    Thank you so much. I have started to take photos ready to list tomorrow! I don't think I have ever been so excited about listing things on fleabay!

  • Really happy as of close of play I have sold 2 things on buy it now, £20 in total minus postage and fees, but I'm chuffed! Also have low bids on a couple of bits and a few watchers. I managed to squeak on another 4 items tonight, but it was just fashion jewellery so I'm expecting it to eventually end up in the charity shop, which is absolutely fine :-)

    Hi Kitty,

    that's great that you've sold a couple of things. Mine are all on bids, no bids yet but quite a few watchers, so fingers crossed for Sunday night :) I haven't had time to find anything else out today but will try and find half an hour to do some draft listings ready to start on Sunday.

    Just noticed your signature, well done on losing weight :) thats great. good luck getting to your goal weight. I broke my knee really badly last year and gained some weight, hoping to lose it this year.

    2 pairs of shoes found at the back of the wardrobe, so will list these today. Both bought for weddings, only worn once and never likely to be worn again. Hopefully they will sell. No bids yet on other items, fingers crossed x
  • Well done everyone, some great progress here, and great recycling aswell.
    My enthusiasm was waning this morning. But I've done it, another item listed. PS3 game, Resident Evil 5 Buy It Now £3.99 ... bargain.

    Done ..... keep listing!
  • Hey :-)

    Going to jump in on this if that's okay? I realise I am 4 days behind but I have put 5 things on today to catch up so I am 5/29.

    I have a ridiculous amount of buttons and ribbon so they are the first things going on.

    Well done everyone so far - fingers crossed people want to buy eBay this month.

    I've been so busy all week that I didn't get a chance to list anything but I've caught up now and I've got 5 items listed as of an hour ago! 1 watcher already :) If everything sells for the listing price it'll be £34 less fees. Might just hit my £25 target.

    Thanks for starting this challenge Kittycashcake. I haven't listed anything since October so you've got me motivated again :)

    Ok reading this has definitely motivated me to join in. I know I have a couple of things I could list already, my sons coat I was going to take to the charity shop but can try it on ebay first and an old coat of mine, size 10 I am never going to fit in it again, definitely a few books as well and I have a drawer of stuff, there might be something in there. I will go searching this evening.
  • So far I have listed 10/29 items and one has a bid on it - all are due to finish tomorrow night so fingers crossed for the other 9 things.

    Will be having a good rummage around for other things this weekend too.
