  • Can you use the smartphone app to list the ebay items? Its the only thing I use to list things and it takes me <5 minutes to list something including taking the photos.

    Backside kicked over towards you :D

    Have to say I gave up on it last week and sent items to the CS..but I try several times before giving up..still thats probably not what you wanted to hear!

    On hols this week but so far have only eaten out once..yesterday for fish and chips. (Did have a spontaneous splurge on Thurs 31st tho..but kept to one glass and one course which kept the bill low!) So steady 6.5/10 for me??? How are you doing??

    Hi Debs..all good with you?

    Managed to limit the eating out whilst on hols to twice. Both times fish and chips and no alcohol really as were driving. Makes a real difference.

    Well I'm back - health took a turn for the worse and ended up back in hospital for a bit - so very little activity on the debt busting front over the last couple of week need to sit down and confirm all the latest balances - I'm determined to get under 30k by the end of the year. I'm back on it now and 5 items went up on eBay yesterday, meal plan has been done for the week - and shall not be deviated from.... Aim to get another 10 items up on eBay by end of the week - onwards and upwards !
