100 items!!!!! I was beside myself with excitement when I had only six:p

The spa outing sounds just fantastic - hope the swimsuit does eventually arrive though.....

I have never heard of the Boots evaluation suite sale - just did a quick google though. Sounds like a great bargain for a tenner:T

Ooops, just seen the time so best dash to get my chores all done and dusted.

Catch up soon HDK X

HelenDaveKids

Thanks Np was very relaxing ... not! it was very chatty and winey.

Have also been cracking on with chores and finally sat down.
Batch cooked loads as well, all now freezing.

About 10 watchers now...

Looks like you cant enrol on the boots site which is a real shame as would be a brilliant freebie route!

Hi helendavekids :wave: I have seen you around the mfw boards for a while and have only just caught up and read the whole of your diary. You have been fantastic at selling on ebay, I am inspired to copy next year and finally clear my house out!

Anyway, will try and pop in and catch up regularly

HelenDaveKids

Thanks newgirly, careful though... its strangely addictive!! Getting to the stage were I eye everything up, OH gets nervous now if i go in his garage!

Hi HDK
My OH also gets nervous when I start with "We don't use that ... do we?" But overall I've never regretted anything I'd sold on ebay/preloved/car boot so clearly the right thing to do.

Sounds like a lovely weekend! I think I may make a chalet break part of our Xmas traditions in the next few years. I always worry about booking things like that in case it snows though!


The boots evaluation suite sale sounds AMAZING! Was that just at a regular Boots?

Well done for your MASSIVE eBay efforts! Good luck with your sales. I have finished for this year now, didn't manage to get the last few bits listed but I will do it at some point next year. Just like MRN I have never been sorry to sell anything on eBay!

I think the boots thing is where they test products rather than an outlet. Apparently they sell off at intervals and we just fell lucky. Everything was new and sealed.
Unfortunately cant seem to register to join..... i think Id like to do an anti wrinkle trial...

3 items with bids, at least once saturday is here then thats it for the month, instead of the constant cant help self watching the watchers!!
I want to clear out all ther clothes in the attic next month, esp those items that are about 4 sizes to small and if Im honest with myself, it aint ever going to fit.

Saw someone on corridor today who Id been telling at a meeting about my ebay fettish (along with some others), who came rushing up to tell me that shes got something on ebay (first time) and already up to £50 and was planning on now clearing out big style as never realised. Am I starting a mini revolution at work?

Your manager must be delighted that whilst at work, you have full focus only on work related matters;)

Although I do try and spread the joy at my work. Today I gave my colleague a lesson on Topcashback:D

I suspect she just gives up! (after rolling her eyes)

My house renovation project was known throughout the whole trust, had all sorts of random people asking me did i still love my red door and shower valve. The sad thing is at any one moment I could produce a photo of said door or valve but none of my children! (unless they were in front of door when taking pics).

My MSE is now on a similar level. Think I may be OCD.
