    Hi amy-i remember making poms poms when i was little-great fun! hope your cats take more than 2 mins to wreck them bless them!

    jen-i have almost same amount of nectar points as you. basically nles you get a deal voucher they are worth 500 points =£2.50 at either sainsburys or argos. I am going to save mine up and use to buy sainsburys gift vouchers for xmas presents coz there was nothing in the deals that interested me or i needed loadsa points to get. just paid £27 of the debt so off to update my sig woo-hooo!

    That's brilliant. But be wary. I would not send them 1st class recorded-if they went missing you're only insured up to £30 or £34 I can't remember which. Send them special delivery-it is worth paying the extra. When you sell them make sure payment clears before sending-all the usual stuff really.
    Also if someone is offering you £90 today and they are sold out...I don't know if you would get more by leaving it to run or not. You could try cxhecking on completed listings to see how much they have gone for previously

    I have just checked on the current items and you should too, the bids are looking good for the others so far. However, it's your decision as to whether you think it is a good enough offer. good luck

    yep I'm now on £2522- I'm hoping next month it will be below the 2k mark , how are u doing jen are u still on target? Was wondering earlier what to call the debt/savings thread when we start it, I don't think it should be moneymabels blah blah thread as unlike this one it won't be just me starting it . We need to think of a name for our little group and name it after that , what does everyone think ?
