    Hi dfod,


    Hope you keeping well? I am finding fleabay a bit slow overall.... glad its good for you though!


    Never did the bootfair at the weekend.... there is another one this Sunday, so might aim for that. We'll see - there are 4 days in between to change my mind / change the plan!

    Wow you are the queen of fleabay and boot sales! Incredible results! And good news re student loan. Not much interest on in either, which is always good!

    Hi Catriona79 and thank you for your post... I am trying!!


    Another fleabay item sold at just gone midnight this morning - so that is already boxed up and ready to go to the PO at lunch! Another £4.97 in the pot!


    I do have to report though that my tax code has changed (there's a surprise - it seems to happen several times a year!) and is £10 lower than it previously was! Oh well, it will only make pennies difference a week!
    I will be back tomorrow with my weekly (payday) update!! Betcha cant wait!? lol

    Happy Payday Peoples!

    Was merrily sat here doing my online banking when another fleabay item sold! That will be posted on Monday now. It puts another £4.10 in the pot and brings the number of items sold this month up to 4! Need to put some more items on there. If they are not on there - they are not going to sell!

    So, 10 payments to OH to go! THE GRAND TOTAL OF £1000.00! That's just 5 weeks! Whoop-whoop! (5 normal weekly payments and £500 lump sum!!)


    The weather looks great for tomorrow - and I am at work.. but it's only til 2 and then I will be in the garden!! Weather looks pants for Sunday, so instead of busting a gut to get stuff ready for a bootfair, I am going to try and get everything that I have set aside for fleabay photographed and either listed for BIN items or scheduled for Thursday for auction items!


    Ok, so I think that is everything from me for now. Have a great weekend everyone! xxx

    Happy 'really rather wet' Monday All!


    Well, as predicted the weather was a bit p4nts yesterday - so I took the opportunity to photograph everything I currently have set aside to fleabay - and managed to list 8 of the items. One went live yesterday and already has a watcher - the other 7 go live on Thursday (free scheduled timings at the moment, so I thought... "why not?")

    So, a starting bid on the T-shirt listed (by accident) on fleabay.


    O.Poll is up to £11.35, which is 28.38% of the payout amount. Seems to have slowed a bit. Oh well.

    Good *sunny for now* Friday / payday morning All!


    Online banking complete!
    9 payments left to OH (= 4 weeks and £500 lump sum)
    O.Poll up to £12.30 which is 30.75% of the payout value.
    Nothing extra sold on fleabay, but 4 items went live last night and another 3 go live tonight! There are some watchers on last nights items so hopeful they will sell.
    Off to visit some family this weekend - looking forward to that! Shouldn't be too spendy!!?
    So that's all the good things.... not so good things = holiday booked for 18 days time, music festival and a nights stay in London booked for November!! Oops! But it will all be fine! :)


    Have a great weekend! Hope the sun shines at least some of the time! xxx

    So fleabay total for August was a little disappointing... £28.95. The first of my auction items ends this evening - I have 4 watchers, so hoping it will go up from the 99p it is at at the moment!


    O.Poll up to £13.25 = 33.125% of payout. Would like to get to payout before I go on holiday - but that is not looking likely! Oh well! Can't have it all my own way (although that would be nice!!)
