    You're selling the Wii? Hmm how much for? Might well be interested in that!

    Well I dont quite know yet gem but I was going to stick it on ebay (original console, box, remote covers (not offical wii ones as my console is so old), and loads of downloaded retro games and wii sports) with an extra nunchuck starting price £140/£150. Then I have wii fit and board, wii play and extra remote and a few other games.

    Septembers holiday is the 20th, and then I have one in october the same dates (about). Ou is still going (maybe). However I think I missed the posting for the first course (fingers crossed they have got it). I will defo do the first course if I am not too late but the acountancy one I will have to pull my finger out to get enough cash together but I will try my hardest :D

    I'd be very wary of selling a console on Ebay, it's almost as dodgy as mobiles. But that sounds like a reasonable price

    Dont worry gem, I have done it loads of times. I ahve just sold my brothers xbox on there but I know teh signs and I think this oens a dodgy one... time will tell. If I cant get rid of it on ebay know another 2 ladys that may want it so I am sur to get rid of it. If all else fails I can stick it in the paper or trade it in :D

    oooh PaP - how exciting!! :) I think you are doing the best thing. You've obviously thought loads about it, and I am sure that you will be able to find something else easily, especially with your determination :)

  • rog ~ awww you didnt miss that much. Well if its wrong I will find out soon enough but I need to get out of there, asap. So here goes.

    sea ~ Thanks, yep thought loads and loads about it. I have put itoff before but its time now. Lets hope so regarding the new job.

    Well a tiny weany set back today. I didnt cancel my standing orders for my savings in enough time. This leaves me with next to nothing till next payday :eek: However I can get £35 transferred back as soon as it hits my other account and the other amount I can get when my saving matures in september. It just means that the money I have put aside for clothes will need to be streched a bit more :T Seems easy.
