  • Filed some Tax bits so hopefully getting something back there please mr Taxman :) but might get a few quid - fingers and toes crossed if I get it I will blow it on a bit of luxury lol rather than save it. Hopefully it wont take much longer to get the decision back.

  • STILL nothing from the tax man but very have sorted the £95 so cheque on its way to me - well done very :)


    Ebay sales up to 190 so that's got to be £150 profit ...whoop whoop aiming to make £260 ...unless I hear some good news from the Taxman.

  • Flebay has gone mad for me this month ...I have made around £300.. although I have sold a lot - I have got to spend this evening parcelling.

    I think I will decide on a final figure and then give the remainder to charity as well to be honest i'm really tired of posting. :cool:

    I got a measly few quid back from tax man although nothing to wet my pants about:rotfl: so didn't stop ebaying.


    Trying to make quite a bit extra this month to help me hang on to my savings.


    Accounts all looking Ok as of 22nd but cant wait until payday.

    Clothes - mainly lol ...pretty soon maybe I will be walking round naked :)


    Up to £309 profit - Aiming for £350 - but only dregs left now so very doubtful for may more sales.:D


    Been working out how much I can save on pay day this month although I do have some in's report to - Kingsize Duvet Cover, jacket, trousers and shoes - all for work.


    Being very frugal over the next 4 days before pay day so anything I can keep in the account I might overpay the council tax so I don't have to think about that until nearer April.


    Cant wait to have a catch up on all the diaries :D

    Great on eBay sales. You know that bowing down thing people do to show admiration? Doing that now :)
    If you have built castles in the air, your work should not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them

  • Lol sorry - that's for home :o


    Although could be useful at work? I could pretend to be a ghost ( a flowery one - mind) and get some time off for mental health issues ...:rotfl:


    Total sales £387.58 - 1 thing left selling . So knocked 20% off that total to cover all fees and extra post costs etc.


    So Looking at Final Profit of £310 to be realistic ;)


    Nothing much to report only two days til payday - need to check the bank balance tonight GULPS!:eek:
