    Been busy today helping Mr tc. :)
    Got one sale to sort out later
    I need to do a print out later as I didn't save 10% at @sd@ on Saturday. So they are giving me a voucher for... 78pence. Better in my pocket than theirs! :)
    Draught excluders were delivered to relevant places at weekend. :)
    I am expecting £20 too as a couple of people insist they will pay for theirs. :) I won't count it until I actually have it though-might be next month. :)

    I still have some books I need to read. Must get on with that this month.

    Hi TC,

    Sorry i didn't realise you don't have a regular income now - are you job hunting too?

    It looks like you're doing well with your monthly targets :)

    Hi DDFW :wave: thanks for stopping by. :)
    Not job hunting at the mo. Trying to get rid of loads of 'stuff' and get my house in order.
    Yes, the savings are going well, I just need to keep selling stuff!

    I've not posted photos yet, I'm finding it difficult to get a good pic. May need to move some stuff around to get a decent photo. :o

  • Hi TC!

    Blimey, you're doing well. I have reached the point of no return with the clutter and am sending the vast majority of it to the charity shop/tip/recycling. I just don't have the room and it's unmanageable.

    Keep going - you're doing brilliantly!:T

    Thanks PB. :D
    I need to sell as much as I can to keep the momentum going. :)
    And to create some space and put towards some furniture I have my eye on. :D
    I can't buy it until:
    A) I make some room for it
    B) I make some money to pay for it.
    C) I have an extra £500 in savings
    So it could be some time before I achieve it but I will keep on selling etc until I achieve my objective or run out of stuff to sell. :)
