Not sure if this is a daft observation but couldn’t you spray your trainers with a waterproof spray? I am not really an outdoorsy person 😂 so don’t know if this would work! X3

DH has prepped a load of listings so I'll try and get those on today. He's also sold 5 items and 3 have paid so that's some stuff going - all good!
I've opened up two new savings accounts this morning to develop some pots 'out of sight' of my main current account. I'm hoping that I won't be so inclined to dip into them. They are both a decent fixed rate as well, so that should be an incentive not to withdraw."Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do".

DH has been a busy bee today decluttering, so that's great news! Long may it continue.
I've done 21 listings for him, and he's prepped a load of the kids stuff to which I will try and get on soon. The 5 items have been paid for and posted.
Hopefully we'll get some good sales as we have quite a stash of boxes built up from Christmas shopping and I'd like to see the back of them "Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do".

Great PADing and listing too - fingers crossed for lots of sales.
I love savings pots for some proper incentive to see the figures building up - and getting a reasonable interest rate on them is even better too.🎉 MORTGAGE FREE (First time!) 30/09/2016 🎉 And now we go again…New mortgage taken 01/09/23 🏡

Thank you. I’m hoping that with a balanced budget I can actually leave them to grow properly and earn some interest! Its never happened before.EssexHebridean said:Great PADing and listing too - fingers crossed for lots of sales.
