    some people are bonkers on ebay think they can get something for nothing. We had a guy at the weekend who was supposed to buy our van travlled 4 hours on the train to get to us saw it decided after a considerable amount of time didn't like it so we dropped him off back at the station we picked him up from for him to travel another 4 hours back. Don't these people think they are wasting there own time aswell as ours!!!!

    Hugest congratulations Froglet - my Facebook news feed has been full the last few days of people getting their degrees, but it's really inspiring to hear that you were a mature student and worked all through it as well, as that's what I'm planning on once my kids are a little bit older.

    And Nat, at least as the lady was a grumpy old cow that saved you feeling you had to be nice to her!
    My other half travelled about 90 miles to someone to collect something we bought from Ebay once, and the lady was so lovely and did offer him a drink etc, and told him of a lovely little cafe around the corner in case he was getting lunch before driving back etc. My OH was the same as you though and just wanted to get in and out, but he did accept a quick drink before heading back (though I think this may have had more to do with the fact that this woman's husband had the football on that OH was moaning he was missing for the journey :D

    £19 Facebook sales today, although will take away £8.02 as that was spent on one of the items, which sold for £17.50 :j Still loving this little Double Your Money mindset! :j
    Few little bits of clutter being collected and paid for tomorrow too :)

    Just going to work out Ebay profits from the bits I've posted off today too.
    And redeemed another £5 amazon voucher from Swagbucks, and done an audit job today - so fabulous money making day here in the Monkeynut house :D:beer:
