  • Well done to everyone so far - lots of you doing so well!

    My total is still at 0 :( Well, I've sold a compact camera I don't use to my brother for £30, but until I get the money the pot remains at 0. Got a few Buy It Now's listed on eBay waiting for someone to take a bite, and I've got plenty more stuff to list. I also need to count the change in my copper jar as there's probably a few quid in there to add to my total!

    Hope everyone's had a good weekend :)
  • Made £20 today on my broken Washing Machine. I wonder how this could be a profit when I didn't want it to break and be replaced in the first place. But I decided that's life. So I now have a new machine on it's way at January Sales prices and rather than send mine for scrap I made the £20 better than nothing. So adding it to my total.

    I have probably saved a little on the Lecky bill since the MIL has been doingmy washing for the last 3 weeks too.
    Oh I do want to live in Countryside.......with the kids, pets and LOTS of books.........
