    Hi Maria,

    Yes read the bit about ebay GHD's, so now i'm deciding where to get them? i might order them where you got yours, if they are still giving away free perfume.

    Thanks Maria. As they are still offering the perfume i will do it through that site, that may make it worth paying an extra £30 lol. I will def take up your referal.

    Thank you x

    Morning all,

    My parents have gone to the beach for the day and my OH is staying at home to drink beer and watch West Ham play. So with nothing esle to do today i must list some things on ebay!!!

    Yesterday i sorted all through my bedroom, chucking anything i no longer needed in the bin, bagged up clothes i no longer like into bags, and made a pile of things to list on ebay.
    After i had finished it was about 10pm at night! OH was round so we drove down to Asda to put my bags of unwanted clothes in the clothes bins for charity. As i put them in i noticed that by the bottle banks there was a console with a note on ' Free to good home' it was an Xbox console and 2 controllers (the old one)!!!!! So i picked it up and took it home! Its in really good condition on the outside, but im still to test if it works or not. If it does work im going to pop it on ebay! As they go for about £10 -£20, if it doesnt sell i will take to to the charity shop or freecycle. Thats about the 3rd time ive seen unwanted bits by them bottle bins with 'free to good home' ...they obviously dont know about freecycle or cant be bothered to use it.

    So my list for today is...

    * Take pic of things to list on ebay
    * List bits on ebay
    * Test the Xbox & list if it works
    * Dye my hair
    * Do daily clicks
    * Look through cashback site for good deals
    * Look on freecycle

    OK well i listed 3 things on ebay, 2 perfumes and a wii game. The other bits dont look like they sell well so didnt list them in the end.

    I plugged in the free Xbox and it comes on in japanese!!!! I googled the problem and people said it probably has a japanese chip in it and i can buy an english chip for cheap. But i cant be bothered in doing that seeing its only worth about £10 anyway. Dont think i should give it to a charity shop as someone would buy it and then find its not in english! Think i will put it in freecycle for someone saying the problem of course! first i will have a look on techie board for help.

    I really havent done much at all today and been really bored at home alone. waiting for mum to get home so she can dye my hair! :)
