    Got quite a few photographed and listed since I started this diary and that's only a very small percentage of the stuff that needs to go-loads more in the loft and in various drawers and cupboards. :eek:
    This month and with the help of my diary I have managed to:
    pay off over £350 from the mortgage, :j
    pay off over £100 from the catalogue , :j
    paid over £50 from the cost of holiday :j
    and save £120 in my shiny new savings account. :):D
    Obviously getting rid of 'stuff' (I've hoarded for far too long ) through ebay has helped enormously, as well as taking packed lunches to work and cutting out the impulse purchases.
    Fingers crossed for continued ebay sales-I can't believe how much junk we've hoarded over the years...

    Hi pixnmix :wave: Thanks. :)
    Of course it has helped that we pay council tax over 10 months so I can throw the extra money from that into the pot.
    This diary is really motivating and of course, reading other people's diaries too to get inspiration, hints, and tips along the way. :)
