  • Having finally remembered my username and stuff I think I should celebrate by joining my first challenge.

    I just hope there's no time limit as it'll probably be a week before I get properly started on this!

  • This sounds like a good idea, I might give it a try (although i'll probably fail miserably!!)

    Fairyclicks - congratulations on becoming debt free. I've seen you on other threads and I know how hard you have worked on becoming debt free.

    Well life has taken an interesting turn for me - ebay account has now been completely restricted for no apparent reason at all - everything was up to standard and the email said they didn't like my business model???? anyway its going to be fun doing this challenge without ebay but i will try my best lol!

    Before account was cancelled i had another 2 sales = £10

    94 items to go and £33.99 made

    So i guess i will be focusing on fb and gumtree selling and have booked into a car boot sale on Saturday.....i don't give up that easily ebay you daft site :P

    Thanks for the congrats larlie :) yes it was hard work but feels pretty good to be out the other end!!

    Good Luck all :) xx

    Hi please can I join you? I have been listing things on facebook the last few days and have had a few sales but the initial excitement of clearing out and taking photos of things has waned a little and I could do with a boost! I had set myself of making £150 by christmas, which I will stick with too :)
    I will post my sales in a bit, but for now its:

    0/100

    good luck everyone!
