My road to being a millionaire - I wish

tifnstav

set yourself a goal of going to that car boot!
i get my hopes up that you're going to go every week and then i read something like "raining so i rolled over"!
thats like me - "i'll go for a run tonight"... then its "today ends in a y so i won't go for a run after all"!

run!! OMG my poor body would just collapse if I even tried. Ok I will do my very best to manage a sale this weekend. If I could be guaranteed to make a few bob you wouldnt see me for dust but they are so unpredictable.

yeah. was reading the ebay and car boot thread and someone's worst day at a boot sale was when they came away with 5p more than they came with!

millionaire_in_training

ha ha that would be just my luck. I'd be gutted

tifnstav

imagine the pap stuff you'd have to be selling to make just 5p though.
it might have been one of those stalls you see that is just old wine glasses and they want more for them than you'd pay in tesco!

i did a box like that for a friend, mainly using boots 2 for 1s and advantage points. i could barely carry it!

MIT have you thought about getting a humane mousetrap, then when you go to the carboot you could take said mousy with you and relocate the little squeaker - that way you don't have guilt-ridden daughter or dead mouse to deal with (I'd happily rescue live ones but had to get a bloke to come and shift the dead one I found), and there's more motivation to go to the car boot!:p

ok am i the first of us to weigh in, i have lost 4lbs since we started this (that doesnt put me back to where i was before i quit the gym and put some back on but at least its in the right direction again.

Ill be watching to see how the rest of you have done, good luck!

tifnstav

since i put the wieght in my signature i have lost another 3lbs, so 11lbs in total (i know thats counting before the challenge but i'm going to reach a plateau very soon and the punds will be tough to shift!)
still got wuite a way to go though, till i get to my wedding weight aim.
