Just an idea. I posted my house on marketplace as I'd seen other people do it. I used estate agent pics and put the link to their listing and it generated a lot of views quickly.

Thank you DFW I will give it a go as no harm in trying. Booked a trip to the tip for later in the week to get rid of some more bits in the garage. Hoping to make better use of it and it will allow us to move things into it rather than having things cluttering up the house. Really struggling to find any other decent houses within my price range that has everything we have already / need from a house, or is cheap enough that we could make it into our dream house.
Just collected DD2 from band, so its shower and bed. Back to sorting things out in the morningMe, DD1 19, DS 17, DD2 14, Debt Free 04/18, Single Mum since 11/19

Had a day pottering around and clearing up here and there. Managed to get the washing all done and dry on the line. Cut the grass again out the back but this time shorter. Hopefully it will be lovely again by the open day.
DD2 has been at the library all day doing a craft activity and has come home happy and well fed. We really do appreciate these activities that are put on for the children. I know she would not have attended if they required money as it is just not there, especially if it had been all 3 of the kids. Thankfully it is only really DD2 now that needs entertaining on the odd day.
Managed to collect some bread rolls and salad last night from olio so this has postponed the need to shop for another day. Having a pasta bake with some salad on the side for dinner this evening. I am still working on my meal plan / shopping list and working out how to stay within my budget.
XH has paid his weekly sum which is good and tomorrow is payday so I will be able to move amounts around a little. I also came across another voucher for pizza hut today when clearing up. I have decided that next time we will get an order to go as not enough to all eat at the buffet but a takeaway pizza will always be welcome.
I need to work on my surveys and competitions more while I am off, as I have no where near the amount of vouchers ready for bdays and christmas that is now getting closer. DS will also be 18 this year so I need to get going on his photo book.Me, DD1 19, DS 17, DD2 14, Debt Free 04/18, Single Mum since 11/19
