    Off to a start at last - 1p Roadkill :rotfl: I've listed 11 items on eBay today so hopefully will have something more to add next week.

    It makes a big difference not being able to add my coaching money now that it's become my main income. I've started a "debt free diary" about my new venture if anyone's interested (link in sig) - so far it's mostly me moaning about listing stuff on eBay but I'm hoping it will get a bit more interesting soon .... :)

  • somerandom, don't worry about moaning about listing on eBay, I think it's a pet hate of a lot of us:(

    Just tried the link to your diary but it doesn't work (for me anyway).
  • Wow, CatherineMM,, that's a brilliant amount so early in the month. That must have been an awesome carboot sale:j

    Thanks. I think due to heavy morning fog and only a handful of sellers that the collectors and dealers saw me as their only choice...some people came back several times :) I had a few boxes of old inherited trinkets. Nothing special though! I did get 11 fake pound coins passed to me too though... Which was not fair in my opinion... I will be sticking to my massive clear out now... This is an amazing incentive!

    That's a good idea. I usually get one or two...haven't done a carboot sell in a year but to get 11 fakes! Hmm.

    i also got a New Zealand dollar in lieu of a coin! Hmmm

    I personally say if you can take the money saved and put aside or use for bills etc, yes

    Hi everyone :o

    I have decided to re decorate our bedroom in two weeks as a surprise for dh (hopefully while he's at work for the day but a bit ambitious!)

    I have priced everything up online and think I could get it looking alot fresher for under £100 (lick of paint/new curtains etc) - we've lived here for 11 years and never been able to afford to do it so would be a fab thing to pull off if I can manage it.

    So I need to up my game and get myself in gear to make the money for it. Going to be a push with other existing stuff to pay for but really want to try.

    Hope everyone is doing ok xx
