    I know. Was aiming for £100 sales for month but may raise bar now!

    All sent to OP pot!

    Feel my items are just a bit random though! Loft, garage, kids drawers .... where next?? (although still some loft left to exploit)

  • Was supposed to be at work but DD3 throwing up so will swap day off as although my parents are brilliant, I hadnt got anything on that can't wait till tomorrow.

    Will do ad points and chill on settee with DD3 and purring cat.

    Will nip to post office if everything remains calm (last episode only 30 minutes ago!)

  • POsted 4 parcels. DD3 came with me but when got there (in car) went very green, so didnt hang about. Bless her, she swallowed a tooth yesterday as well, so had to write to the tooth fairy and explain, I said to DH that alternatively he could do stifler in american pie the wedding, that particular scene of him eating the produce makes him physical heave everytime he sees it. Such a wuss!

    Updated various spreadsheets, did some ad points but wasnt able to get all of them (very frustrating).

    Very Lazy day. Have pre cooked (sundays batch cooking) lasagne for tea (all ready as was supposed to be at work not being lady of leisure)

    Get well DD3! Lol at the Stifler/Tooth scenario! The poor thing!

    Shame about adpoints, they need to get their act together. Still, free points - I'm not complaining! :D

    Enjoy your lazy day!
  • Thanks Ammonite. Will do, although DD3 hasnt!

    Lady came for blanket box and was really pleased - Phew...

    Glad to hear that one had a happy ending :)

    Have you listed any other items? Think I've found about £60 worth of DVD box sets to list :T
  • Excellent Ed. Are they on yet?

    Found some wedding gifts that were up in loft, still boxed and still unwanted (got married in 95). Am maxed with listings, so everytime something doesnt sell Im relisting something else. If I sell, it doesnt give me another listing spot. Suppose you could make a goal of selling a hundred items.... not sure how long it will take till the kids notice. Put DD3 ice skates on but she will get the money!

    Lady left lovely feedback too.

    Had to put in a NPD though on item sold on 29th, emailed etc but nada. Frustrating as hers was a last minute bid on what would have been a good price.

    Yes boss ;)

    Lots of fixed price listings at the moment, DVD box sets that are £40 new and so on, so can't afford to start them at £0.99!
  • Am quite bossy, thats with having so many children! :naughty:

    Nothing sold on tonights listing but tomorrow is another day... Not quite ready to give up day job!

    Have stripey ginger thing leaning on me, other swirly ginger one snoring and big boy I think will be sleeping on DD2 bed as this week thats his spot.
    DD3 in bed, hopefully the bug has passed as not sure what will do if not, imagine a "Muummmm" phonecall.

    Have ordered some roller skates for DD3 for christmas off ebay. Am also watching some for DD2. Am watching lots of things to be fair with a few naughty bids - see thats why I can't give up my day job(s)

    DH now has works van (definitely not for personal use) so we have his car sat on drive, which is really frustrating as can't sell due to the odd hours I work and our location being so rural, as he wouldnt be able to take the kids to music/ swimming/youthclub/bands/do school run if Im at work but this is only a problem about once every other week. Not sure how will solve though.

    Ditch the second car. Buy one of THESE ;).
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
