Thank you *Ro*I have been lurking away on the newborn thread, (as I have the other pregnancy threads too, not posting very much) so I've had lots of help already from you guys over there. I shall pop over and say Hi at some point.

Tonight's plan:
List one item on ebay - it is a duplicate of something I sold a few weeks ago that I found the other day - didn't realise I had it (and I wonder why I'm in debt :rolleyes:) The other item sold very well, but I'm not expecting this to go for so much, but every ££ helps.
Drop off an ebay sale on the way home - that's a bulky item so pleased it will be gone.
Pork stir-fry for dinner - whoopsied pork and veg so that will be very frugal indeed.
Some more ebay packing - a few people have paid up today so will get those ready to post tomorrow. It would be nice if the person who bought the very bulky item paid as well so I could get that posted tomorrow too.
Flick through some magazines so they can be decluttered."Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0 -

Not yet, something else to add to my to do list!"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0 -
:mad: the flaming ebay person was not home when I turned up despite arranging this yesterday :mad:
This is why I don't offer collections on my items, it's such a pain!"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0 -
Lovely new diary
Like everyone else, very excited about your baby and hearing how you are all getting on.
I can't believe you are still listing on Ebay but you seem to take it all in your stride.

How rude! I only offered a collection once. Never again. I had an idiot buyer that seemed to think I should sit at home for two days waiting for him to turn up whenever he could fit it around his work.Mortgage, draw down Sept 2014: £222,000

Well they did turn up later and pick up so all is well, however, I don't like offering collection and avoid it wherever possible. I've had nothing but trouble with it - the same if I offer stuff on Freecycle - so I don't bother with that any more."Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do".
