    Well done lolly :)

    I need motivation to even start with Facebook/ eBay sales- well no one wants to buy my chest freezer or bunk beds lol! Or the tonnes of make up I have. So what I have got round to doing hasn't been very successful! Might venture up into the loft room for some inspiration!

    Well done Lolly :j:beer::j
    2 SB amazon vouchers today which is great as one of them was ordered on 9th June.
    Still a bit slow for me this month though. I think I will have to do a carboot before the end of the month :(

    Hi everyone,

    Some great totals about already :T

    my total had a little update due to some sales on the bay of e Natterjack88 i'm also aiming to clear £1000 a month off debt - well i've paid over £1000 this month and definitely want to hit this again next few months too :eek: Its hard though when i've sold all the more expensive things

    Anyone got any advice on breaking habits :o Had a rotten day in work (sadly they usually are hence looking for a new job :o) which saw me using the lunch hour to do some retail therapy :eek::eek::eek: Plus i then got home from work and made me a nice-ish tea - Most people probably wouldn't like it as it was an odd combination as i was using stuff instead of throwing it away so frugal ;) but fattening :o So some comfort eating too - Aaarrrghh! And i've so much weight to lose too :o

    So the bad habits are frittering money away on little treats to make me feel better :o And then comfort eating - scoffing a tasty but unhealthy tea - definitely not helping with my weight issues. I know why i do it - to make me feel better after a rubbish day so why can't i stop it ! Best have a mooch about and see if there are any weight loss threads :o

    Thanks Rosie :)

    Aww, Dedicated DFW :(... you have just described me perfectly, lol! I am terrible for buying little treats to cheer myself up, and I definitely have a bit of weight to lose... hence many clothes shopping trips to try and make me feel better about myself :o I can definitely relate to the odd combinations for tea too, lol!

    There are a few weight loss threads on MSE, I love this one... https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/3801635 everyone is really lovely and helpful. Moneyspider has also created this fab thread... https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/3838559 where we aim to get fit, debt free, and sparkle! It's not technically about weight loss... but there are quite a few of us aiming to lose weight on there as well, and again, everyone is lovely and helpful :D Definitely have a look around and join in somewhere, it really does help to have a support network when trying to lose weight :)

    £4.47 profit from an Amazon sale transferred into the bank today, and £14.43 MS profit.
    Had a £5 Amazon voucher in from Swagbucks too yesterday night. Not sure what I'm saving up for on there now but it's nice to see them building up :)
