Highly bizarrely, unhappy customer has now decided they don't want a refund after all....

Sent out 7 eBay parcels today and had managed to misweigh one, which was then too heavy for 2nd class and has cost me about £3 more to send than I asked payment for. Lessons learned and all that....

On the plus side, the bank has finally updated the "OPs last month" page and we managed to OP £1,009 in February. Really pleased with that. Made up of eBay sales and various stealings of money from the current account under a range of guises (rounding down, tidying and just feeling bl@@dy minded at times). :rotfl::rotfl:

That's Fantastic cat!! :T:T:T
I sold almost £80 worth last month before fees.-hoping to double that this month-there's plenty of [STRIKE]crap[/STRIKE] treasure in the loft to go at.

Very little to report today.

Paid a little OP from PayPal, but going to be a bit of a lean period for a while as don't have much on fleabay at the mo.

Lovely long dog walk in the sun though, with my new neighbour. Then had to hose said dog down, after she had been through some particularly noxious smelling mud!

Blew £47 in the White Company sale.... Bought 3 things each for DS1 & 2 though and think I got quite a good deal.

Tiny op made.

Not much else to report today (though I had lovely lunch out with a mate)!

Expensive (lovely) lunch with DH. Feel v guilty.....

Very well done on the op, but keep out of the shops! They are soo clever at making us want stuff we never thought about before......

catshark88

Bad shop, naughty shop....:-)

Annoyed with Waitrose (& myself) though. I used their car park, so needed to spend £5. I picked up some guacamole and soured cream, some fajitas, a Mother's Day card and 2 of their own brand microwave rices. Almost £13!!!!

Next time I'm parking in Aldi and risking their stupid made up fines....
