Enjoying the journey to becoming debt free - paying back the credit cards

fedupandskint

great stuff - 2 items sold on ebay both unused fitness games. One went for more than expected and the other went for the minimum however better to go rather than sit unused in the cupboards

No totals yet for debt repayment as need to see how much actual postage will cost and I've totted up the fees so far to rake out of any money made.

Might make a start on some more now

I did a combination of car boots, auction houses, "converter type places" as well as E-bay.

Have you thought of buying from car boots and charity shops - just invest a few pennies and see if you can trade them on and make a bit of profit.

There's a good market for vintage clothing, bags and accessories. I think you would be good at that.

Hope you feel better soon.

Thanks so do I as I feel absolutely rotten at the moment.

Might get in touch with a shop close by for some furniture otherwise that's going on ebay too. In fact should really list one item tomorrow while its free listing weekend and see how that goes.

Once all my stuff goes then that's something I might consider as I was pretty good at selling things a few years ago which was an new discovered talent for me!

Have listed 3 more items on fleabay and that's about all I can be bothered to do at the moment. Will see if I feel up to doing a few more later on this evening

Have just spendthe last hour or so listing some more items - now have 16 on there with more to go on tomorrow.

Feel better for sitting down and not doing anything - let's see how I feel tomorrow and if I feel better when I do something or if its just when I sit down and do nothing at all

Right then that's quite enough on ebay for one night with 19 items on there now.

A few more to get on tomorrow - some more photos to take and load up then see how that lot get on first and then maybe wait for the next free listing weekend for some things.

A very quiet day tomorrow, not going anywhere apart from taking the dog for a walk,

Another 3 big items listed on fleabay - that really is quite enough now. will see how the 22 items get on and if they sell or not before anymore go on there.

Not a no spend day today as originally planned. Did a dash up to the shop to get some snacky food in as was really craving some chocolate for some reason. Then decided to get some present shopping done for birthday presents and another christmas present ordered before it sold out. Bit strange spending all that on a sunday as most are a no spend day for me. Having said that, I'd rather get some bought now rather than dash around later and it wasn't too much of a spend as used the am*z*n survey voucher for around half of it to soften the amount down slightly.

As all the ebay listing is done for now, I'll have a little look for a birthday cake recipe to bake next weekend by which time I should be feeling a huge amount better than now as I am not up to doing much at all

No wonder I feel so rubbish, turns out it is almost the flu - just not quite the real thing. Lots of rest prescribed so its another week off.

Haven't done a thing today as really not up to anything.

Happily though 4/5 items have sold today on ebay meaning the car service and MOT total is started and one third of the way there. Also posted phone off too and waiting for the check to arrive this week to go into cc repayment fund

fedupandskint

Totted up money so far from sales and its halfway there now for cost of MOT and service.

Nice tea from the freezer tonight of HM pasta sauce with pasta (of course!) and veg, pud and hot chocolate.

Just need to find some more packaging materials now ready for posting the sales tomorrow. Then its time for the next lot finish and hopefully I should have enough to arrange the car service and some cc repayments.

Not feeling that great so it will an early night here and reading my book I'm enjoying greatly. It's one I've had on the side for years unread and now I'm reading I'm enjoying it a great deal - lots of detail that takes you to that point in American history of the 1870's - 'age of innocence' and a surprisingly easy read. Think I'll try and read quite a bit tomorrow instead of channel hoping all day trying to find something to watch!

Just realised I've reached my 1% target of £162. Next target is 2% of £324. Let's see how the sales carry on towards this target.

Enjoying the bake off masterclass this evening - looks yummy and inviting to bake!

Blimey, clearly not that much better today after a walk to the PO to post ebay sales, then buy some more parcel stuff from the shop left me feeling very wiped out by the time I got back home. Time for quite a rest I think and then parcel up the rest of the sales ready to post tomorrow

Not a no spend day today but a fairly low spend day overall. Time to update the postage spends in my notebook now and see the real amount made after fees and costs have been taken out

fedupandskint

Not much to report tonight apart from feeling prerty bleurrgh so its an early night reafing and hope to pick up at some point.

Just some ebay posting to do tomorrow and thats it considering it nearly wiped me out today will see if I am any better tomorrow
