My debt busting diary!

Not much of an update, no movement on the eBay sales so at the minute nothing else paid off cc2.
Have managed to $wag another £5 GC - currently waiting on £15 worth. They seem to be really slow cashing them out at the minute :mad:
Still no sign of 1poll payout....0 -
Have decided to follow you and have paid two small payments to a cc. Rounding down the bank account. Look after the pennies and the pounds will look after themselves....... I had a massive sort out a few months ago and sold loads of bits, a saddle and a couple of half pads made quite a bit, have got loads and loads of rugs, all old and repaired but serviceable. Need to get my clothes out though and look what I can sell, I live in jeans and hoodies so the posh dresses need to go lol£250 shopping, diesel and any other spends

Been a fairly low spend weekend thankfully. Quick top up shop of fresh stuff yesterday - used a couple of vouchers so only spent just over £15.
Sold 3 items on eBay today - just waiting for one buyer to pay. Have paid £12.25 from the two items off cc2. Relisted the items that didn't sell.
Need to put a few more items on eBay. Had no takers on local Facebook page so will list those for collection only as I guess they'll be a bit awkward to post. Will try and get round to it tomorrow evening.0 -
Good luck with the sort out Cwtchie ��0

No update for a couple of days. Things have slowed up a bit on the eBay sales / overpayment front. Listed a few more items on Monday night but as yet no bidders.
My $wag vouchers finally came through and have managed to tick another couple of Christmas pressies off my list - feeling nicely organised
Hoping today is not going to be as wet and miserable as the last couple of days - fingers crossed.0 -

Had an item sell on eBay on Friday - so another £8.22 chucked at cc2. A few more items are finishing tonight and a couple tomorrow. Just one bid so far. Got a couple more bits to put on - will hopefully get round to that later.
Done a small top up shop on Friday. If all goes according to plan the food shop should come in below budget for about the first time ever
Hope everyone's having a good weekend :j0 -
