    Alright I'm back. Put me down for £5 this month - having failed miserably two months in a row.

    Lost all motivation to do anything.

    eBay bully buyer moron opened a case citing "terrible condition" (because he was getting nowhere with "misleading listing") without details or photos to back that up, but because he SAID 'terrible condition' they closed it in his favour and I can't appeal until I've got the f**** thing back.

    Great to see you're back:T. I hope your birthday celebrations were fun:beer:

    Sorry to hear about your eBay problems. The more I hear of eBay the less I'm tempted to do more on there. Someone else in a recent post had been having trouble with stroppy buyers as well:(.

    I'm over the moon. Received a call today to say I had won a meal for 2 at Loch Fynn up to £100! So we are going on a date night next weekend. I would never normally spend that much on a meal though, I'd normally budget £50-£60 so as we'll probably buy some drinks as there's only 1 included I'll count this as £50 made.

    Also made £1.58 on postage on an eBay package that went through as a large letter.

    Total this month - £72.28
    Make £10 per day-
    June: £100/£300

    Happy Weekend everyone!

    $8 from Clixsense.
    Lots of grocery shopping savings - about $120 so far this month although I don't count them anywhere.

    I'm sorry that I rarely contribute to the conversations - my two children and daily 2 x 1 hour driving commute can make it difficult to do so.

    I am thinking of all who are having ebay and other issues. :(

    Your adventures today sound wonderful Aesop.

    Horseygirl - I love your energy!!

    Lynne - sorry to hear about the cataracts. The procedure is not exactly pleasant, but it will be pain-free and over quickly.

    Azzzaa - please tell us more about the boat. You will be living on it, right? I looked into doing that when I was studying in Norwich....I wasn't brave enough to follow through however.

    Catch you tomorrow!
    Your biggest asset is TIME! I'm focused on multi-generational financial freedom.

    Yesterday I went with DS on his school trip to Chiltern the open air museum. We had a fantastic day. Then I will the evening went out with DS and the cubs to a scalextrix evening. It was sooooooo much fun. We had an excellent day!!!

    The thing is this is a hidden in gem. No one has heard of it before though it is very popular. It is hidden away too.

    You must have been around my neck of the woods.

    We went to the Chiltern Open Air Museum 3 times on Primary School Trips. But have to admit haven't been back since - glad you enjoyed it.

    Had an ebay sale come in yesterday, and a Quidco payment this morning so puts me at £26.60 so far for the month.

    I'm sorry to read people are having issues with mean sellers on ebay. I have felt it has been on a decline for a few years now, but unfortunately for me it is the easiest way of selling. Plus I get free postage at work, so I'm already ahead of the game in that respect.

    On that note, as the sun is out for the day I will list more summer outfits on ebay. Will also be having a huge trying on session later as I think I some clothes are starting to get too big for me :j so maybe a few more items to add to the selling pile!
