
Glad things are getting back on track for you lilmissdebauched. I love Pizza a bit too much so that would be a dangerous job for me.
For older dribblers got a ville request (again) I am a demanding soul10K 2010 challenge £3202.59/£10000
