    Payday this week for me so I'm hoping to pay off a bit more off my credit card. I need to start making smaller payment when I can as we've just booked a holiday for July and need to get the credit card down as much as possible :eek:

  • getting really frustrated by ebay customers at the minute, have 3 people claiming item not received in the same (rather rough) area of the country, totalling about £30 worth of cost price to me and paypal has put a hold on the money and it looks like im going to lose out to these scammers, and the two customers owing me over £110 still not paid, there packages are here wrapped up ready for the call to the courier....

    Really feeling quite stressed about it as if I had this money today I could make payment to some of the ads and get my business earning again

    Right,

    Its time to challenge myself.. if I dont challenge myself then things never get done (went a bit crazy over the weekend and had a unplanned box of wine and a chinese for our saturday night off - no more of that this month! )

    Me and Mrs NLID were married at the end of may 6 years ago and our honeymoon was a borrowed caravan in towyn as money was tighter than a ducks bottom, and so I have promised myself that we are going to do something special every year for our anniversary - and as we have both commited to paying our debts off this year - I have a plan for what I hope is one of the best anniversaries ever... and I have 19 days...

    I am going to hit 50% of our small target paid off. This means we need to make £105 per day as we owe £1,999 to hit this target - No Ifs, No Buts or maybes - We ARE going to hit this target.

    Only one probalem, I have £43 of the money already - leaving £1956 to raise..

    One of the annoying ebays claims he is paying tonight, that will put me on £127 of this target, this will pay the council tax arrears for this month and move me closer to my target.. I have a car that the part should be here tomorrow to enable me to MOT it and get it gone, hopefully before the end of this month bringing in another £500.. then its onto the ebay listing again for the next £1372 of the target..

    Any ideas ladies and gents on what junk / quality second hand merchandise sells really well?

    do you send the items signed for? and/or do you have a receipt? if you do then you can claim the money back from RM.
