THAT dress did not sell on eBay last night. The store won't give me a refund - turns out the girl that sold it to me is the Manager???? The item was sold on behalf of someone else - weird! I have to go in tomorrow and exchange £155 worth of dress for stuff I don't need. There is a lesson in itself. NEVER BUY SOMETHING IN A HURRY!!!!:mad::mad:


Someone has not recieved their eBay postage from me when it was sent in February. I now need to find out what happened to that ( she did not ask for recorded posting ) otherwise eBay will probably take money off me as they seem to favour the buyer over the seller.:mad::mad:

What a nightmare with that dress, hopefully you find sth nice to maybe sell on for a profit.

I always send mine recorded (even 99p items, never know how much they go for) hence my postage is bit higher and my rating for postage a bit lower but I know they can't dispute arrival and they know from the start they pay for recorded. The only exception is abroad (some countries don't do it anyway). Although the other day I was extremely lucky with an item send to Italy. Only read after he bought it avoid Italy as they're good at losing post and don't do recorded, luckily mine arrived, phew.

I hate that people don't give 5 stars for postage! I only ever charge the actual postage amount - it's the amount that the postage costs that they don't like, not what I have charged! I always give the option for 2nd Class now as well as 1st Class and mention it in my listing to let buyers know that there's a cheaper option. Some of them still mark me down!

I had to claim from the PO once when an item didn't arrive. It was no problem and the PO paid up, even although I didn't have a receipt for the item (it was something I'd had for a while and got rid of when I was moving house). There's a form you can download and send it off with proof of posting and the ebay advert. Just tick the box that says you're enclosing a receipt - I did, even although I didn't.

Ok, I'm hungry again - I still have the imaginary smell of jam crumblies in my head! Off to raid my cupboards to see what's munchable :EasterBun

No SFD today so still 4/25 for me. Will update budgets tomorrow. Did a food shop that was more than expected but hopefully will even out over the month. Onwards, upwards, warriors unite.

Just a quickie as cream crackered after work.....SFD for me which feels more comfortable now. Have cash purse for week but no planned spends until Saturday so should last okay.
Really need to embrace ebay to get my £100 this month as failed miserably last month, sorry about the nightmare dress Kat am sure it will come out good in the end.

Night all for now - onwards and upwards

Hello all!
Ufff I love all the positive vibes you all exhibit here trying your best to achieve your goals! I am feelings positive myself! I feel focus and become aware that I need to come often to this site in order to motivate myself even further to prevent me from going to spending mode...

Today, I am reporting my 4th FSD!

I will succeed and you too!

Regards to all

Toiletries spend today - didn't realise had used my reserve bottle of shampoo so shopping now over budget and have 25 days to go. Like I said in previous post I really didn't have a clue what to set as food budget but still disappointed
However, I am still determined to keep it low and keep going!

Hello everyone, been very busy at work the couple of days/evening and then on Monday even the washering machine started pouring out with water! We have decided to buy a new one as the cost of repair probably isnt worth it (its a washer dryer), any recommendations? Cheaper the better! Theres a few from Argos that you can just pick up.

Appart from that, no spends monday or tuesday, just weekly top up from sainsburys yesterday £30 (taking total to £160) and NSD 4/6.
