Afternoon all,
I have one more item to list today which should net us around £30 with a bit of luck.
DH working away all next week, and it's the penultimate week of the school holidays. I have £3.50 in my purse, a well-stocked fridge, freezer and store cupboard so my intention (:o) is not to use our debit card AT ALL this week (save for ebay postage), and just use that bit of money I have. It's been a while since I had a little challenge, so I am really up for this oneMFW

Morning all
Up early with DH going to work. Kiddies watching kindles in bed next to me and I'm having a brew to come round.
Today's priority - I need to focus on getting some bits on eBay. Will also make a big pot of broccoli and Stilton soup which will do for my lunches this week. It looks like it's going to be a nice day so the kiddies can play out. Penultimate week of school holidays about to commence!
Meals will be freezer surprise all round. Uh oh just had to issue a screen ban warning if they don't stop bickering (it's only 7am :rotfl)
Have great days all xx
Edited to add - just had a £20 buy it now sale
Edited once again to add - item I listed last night just sold for £40 on buy it nowMFW

Oooh everyone in the ATB house is grumpy today! Kids are bored (I'm sure when I was a kid I never used that word!) and I had instigated a screen ban to try and encourage them to actually PLAY together!
I have two more bits to list on ebay so that will be 4 things remaining on there. If I got £20 for all of them collectively I would be chuffed.
Spent £1.98 from my £3.50 stash today on biscuits, bananas and ham!
Must confess to having had a shower and already in PJsMFW
