    Are you poorly again Sam? :( I hope you're better soon. How's your personal investment time coming along?

    I need to get back on the eBay wagon! I have lots of stuff that I've put up a few times which haven't sold so a trip to the charity shop is also required.

  • I'm free from 7 tonight so I am having a sort out


    First check all bills / bank
    Second cleaning
    Third - look at some ebay things to sell - I mean really how many things do we actually need - maybe I will start in the kitchen again and go around the place to see what I can get shot off..: )


    I think I might be able to raise some funds to take on my September holiday :)


    So Here's my challenge to make £5 a day for 30 days ...which is £150 towards spending money...

    Savings pot ONLY at £2K??? Ha ha! I love that! Amusement aside though, it's good to want that up to as high an amount as possible.

    I've just had a cashback get rejected, but I think that was because it was a mistaken tracking and I didn't buy the product. I still felt disappointed though! :D

    We all need to make an eBay pact! I'm so bi-polar when it comes to putting things up for sale. It's either gung ho and even the clothes I'm wearing are at risk, or I don't do anything. It's the queue at the post office that makes me dread it more than anything else. Perhaps I should just put up 5 items a week!

    Yay to flight money return.
