    sold a skirt for 99p plus £2.50 postage packaging etc. got loads of bags from freecycle so just postage and fee hopefully made £2 profit. oh and it wasn't my skirt got it out the jumble sale pile

    Hi, well done re trainers you lucky thing, am v jealous re puppy, I would love to get a dog but spend so much time working I think it would be unfair to get one at the moment, it's one of the things I have promised myself when I can finally manage with just one job. I have loads of things I could ebay but not very technically minded and busy with work at the moment, but it's certainly something I will look into if ican get someone to help me. Am having a low spend day today, don't think I will ever manage a no spend one, just bread and milk today.
    Not sure if someone has already offered, but if you want some help with ebaying PM me - i wasn't too technically savvy to begin with but its pretty straightforward :A

    perhaps i'll try them first, i didnt get on well with the books but that was because of the postage,cds are lighter!!
