    Morning All

    Congrats to those who have managed a B purchase - haven't even tried but will pop in to the local store on my way to work.

    Quick Q to all you ebayers though please. I have made my first sale. However, there is no sign of payment from the buyer. Am I obliged to chase him/her for payment, or do I just relist it after a given time? I am not stressed as it went for less than I would have hoped!! Thanks in advance, and good luck at Bs.

    :)

    Firstly send them an invoice as a 'reminder'. After 4 days you can open a non-paying case in the resolution centre. The buyer then has a further 4 days to pay and if so the case will be closed. If they don't pay then you can close the case yourself and you will receive a refund of your selling fees. HTH

    Good morning everyone, another cold day everywhere, keep safe.

    Not bothering with the Boots sale, have enough from A's glitches in the summer, bayliss & harding from T's and Body Shop.

    If I was in a large town, with a large Boots, would go, but a small town will only have cosmetics/toiletries.

    All bar one item I was interested in online, has sold out.

    Plus, just paid over £500 for a full car service, new wing mirror that was vandalised (lovely of them) and 2 new tyres.

    Times like this that I just hate working where I do, costs so much just to get to work.

    Have a good day everyone

    Morning all, haven't popped in for a few days, am losing my mojo a bit at the minute (always happens in January and it's fine, especially while the weather's so horrid)!

    I'm presuming you've all taken advantage of the blinkbox clubcard points offer on grabbit, £40 of restaurant rewards for £4.48 spend can't be bad (less cashback).

    For those who are staying in keeping warm, can I recommend the new Father Brown series on BBC1 at 2.10pm every day - they're brilliant and I have absolutely no idea why they are being shown at that time, they are right up there with the best Sunday night programmes. Well worth a watch and also available on the iplayer.

    Hope all have a good day, whatever you are doing. Lutz.x
    Hope is not a strategy.
