    well done rayday, i really must be your lucky ebay charm. ill keep saying it for you cos every time i say it you get loads of bids. here goes-ebay ebay ebay!
    so they went up from £22.86 this morning to £77.50 tonight?! should think youre proper chuffed out arent you!! well done anyway, obviously good descriptions on them chic!!!

    ive got two items on there no not really worth masses. but one is currently at £2.75 and other is at £6, both end tomorrow so hopefully ill get over a tenner into bank for them both after postage. fingers crossed for me eh.
    not puttin my ebay onto my sig yet cos might tempt fate. but, i shall be putting them on as soon as i can! one ends at 3.30 tomorrow (but at work all day) and other ends tomorrow night at 9pm (but at work al night too!), then were away at the caravan until tuesday, so i shall come on tomorrow in between work and work! if i get chance, and if not ill speak to you all on tuesday!

    have a nice bank holiday everyone and dont work too hard! speak tues

    Noggin you did it again! £104.50 I am getting nervous now!

    Your sales could go up quick over night its usually the last 24 hours that count. I have 20 items with no bids on so far :(
  • Evening folks!
    I got a nice refund cheque after complaining about poor service (inspired by another thread on here!) so that's a bit towards 4 Week Challenge!
    Plus I put a load of stuff on eBay today so after the weekend that should add up. I've challenged the family to cut our food shopping bill for a couple of weeks (even DS aged 7 is in on it and thinks it's good fun) and I've given up wine for the 4 weeks :eek: which is gonna be tough! But I'm determined!

    I see you're all doing very well too :T
