Well the shopping plan didnt work. Youngest came with me whos 15 and when i got to check out jen and berrys ice cream and a nintendo mag :eek: lol. The total was 90-41 lol so my budget out of the window. Just counted my piggy and £32 in change so will wait for full bags and take some this week.

Well done everyone so far. I've just sold a few things on ebay - hurrah! - but will be scraping the barrel for more things to sell to reach my target!

My OH is joining me on this challenge yeay. He is a taxi driver and is putting his first fare of every night separate to his other money and this is going in the 'pot'. Last night it was £3.00 heres hoping he gets a £30.00 first job tonight! x

Evening everyone

I have managed to pay another £10 off the card. Not sure how much longer I can keep this up though, need to make some more money some how.

I'm going to go through my stuff tomorrow and find items to list on Ebay that I believe will fetch me around £50 on Ebay. I will do the same on Tuesday to list on Tuesday night and then again next Sunday.

I reckon that the cut-off day for listing items on Ebay and receiving the money in time for the end of this challenge is Sunday the 19th August as this gives enough time for Paypal payments to go through to bank accounts.

Therefore if I can keep the 'items for £50 thing' going twice a week until then, I will make £250. On top of the mystery shopping money, I think this will be enough to clear my card.

The only thing now is finding stuff to sell .

I received an Xbox 360 game today which should sell for around £30 so I've only got another £20 worth of stuff to find tomorrow.

I feel better now that I've got a plan sorted out, I'm waiting for loads of prizes so if they all turn up soon then I can sell them.

Haven't done anything today and feeling a bitty deflated. I have some things on e-bay and will put loads more on tomorrow and hopefully get some cash from those. No-one biting yet but I always do 10 day listings so over a week still to go x

Morning all.

Just checking in from my night shift. I did a couple of Matched Bet's yesterday and my total is now under my signature.

Think I am definately going to reach target as I have a couple of bonuses still to wager through. I will also do some more sign up's in the week after my night duty stink.

I have managed to pay another £15 off my Barclaycard today which means that I have paid off £10 every day of this challenge (so far). :j

I'm struggling to find enough stuff to list on Ebay though, I should be ok for £50 worth of stuff today but Tuesday is a different matter. I just hope and pray that the postie pays me a visit with some prizes tomorrow .

Off to take pictures and hunt down more stuff.
