    Is Amazon the best place to sell books? I have alot of practically brand new children's books that I need to shift but am a bit reluctant to sit and list them all on ebay if they're gonna either not sell or only sell for a few pence!

    Sam - I would say it is, simply because you don't have to pay to list - you only pay amazon when you make a sale. BUT I've heard that ebay are abolishing their pre-sale charges, so.... don't know ! :D

    Sorry for the hijack, jacks, I just thought I'd step in.

    Hey ... you're in the email????? What???? !!!! I'd better go look again. :rotfl:

    Hi Jacks - I've just spent the last 2 hours reading throught the whole thread and it's been a really uplifting experience. Well done you!!

    Pleeeaaaase, though, can I ask what your M&S hamper was like? Did you get some really gorgeous goodies in there?;)

    You will be a real inspiration to the 100s of people who will also read this thread.

    Hi Jacks I just wanted to say well done. I have just finished reading through your thread. I should have gone to bed an hour ago, got to get up in the morning for a boot sale. You have given me even more inspiration to pay off this dreaded debt.

    Am loving all the replies of congratulations to you, they are truly deserved. have signed up to the 20K challenge which should be interesting and have been attempting NSD but not taking my cards with me when I got out its been truly enlightening and empowering to go without just spending for spending sake. so far march has been good the increased s/o seem to be working well and my mum is holding onto my cc's so I am not tempted to spend when I see that the balance is going down. You are right I am looking at the tiny light and keeping my eye on the prize. anyhow should get back to work and actually do some

    take care
