    Make a start now & list just 1 of your items. It won't take long and it will be one less to do at another time.

    Omg I actually did it! I listed all 20 items! I really didn’t think I woulD! But once I did one the others followed! So it’s mostly gym clothes. Some better than others, but on average I need everything to sell and each thing to sell for £10 to make the £200……. I think that is more than a little optimistic but we shall see. I’ll keep you updated!

    Ok so today I need to go to lidl. I don’t really want to spend more than £26.50 but I need cat food so I’m not sure how realistic that is. That’s how much I need to get to the £100 on the lidl app to get £2 off. I need all the usual stuff but OH is away next week so dinners should be cheap and simple.

    A bag of porridge oats would be a lot cheaper than buying 5 porridge pots!  Takes about 2 minutes to cook in the microwave.

    It would but it’s for OH to take on his course with him to eat in his hotel room to stop him from spending £10 on breakfast, so happy to pay the 29p on these.
