    Evening

    I only managed to list 15 items today,but there are still a few weeks left in December, so I will get to 20. I might even do more than 20 before the end of the month:D

    No is everyone else doing?

    Hi - thanks for the invite grassgirl. I really struggle to motivate myself with eBay so very much need the support of a group. I pushed myself over the weekend & listed over 20 items (although some of them were multiples so I've probably got a few free listing slots left) - but I still have some photos to add & measurements for the clothes.


    So I will aim for 20 fully completed listings this month.
    Shifting my energy for 2020 :heart::heart::heart:

    I'm really chuffed!

    It was all old handbags and shoes and purses and bits of jewellery....

    I've managed to clear one credit card with this :beer:

    Just a bit of inspiration for you all.. although I agree that the post office trips are a bit annoying it's all worth it.. I'm definitely doing it again this month!
