I now have 2 bids on one of my items on e-B*y and 8 watchers but I am starting to panic because I've not read up on what happens when the bid closes. Can someone enlighten me in layman's terms what my next step will be? I am going to spend another hour or so listing some other items as it's another free listing weekend.

Have a good afternoon.

Well done on selling those items. Kerri pretty much summed up what happens when the auction closes but come back and ask if you're stuck

Thanks Freeby

I will definitely pop back if I get stuck. I am just a little nervous because this is my first time of actually selling something.

Declaring today as NSD #10 :T

Managed to get myself organised enough to put the dried beans to soak overnight. 3 types that way and 3 from tins then used today to make the bean casserole for tea tonight (and late lunch/early tea tomorrow, and then at least a couple of meals for me next week).

And my breadmaker went on this morning. Meant I could finish off the loaf I had at breakfast today. I then used the one I made for lunch, and can also have toast for breakfast tomorrow as well without having had to give up an NSD for the sake of some bread

Still struggling to get to grips with the recipes for my smaller machine though. I'm making the basic white, and it's miles too sweet for me I've tried reducing the sugar a bit, but I'm really not sure how far I dare reduce it without it impacting the finished result........ Guess it's going to be a case of trial and error over the next few weeks (while I get on with using up the bread flour I have in the house to make more cupboard space )

Hello Gang..I've been out a'hunnun she-lay-lees & stones for the blar knees for tumorra. While out I found a PYO four leaf clover farm too so if Igor gets Hubert ready, we can go this afternoon to get supplies in for the bbq

Now..let me think..Tuesday was a small grocery spendy in case the weather continued to be bad (which it didn't, typical, t'uh), Weds wasn't :j Thurs proper food spendy & yesterday wasn't, so I make that 10 nsds up to & including yesterday :T

Thanks very much Kerri, you are a star. I will go and have a browse now because my auction closes tonight and I want to be prepared. Hopefully the buyer will realise that I won't be able to send the item until Monday when the Post Office opens.

CW

Don't worry, most buyers won't expect items to be posted right away, and deff not at the weekend. There is a section when you set up your auction listing where you can state your despatch time (like 1-2 working days etc).

You'll be fine, panic not and ask away if you get stuck xx

Top up shopping and motion lotion day today, but hope another NSD will drop into the Cauldron of Doom tomorrow.

BigMumma - Igor and Hubert have just got back from the PYO 4-leaf clover farm with the makings for the shamrock salad for the BBQ tomorrow. (They took a while because Igor had difficulty fathoming out how to put Hubert's wellies on. Anything more than 2 legs confuses the poor chap.)

Freeby - you were right. It wasn't mulled Guinness in the cauldron, but something much, much worse. I feel sorry for those of you who are drinking tomorrow night......

Ennessdee Towers is festooned with green bunting and posters of shamrocks and little men in green with pointy hats clutching pots of gold. The BBQ will be fired up at sundown tomorrow with a tempting array of goodies lined up for cremation. Plus loads of potato-based dishes for the veggies amongst us. Just need Igor to confirm who he has booked for the entertainment....
