    Thanks guys, hopefully some sales will come though.

    I've done a bit more listing today, so now have done

    17/150 for me, 13/150 for DH

    Another £17 withdrawn from Paypal today to add to my total so that's

    £60/£400 = £340 to go

    My car's back in the garage tomorrow, so hopefully that's not a big bill on the way. _pale_

    Well I've got my car back, and another £85 bill :cry: So that's even more to find now this month.

    I did get another 11 items on ebay today and sold a book so have another £4 to add.

    28/150 for me, 17/150 for DH

    £64/£485 = £421 to go

  • :( to the car. Is it sorted now?

    Hope your ok? x
  • Hey everyone,

    Oh jwil it never rains but it pours doesn't it? I feel the same with the extra things i have to spend on this month - ok some of it is nice things like holiday spends but all of it is this month and nothing can be put off until next month / later in the year. It is really hard.

    Are you feeling any better now ? I have totally struggled with being ill all week - really disappointed too as i've missed all these days of free listing :( I've got about 10 items to list but they are all in categories where they are saying i've hit my limit :mad: i really need the time, energy / health to find stuff to get rid of so i can pay these bills this month - and i would have really liked to have paid something off the debt too of course but with all these extra outgoings i cannot see how this will be possible.

    hope that is it on the car bill for you hon x

    Your carboot sales and bay of e & amz*nia sales all seem to be going well for you this month :T:T:T
    Rightio work beckons so i'd better get going :( Hope you are enjoying your break from work jwil xx

    Hi everyone else too - p&f if you are reading but not posting hope all is well with you hon x

    Hope you are feeling better DDFW.

    I don't know where this week has gone. I haven't really achieved much. We did have a nice day out yesterday though.

    Done a bit more listing today, it's so tiresome. DH is having a bit of a sort out though, so there's quite a bit heading out :T

  • Ouch on more car repairs. I know the feeling only too well :mad: My guy at the garage told me it was time to get rid of ours because of the cost some people just don't understand that can't afford another one means just that. In the end the problem was sorted at dealer garage for £170 now goes like a dream :T

    Well the good news on my front is the Bay of E item we thought was worthless and put it on for less than £5 isn't. With just over a day to go and 11 watchers still is now at the dizzying heights of £103 :j:j .

    We have others to sell as well, even OH is impressed, he who thought it a waste of time :D

    Have a good weekend and may all your sales be good ones

    Hi everyone,

    my car has to go in on Wed for its MOT and I know the brakes need seeing to - they have started binding in the last couple of weeks so I have been using OH car.

    How is the sickness Jwil?

    I have found a lot of old horsey gear that is a bit (actually a lot) mouldy so going to clean it all up and ebay it this week.

    My horse has to go to a clinic this week to be sedated and have her teeth seen too so going to be an expensive week for me.

    But, dont know if I mentioned me and DS are still going away for a week the following week - cant wait.

    Have a good weekend everyone and happy ebaying :D
