    :xmastree: :wave: Hello lovelies!

    I'm just sitting here willing people to bid on my eBay items before they finish so I thought I'd do an update.

    I haven't bought anything for poor old hubby yet or my BIL and nephew but everyone else is sorted. (BIL and nephew liek to tell me what to get and they haven't decided yet.)

    However Hubby would like a £120 shed bless him and BIL and nephew are not known for making scaled down low cost demands so I may still have a little way to go yet. :eek:

    I'm such a last minute merchant! :o

    Love Jacks xxx :D

  • I had quite a good day on Ebay on Sunday and I'm now up to £200.09, which is 33% of my Christmas budget and I'm well pleased with that. This thread has really driven me on to sell as much as I could. The 10p listing day on Wednesday is tempting but I am just going to call it a day now and make a start on writing my Christmas cards! A million thanks to Jamtart6 and everyone else who's posted on here, and well done to you all. It's all a bit more money in the bank and a bit less clutter in the loft! All this ebaying experience has put me in a good position to start on next year's challenge, the Money Neutral Gift Challenge. See you all there!
  • hi everyone, i joined this challenge when it first started and shamefully have not kept up with it... :confused:
    im dissapointed with myself, esp now i can see youve all done so well :T:T:T
