  • His missus - would you be willing to come and collect a pile of stuff from me and sell it, I'd offer you a tidy commission!

    Congrats jakes-mum, hope at least one of those phones gets sold for profit ;) I'd love to upgrade mine but it'll be a while till I've got the cash that isn't being saved for other things.

    Keep going those of you still making payments, it ain't too bad here over the fence!
    DFW - DEBT FREEEEEE!

    I think at least one will be sold as im pretty sure Miss Lily is not ready for a real phone (not that she hasnt asked :rotfl:) the problem is 'himself' is tempting me with a Big Shot :eek::eek: I reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally want one! so so so so so so so so badly (did I happen to mention I want one?)

    Its cruelty thats what it is, you should never tempt a crafter with a new crafty toy when she has means to raise the money :eek::eek: I have debts to pay :eek::eek: . . . . *wanders over to fleabay to see how much a second hand one is . . . . *

  • Hi all, I've been away but back now. I've seriously slipped off the wagon and doubled what I owe :( My pay this month is carp so not much spare to pay anything off. I'm still working on persuading Mr S to not do presents for each other this year. I'm looking at other things to fleabay but my last few items haven't really been very lucrative. Wondering if it's worth trying to find an indoor car boot in the next few weeks....

    Won't be updating my totals as I'm ashamed of it, and want it back down ASAP!

  • Superheavy – wow well done on becoming debt free!!

    Jemma – hope you have a lovely time away, you deserve it xx

    Jakes-mum – I don’t know how you managed to not say anything, that child needs to be disciplined!


    I've just remembered I've actually sold a couple of bits on fb or preloved so I'm going to start keeping that money in a pot, otherwise it just gets frittered away and I don't actually see any of it.

    Hmmm...you live a tad too far away from me. I'm sure you can find an indoor sale near you then you won't have to pay the commission:D

    I know that feeling, don't feel ashamed. Many of us on here have slipped backwards at least once during this challenge :o
