Time to get organised and get on with it!

Hi jwil and everyone

jwil it certainly sounds like you're getting plenty done today - i like the way you sneaked in your confession of buying more kindle books too :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: - but its all from your voucher balance and i know you like reading as much as me so understand buying new books too

peaceandfreedom - i echo what jwil said - hope you're ok and good luck to your hubby with the job search

jwil do you still list on eb*y when its higher than 99p start and not free listing ? x

jwil

Yes, it was all vouchers so freebies really

DDFW - yes I do. I think the market gets flooded on free listing days so you are more likely to get a better price when there's not one on. I usually pay for a listing once, and then use the free listing days to relist.

Well I feel like I've achieved something today :T

I've finally sorted through the old paperwork and shredded what is no longer required, and filed the rest away. I've also sorted through all of my proof of posting and got rid of anything older than 6 months, and have found a box that I can store them all in rather than having them scattered in various drawers.

I seem to have decluttered a breadmaker It's been dying for a long time, and the brick that appeared out of it was not really useable. It now won't switch on. Oh well. I would like to replace it, but there's no real hurry.

I've got sausage casserole in the oven using reduced sausages, and I've made some cheese and bacon turnovers from some leftover pastry, bacon and cheese :T They will do me for some lunches and will freeze too.

I've scrubbed out the microwave which was desperately required and started cleaning the kitchen. Washing's all done too.

I've also pulled out all of my scraps of paper with recipes on them and found a ring bound notebook which I've copied them all into. Much neater and tider than lots of scraps of paper.

DH has come home early for once and so has gone out on the afternoon dog walk :T

A good day all in all

Hi jwil - you've done loads :j:j:j

Does this mean you're using the new filing cabinet then? :T:T:T

With your breadmaker - have you thought about looking on amaz*n? I believe there's some really good ones on there - But as you say its good its not something that urgently needs replacing :cool:

Well done on your cooking too :T - sticking to my meal plan i too have a casserole on the go

I do the same with recipes too - well i use a ringbound folder and punch pockets - so much easier like you say

Lovely to hear you've had a good day

Thanks for the advice on eb*y - i'll list some things over the weekend hopefully - i;ve got quite a stash of stuff but some of it is from the stuff that allows only limited listings :undecided

Yes, I am finally using the filing cabinet :j:j:j

I probably will look on amazon for the breadmaker, I can save my vouchers for it then and it will be free!

Good luck with your ebay listings

jwil

I've got a few sales on ebay going out this evening, so that will be a few more things gone soon!

retiredandskint

Pops out of lurkdom to say hi and hope everyone is ok. Still doing well on those Eb*y and Am*zon sales JWIL, one day you'll be clutter-free :T

I'm not doing too bad on sales either, not in your league of course, but coming up to the £30 mark and still some to go. I even managed to sell one thing that's been listed so many times that I said to OH if it doesn't sell this time then off to the charity shop it goes.

Have a good weekend and don't work too hard.

jwil

Hey retired, nice to see you! Well done on your sales, it all counts! It's always great when something sells after relisting loads.

I've had a few items sell tonight, some of which have been relisted a number of times, so I'm happy

Have a good weekend!

Hi jwil

Just a quick piece of advice please?

I've made my first ever sale on amaz*n :j Do i just need to package suitably and enclose the packing slip or are there any other rules in case i've missed something

Woo hoo! Well done! :j I don't ever print off the packing slip, just post it as normal. You need to make sure you mark it as sent and post within two working days. You won't get your money until you mark it as sent.

I think for your first payment you have to wait for amazon to disburse it to your account (2 weeks I think), but in future, you can request the payments once every 24 hrs.
