Time to get organised and get on with it!

Hey everyone,

Jwil i don,t think i replied to you before and lam too i think it was ? Anyways yep i always have things with me to do on the train though it sometimes depends on if i can get a seat as to what gets done. But yes i use the time although its all a bit bitty ie travelling to station, waiting at platform, catch train, get off train wait at platform get next train - rather than a nice stretch of time altogether if that makes sense?

Lam i think you mentioned vitamins / supplements - i agree these could be a really good idea but i am just so skint all the time i cannot add anything to my outgoings. If it was guaranteed to make me feel better then i would spend the money. The vitamins i take now as i was specifically diagnosed as needing them have made no difference to how i feel.

Peaceandfreedom hope you,re well x

Morning everyone. Payday today, hurrah!

Well, the job lot that DH sold was collected, so that's several boxes of stuff gone now, yay :T :T

DedicatedDFW

Woohoo! jwil several boxes going is fab! Now hopefully, and of course if they go for the price you want then maybe mr jwil might sell some more job lots

And woo! for payday too :T

i am currently trawling around seeing where i can expect to get some money in from Did i say ? As i'm now officially on catch-up duty with my target i'm aiming to pay off a huge £1500 in june :eek::eek::eek: - so i have *alot* of extra money to make - still it is a target and if i break it down a bit it won't seem so bad (i hope!)

Hope you are all well and that you all have a good day. Weekend for me after todays shift - and it can't come soon enough - 7 hours is going to feel like a week

Aw thanks Lam I am still on restricted listings on the bay of e - very annoying really but nothing i can do - just awaiting some good feedback but not everyone does feedback so it might be a bit slow going. I should have a bit of time to myself next weekend when i can hopefully just loads of lovely things that people will buy straight away Positive thinking and all that :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Good Luck with your sales too hon

And goodo for it being payday for you too

This was a one-off really as it was a job lot of stuff that we couldn't shift. I expect there will be another one in the future, but hopefully not quite as much. It went for way more than expected though so very happy :j

That is one hell of a target for next month, good luck! I'll probably try for £500. Not sure I'll get much time for listing this weekend, but will see how things go. I am going to get that box of stuff on today though.

Have a good day

Hope you get some listing done Lam. I don't live in a huge house - just normal size. However, there are huge amounts of clutter - stuff piled everywhere, so hence I have lots to clear. I dream of a clear clutter free house which is nicely decorated

That's so frustrating about the listings. Hope you get some lovely feedback soon as well.

Well I've listed the box of stuff I wanted to get on :T That's another 47 listings added to my total. I've not quite made the 200, but not far off!

I'll have a think about my plans for next month too.

I've sold 2 items today so a huge £3 to add to my total.

I've also had a message from the person I refunded the other day to say the item has turned up and they are going to repay :T :T :T It's nice to have a lovely ebayer for once.

Aw thats good jwil about the parcel

And well done on all those listings :T i've set myself a big target of listings for june too which i thought might be a tad ambitious but you make it look really achievable

I did think about having another bay of e account but i have no idea how that even works ?? I know some people have multiple ones so they can take advantage of FLW etc. but i've no idea how it even works - oh well - lets hope i get some good feedback off my recent sales

Well done on the sales = and you have paid a huge amount off your debt this year :j:j

Did you decide what to do about the mortgage payments hon ? Just asking as i'm in the same position now x

It's achievable for me as I have a lot of similar items to sell. If all of them needed to be in different categories, it would take a lot longer.

I think you just open another account if you want one on ebay. I don't bother, though DH has one as well, so I list his stuff on there, and mine and most of the house stuff on mine. If you are restricted on one though, it's likely they will restrict any other one as well, but you are perfectly entitled to have more than one, unless you've been suspended.

With our mortgage payments, we decided to take the lower payment and have the extra cash. It's needed more at the moment. I'm going to give them a call and see if I can get some details to do an electronic transfer though so if I've got a spare £1 or two, I can make a small overpayment. I'd prefer to be overpaying, but once the debt is gone I can do that then. I'll be in a better financial position having less debt than having less mortgage right now.
