    Just signed for one last month as getting fuel for the company car which i never collected the points on! Hang head in shame! Purse is filling up with loyalty cards.

    As regards electric, very high, stick 8 lizards that need constant heat and boy it does get high!

    Turns out the OH isn't very happy with me selling underwear to some oddball on the web, even if I do put them on the dog and don't actually wear them myself. No £20 for me then, nevermind.
    And here lies the shady side of debt clearance...

    Seriously, I've only been off here for one morning and I've missed pages and pages. I had to stop reading for a bit when I sniggered quite loudly in the office about one of the "knicker" posts :rotfl:

    Mini Challenge 30/01/2012 - 06/01/2012: declutter yourself
    This weeks mini challenge is to sort through and photograph items for fleabay. Then try to list at least 1 thing a day. You can list up to 100 items a month at 99p for free. Don't forget to price your postage accurately, I normally weigh all my items then add on 50-75p to cover the cost of packaging. This also means that if I weigh an item inaccurately I've got a bit spare just in case.

    Oh no you're actually suggesting I do what I've been saying I'm going to do for, well, at the very least a couple of years to be honest :o [slinks off to start looking at selling info on Fleabay]

    EDIT: Good wishes to your friend Pedro.

    Sorry Eddi what must everyone else reading think of us :eek:
    That bloke has turned properly weird now, so I think I'll keep my knickers to myself :)
    Paid off another little bit to freemans from some fleabay sales that came through but will update total later.

    Ummmmm, Ive only been gone a few hours and it seems everyones airing their dirty laundry so to speak . . . except Mf0u who's not wearing any :eek: and Kerri's selling it all :eek:

    Cam buy a new dryer, it doesnt have to be a hugely expensive one, mine was a £150 job and ive had it for 8 years and never had it go wrong . . . but the £500 dishwasher that I had previously, had a bloomin engineer out every 14 months . . . just long enough for the extended warranties to run out :mad: Really no point throwing good money after bad :(

    Pedro, hope your friend is ok, very scary :(
