    I have 2 coats on eBay at the moment but no bids yet. I think I might have priced the starting bid to high but sure we'll see soon enough. I can reduce it. I haven't sold much since the novelty wore off but did sell a toddler bed for £45 so I was happy with that.

    You can always reduce the price of the coats - Xmas purchases are beginning to be made now, they should sell :)

    I've moved an account to Halifax today! Sure why not. £100 for doing a bit of paperwork. No loyalty with me! I'll let you know how I get on.

    It'll go towards Xmas presents and not mortgage OP though!

    All good here lucky. Still employed and am glad of that for now. What about you? When are you going to make your first big OP when the £50 goes through? Can you believe how far we've both come in a short time?!!

    Also had a look back at my first few posts there and it's crazy to think in a few years I'll have broken the 200k barrier! That will be a happy day!!!
