      Hi I would like to join. Plan to start listing today many years ago I did sell on ebay but tend to loss motivation. I have a house full of clutter my aim would be to sell to help towards 1% challenge.
      For me keeping track of the profit and number of items sold less clutter would be good.
      From 6/6/14
      Road kill me = 21p monster=3p
      1% = £60
      £5 a day (1.47 so far this month :(
      Virtual sealed pot #172 £7.31
      136 MFW £384/5900 mort £23384:mad:

      Hi and well done Mrs S :)

      Hi Jay125 :)

      I'm going to use this to motivate myself too, just sold my car but need to keep going with the little items too :)

      Will straighten columns when on a pc, just on phone so bit awkward, keep it up though, will hope to do this challenge monthly, resetting on the 1st, maybe with a running total? Happy happy hehe x

      How's everyone doing? Do you do several at a time or pace yourself? I'd like to get up to speed and attempt one a day next month..
