eBay Neutral Christmas Savings Challenge

I think anything you sell can technically be a profit, as long as you get back what you spent. I bought 2 ipod cases @ £1 the other day, they dont fit my ipod and cant take them back, so technically anything i make is classed as profit, cos otherwise they'd be shoved to the back of the wardrobe and not earning a penny.

I have bought a few more christmas gifts today

Bought 2 Baskets in In Stores one Lilac & one pink with hinged lids £ 8
Also from instores set of 3 lined baskets £10 & Story Book £ 1
Total spend £ 19

Also bought Horse design postcards, fairy stickers & Fairy gift set & Small Horse cuddly teddy and a lion Total £ 12.93

today £ 31.93

The Good news is though that I sold an MP3 player on amazon today which cost me £6.24 that I had got for someone for xmas, but their mother has since told me has already bought them - after fees etc £ 13.76

Hoping to sell a few more items over the weekend

ahhhhhhhhhh I still havent had a chance to even begin ebaying

Everything is all sorted and stacked in boxes in my sons room, but just not getting the opportunity to begin listing. I'm going to list at least a box a week.

I've decided I'm going to stick a sign on the computer booking it for the evening lol ...otherwise I just let my daughters go on msn and I feel mean kicking them off.

An A4 sign all written out and as soon as I sign off its going to be stuck to the keyboards.:D

Good luck everyone, great to see more people joining in.

ohhhhh I'm feeling really christmas (getting on oh's nerves actually cause I keep mentioning it lol. With this thread at least I'm getting my daily christmas fix :xmassmile

Sally savings - sorry to hear that you havent had a chance to list anything. But dont despair - I think the note on the computer is a great idea.

I would also be cheeky and add to the note a bit
"I need to go onto the computer to raise money for christmas pressies - so just to let you all know - no computer for me - then no pressies for you" :rotfl:

Good luck with the listing
