    If you don't mind me asking, what sells well? I have never been to a car boot sale :eek: or sold anything at one - is it decluttering or destashing?

    Many thanks

    Got that one too on one of my established accounts with recent sales, so not targeted at dormant accounts, possibly just random?.

    Possibly. Mine is active now but I'm more of a buyer than a seller. I do have stuff listed on there now though

    I have lots of dresses ordered thanks to Rhosy search. At present I have 5 I am keeping and another 8 on order from either Planet or Just Last Season Some are for work some are for my next holiday All were £29.00 so not much dearer than Asda/Tesco/Next where work stuff came but so much better quality:D

    Two that I really liked were too tight being from the Precis range:(

    Morning !!
    Nasty shock this morning....had an online gas bill through and its £698.56 in debit. My payments of £175 per month will need to rise to ...£296.19 per month. Anyone got a shed to rent ??

    are you only doing quarterly readings?

    I read my metre every month so at least I know how good or bad things are and I always know exactly how much I am in credit (or debit)

    December was a strange month. Even though we were not home for 2 weeks we still managed to use £160 of electric - was it really that cold in December or was it because of Christmas lights and visitors showeringing and eating for days on end?
    back down to £60 in January which was fairly normal

    They seem to be running a few promos recently - I opted in to the maximum £1 final value fee one last month and managed to clear a few items that had been cluttering the place up.

    I have realised though to double check settings for postage as a few I wasn't paying attention and it had defaulted to R0yal Mail ... then found with the dimensions how much it would cost to send :eek:. Worth measuring and weighing any items you are selling (including packaging) before listing :o. Lesson learnt.

    Good morning.

    DS and I are now back in the relatively tropical climes of the UK after our awesome week in Iceland. No doubt we will be acclimatised before the end of the week, and will be wanting the central heating back on.

    Got to do a muggle shop today to get some fruit, milk and bread in.

    Have a lovely day all :)

    Eldest son and GF are there for 4 days in March. They have booked an apartment.
    any useful tips would be appreciated especially about cheaper eating places. I showed eldest son the page on tripadvisor but I don't think he was taking much notice. I did notice a very cute fish and chip van :D

    also they are worried about there not being much to do in the evenings.

    GF has her birthday while they are out there and that's the day they are going to the blue lagoon but eldest son wants to do something in the evening as well
