  • Going ebay crazy at the minute...

    3 things finishing today. Only one has a watcher though so i think they will all need relisting :)

    Am trying to list a few things a day... thing is i never know what will sell. My friend has sold some really random things for a lot of money.. like old tshirts with stains on and that but i dont get why as they arent really nice ones...

    we will continue anyway :)

    5p on Qmee so far!

    If you have wanted them for years, maybe they could be your treat for next Christmas once you are debt free?

  • good going raggydoll85!

    I love doing a phantom shop! Tend to spend 400-500 in a pop in H0bbs and then never complete the order! hahahahaha! But it really does curb the itchy hands - you never know you could try and see if they're in the post-xmas sale and start saving 10-20 towards them? a self-gift for busting so much debt and get them at a discount thus feeling good about yourself ?!! :)

    hahaha took a lot of will power.. i was sat there going "oo i could get free postage if i spend £50" and was browsing for presents etc..
    Ive been looking for them on ebay but they are usually more to buy them from there than on the disney site....

    yeah! im thinking either a treat for the 2014 xmas when i am debt free (hopefully) or i can save for them... see if they are cheap at some point...
    they are only £22 but i still shouldnt

  • £7.33 from an ebay sale that someone has finally paid for :) (minus fees) woop

    Paid £0.71 to the OD :)
    One week till pay day.. any leftover money from the month will be paid to one of my debts :)

    So next month (i go from 19th to 19th as months) Dads debt will be gone :) OD will be £100 less mum will be less... not sure what the credit card will be... less hopefully lol depends on interest etc :) but should be less even just by pennies...
